Felicity Benn Holidays

My name is Felicity (Flis) and I'm an independent travel expert at award-winning company, Travel Counsellors. Ready to turn your travel dreams into reality?
(25)

I’m Flis (Felicity) and I love to make people happy. Based in Gloucestershire, I bring over 20 years of experience as a personal travel consultant, having managed high street stores for First Choice, Virgin and Thomas Cook before embarking on my journey as an independent advisor in 2019. I'm surprisingly well-travelled despite an irrational fear of flying, and my extensive knowledge helps me guide

clients to the perfect destinations throughout the year. As a self-described ‘positive pants', I cherish the client journey and view all returning customers as friends who embark on fantastic trips. Holidays are for everyone, and I recognise the uniqueness of each individual. Your time is precious, and I am 100% committed to ensuring my clients have the best experiences. My top priority is ensuring we're on the same page. While I specialise in arranging family and celebration holidays, honeymoons, cruises, inclusive and accessible travel, I can organise most trips, including corporate travel. You’re not just a number to me, so no matter how big or small the request, I focus on getting it done right, even if it means checking in customers at 23:45 on New Year’s Eve! My values - integrity, respect, reliability, honesty, responsibility and transparency - form the foundation of my service. Let’s chat!

Another fantastic evening with CotswoldNetworking! It was great meeting some incredible people, learning, growing, and making meaningful connections.

Huge shoutout to rootsandseedskitchengarden for their amazing contributions—both the venue and the pizzas were top-notch!
Incredible talks from projectgreenproductions and fionascottmedia - I took to key learning points away with me!

Busy days for me at the moment, but these events are always worth it!

🌞 Had a fantastic morning learning all about Jersey and Guernsey today with the wonderful Nicky Bird-Premier. There is so much to do: fantastic beaches, historical monuments, and great food choices! 🍴🏖️🏰

**My key takeaways:**

**Tennerfest:** Every October, local restaurants compete with amazing set menus for just £10! A foodie's dream come true! 🍽️✨

**Dog Friendly:** You all know how much my boys mean to me. It's great to know I can take them along and feel relaxed. These islands are super welcoming to our furry friends, which has definitely piqued my interest! 🐾💖

Can't wait to explore more! 🌊🐶

Such a great day yesterday Bristol Marriott Royal Hotel with Travel Counsellors. Lots of great ideas on how I can make the world of booking holidays and travelling even easier along with some great supplier stands that we had chance to connect with. A huge thank you to Virgin Voyages, Club Med, Simpson Travel, Hurtigruten, Hummingbird, DoSomethingDifferent.com, Solmar Villas and Encounter Latin America for your support and information! Another thanks to Destination Vancouver, SouthernWorld Vacations, Aruba Tourism Authority UK and Atrium Hotels & Resorts for giving us great location information.

This week is Deaf Awareness Week, which aims to bring to light the barriers that people who are Deaf and those with hearing loss, face in society. As I am learning sign language, I was an eager beaver in signing up to an online meeting with Paul Whittaker, OBE - along side my fellow Travel Counsellors. What fun we had! Paul gave us some facts and figures and engaged us in learning how to sign one of my favourite songs. I have a few wonderful deaf clients, and I offer Zoom calls where the environment is just right for you to be able to read my lips. If you prefer we can talk via email or text. The world is there for everyone to explore, my job is to simply make it easier. #DeafAwarenessWeek #deafawareness

Getting out of my comfort zone and becoming more visible was one of New Year's resolutions, and as a first step, I have made a little video explaining why I am committed to becoming an accessible travel specialist. Bringing the gift of travel to everyone - to people of all shapes, sizes, and abilities - is a subject close to my heart and I wanted to share why...

My Story

Hello!

For as long as I remember I have always had a passion for travel. From walking into my first kids club to finding my dream job, straight out of work experience in a travel agency.

From the age of 15 I have built up over 20 years experience, travelling the globe and working for some of the most well known tour operators in the industry.

I feel that times have now changed, people’s lives have got busier and the expectations are higher. This is what has led me to Holidaysplease.

The choices available on the market are staggering and can be overwhelming and time consuming. Here is where I step in!

I plan to use all of my experience to make your holiday journey easy and hassle free, leaving you with just one job.... to enjoy your time making life lasting memories.

I pride myself on customer service and want to make sure every element of your trip is right, that is why my working hours are flexible, allowing you to contact me to answer your questions as they pop into your head day or night. There is no such thing as a silly question, I want to make sure every detail is covered with you and we create the perfect trip together. You can count on me to give you an honest and experienced answer.

Being truly independent, with a diverse choice of suppliers to hand, I can help turn your travel dreams into reality and find that unique trip that is right for you. Your holidays will be fully ATOL and ABTA protected and you have the added bonus of knowing that Holidaysplease is voted Best Online Travel Agency 2019 and scores 9.9 out of 10 on Trust Pilot. Regardless of what you are looking for, from a weekend break in Cornwall, to touring Sri Lanka, relaxing on a Caribbean Beach, to exploring the Baltics on a cruise, every customer is valued. I can help you explore new places or rediscover firm favourites.... the choice is yours.

Life is a journey, contact me to discuss where your travels will take you next.
