Yesterday, the world experienced a global IT outage, starting with my travel portal's payment issues on Thursday. I received an email from the airline about my own flight cancellation and messages from clients who were set to depart for Japan. After researching, I adopted a mindset of doing my best in an uncontrollable situation. I managed to get my clients on the next available flight, provided them with hotel and food vouchers, and notified their hotel in Tokyo about the situation.
I was also able to get my own flight rebooked. Though it was re- routed, I was thankful that I got a seat on a flight.
This is where a travel advisor can advocate for you, providing value beyond just booking services. I even helped a former client's daughter get a flight home with just one phone call. We don't charge extra for our services; we are paid by the suppliers we book for you.
Travel insurance is essential, covering more than just accidents. It's about ensuring your travel experience is secure, including instances like this where you might be stuck at an airport with no food or clean clothes. If you insure your phone and car, shouldn't you insure your vacation as well?
My day ended with this beautiful sight as my plane was starting to descend. I got to our 2nd home close to midnight (which was 3 am in Los Angeles). But I slept good knowing my clients are in good hands.
I say Go WiD Flo Travel can help you. Why not let me do it for you?
