We are so excited to welcome Jessica to the Pirates & Princesses Travel team! 🏴‍☠️👑

Meet Jessica, your magical Disney travel agent with a lifelong passion for Disney adventures! Her earliest memory sparkles with the sight of Cinderella Castle transformed into a dazzling birthday cake for its 25th anniversary, igniting a love that’s taken her to Walt Disney World and Disney Cruise Line since childhood. From cheer competitions and pregnancy announcements to birthdays and solo trips, Jessica’s woven countless memories into Disney’s magic. After serving as an Army medic, she moved her family to Florida in August 2023, becoming a Walt Disney World passholder and relishing frequent park visits. As a devoted mom of three and a proud wife, Jessica brings her insider expertise to plan your perfect trip.

“The #1 question we get about Universal?
"How many days do we really need?"
Spoiler: It’s more than you think.

Because Universal Orlando isn’t just a quick park hop.
It’s a full vacation destination — with 3 incredible theme parks + waterpark.

And with Epic Universe opening May 22, 2025, Universal is about to get even bigger, busier, and more exciting.

Trying to squeeze it all into one day?
Sure… you might catch a few highlights.
But the full experience - The memories your family will talk about for years?
You’ll miss them if you’re rushing through.

The “Perfect” Universal Orlando Itinerary (Our Insider Guide):
🎢 3 theme parks: Universal Studios Florida, Islands of Adventure, and Epic Universe (opening May 22, 2025)
🌊 Optional add-on: Volcano Bay — the best water park in Orlando (and honestly worth its own day!)
🛌 Not doing Volcano Bay? We still recommend a rest day for pool time, CityWalk dining, or simply catching your breath between the thrills.

The real question isn’t “Can we do it all in one day?”
It’s: “How much do you want to actually enjoy it?”

The best vacations aren’t rushed.
They’re planned right — with time to soak it all in.

⚡️ Ready to build your perfect Universal itinerary?
Message us anytime — our concierge planning services are complimentary when you book through Pirates & Princesses Travel.






P.S. Not staying on-site? Here’s a little insider tip: When you purchase 2+ day park tickets through Pirates & Princesses Travel, you still get Early Park Admission —
✨ A perk you won’t get when buying tickets directly through Universal.

Just one of the ways we help you get the most out of your trip.

Real Experience. Real Expertise. Real Magic.

Four of our Pirates & Princesses Travel advisors are sailing the Disney Wish this week — not just for the fun (though there’s plenty of that!)… but because we believe the best way to serve our clients is to know these vacations firsthand.

We’re not just reading brochures.
We’re not guessing from Google.

Our advisors are living the experiences we help plan every day — from rotational dining to kids’ clubs, to those little ship details that make your sailing feel extra magical.

Because when you book with Pirates & Princesses Travel, you’re not getting random tips…
You’re getting guidance from a team who has walked the decks, tasted the menus, and felt the magic themselves.

✨ Planning your first cruise?
✨ Or your fifth… maybe even your tenth?
✨ Wondering which ship or itinerary is right for your family?
✨ Curious about what’s included or when to book for the best pricing?

We’ve got you covered — with experience, strategy, and a whole lot of heart.

12:00 AM.
That’s when booking opens for Disney Cruise Line excursions and onboard activities. ⏰🚢

While our client was fast asleep…
her Pirates & Princesses Travel advisor was logged in, ready to grab the top three experiences on her wish list.

12:01 — the site was spinning.
12:02 — still spinning.

But here’s the thing:
Our client wasn’t worried.
She wasn’t refreshing the app or stressing.
She was dreaming of her vacation — not fighting with Disney tech.

Because we were the ones staying up, working behind the scenes, pulling out every trick we know (including what we lovingly call “the back door” through our Disney Travel Agent portal).

By 12:07 AM, all of her reservations were booked. ✅

We know that sometimes…
👉🏻 Technology glitches happen.
👉🏻 Booking windows open at midnight.
👉🏻 Things don’t always go as planned.

But when you book your Disney Cruise with Pirates & Princesses Travel,
you’re not the one staying up late to figure it out.
We are.

Our clients get more than just reservations —
They get a dedicated advisor in their corner, working behind the scenes to make sure their vacation feels magical from the very first step.

