Hey there, it’s National Plan for a Vacation Day! I’m so happy to be with you for it! The very first time I used a travel advisor (which just happened to be Denville Travel), I was so confused. Our travel advisor was putting so much work in to our vacation and I didn’t have to pay for it? Huh? How can that not be a scam? The answer is simple, but not necessarily readily obvious, so here it is: there is travel advisor commission built into the cost of every single vacation you take, whether you use one or not. Book on your own? The location keeps the commission for themselves. Book through Costco? Who knows what happens to that commission, but you definitely won’t get any assistance. When I plan your vacation, I treat it like my own. I do my research, I use my expertise, I stay on top of deadlines and new information, and I do everything within my power to make sure that your vacation experience is the best that it can be. Sometimes people will ask “Well, if I book with you, do you have access to special deals?” The answer is most likely, “no.” Once in a while I may, and sometimes there is a small amenity for booking through a travel advisor. But what you really get is someone to carry the mental load for you. And really, isn’t that what we all need right now the most? Where do you want to go?