Because as much as we all hope nothing goes wrong…Sometimes life (and Disney technology) has other ideas.
That’s when having the right person on your team makes all the difference.

The best vacations aren’t luck.
They’re planned with care (and a little pixie dust ✨).

She really wanted Cinderella’s Royal Table… but it was sold out.

One of our Pirates & Princesses Travel clients had her heart set on Cinderella’s Royal Table for breakfast during their Magic Kingdom day — which just happened today.

But when we booked the trip, it was already completely full.

She was disappointed… but her PPT travel advisor told her, “I’ll keep checking.”

And she did.
Just one day before their visit, a last-minute cancellation popped up.
Her advisor grabbed it in seconds — and sent her the confirmation.

Her reply?
“This is absolutely PERFECT. Thank you so much!!!!”

That’s the kind of magic we’re proud to create. ✨

At Pirates & Princesses Travel, our clients don’t just get bookings — They get a dedicated travel advisor who keeps watching, checking, and cheering for their trip like it’s their own.

Because it’s not just about having a plan.
It’s about having someone in your corner.

From hard-to-get dining to smart park strategy, our team is here to help you plan stress-free — and with a little extra magic.

✨ The best trips don’t just happen — they’re planned with care.

Let’s make yours magical from the very first step.

Planning a Universal trip in 2025? With EPIC Universe opening May 22nd, it’s about to get way more exciting… and a lot more overwhelming!‼️

Here are 4 mistakes we’re helping clients avoid 👇

🎢 Booking too late: Top resorts will sell out FAST — especially since they include Early Park Admission.
💡 Pro Tip: Universal only offers Early Park Admission with stand-alone tickets when you book exclusively through a travel agent — like us! So even if you’re staying off-site, when you book 2+ day tickets with Pirates & Princesses Travel, you still get in early. 🥳

🎟️ Skipping Park-to-Park tickets: If you want to ride the Hogwarts Express, you need them. A lot of families miss this one!

🚫 Underestimating the crowds: With a brand-new park opening, Universal is about to be busier than ever. You’ll want a solid plan — and we’ve got one ready.

🗓️ Winging it at EPIC Universe: It’s a brand-new park — and we already have the early info, tips, and tools to help you do it right from the start.

✨ We help families plan smarter, not harder — so you can just show up and enjoy.

I was talking to a client who just returned from their first Disney Cruise—a client who’s no stranger to cruising, but always with other lines. Their exact words? “No one takes care of you like Disney does.”

And it’s true. When you sail with Disney Cruise Line, you’re not just getting a vacation—you’re getting unmatched service, exceptional quality, and magic in every detail!‼️

Think:
🍽️ Rotational dining where your servers follow you each night, remember your preferences, accommodate allergies with care, and even cut your kids’ steak so you can simply enjoy your meal.
🛏️ Spacious staterooms with smart layouts, split bathrooms, and beds so comfy—yes, people literally go home and order them.
🎭 World-class entertainment from Broadway-style shows and fireworks at sea to character moments you’ll remember forever.
👧🏻👦🏻 Kids clubs that are truly next level, plus quiet, luxurious spaces just for adults.
✨ And that signature Disney service that makes you feel seen, valued, and completely cared for.

Sure, you might find a lower price elsewhere—but with Disney, you get what you pay for… and you won’t leave disappointed. The value speaks for itself in every magical moment!‼️✨

Thinking about a Disney Cruise? Let’s find the perfect sailing for you.🛳️ Or tell us—what’s one thing you loved (or would look forward to) about Disney’s service?

Imagine stepping into worlds so vivid, so immersive, you’ll swear you’ve left Earth entirely. That’s Epic Universe — Universal Orlando’s most mind-blowing theme park yet. Trust us, you do NOT want to be the one watching this magic unfold from social media when Epic opens on May 22nd!‼️

Here’s why everyone’s buzzing about it:
🎮 Super Nintendo World – Race through Mario Kart in real life. Punch ? blocks. Enter Bowser’s castle. Yes, it’s all real.
🪄 The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic – Step into 1920s wizarding London and cast spells like a pro.
🐉 How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk – Soar with dragons, feast like a Viking, and live your DreamWorks fantasy. You can even meet Hiccup and Toothless.
✨ Celestial Park – This stunning central hub is a mix of futuristic elegance, cosmic beauty, and next-level rides that’ll leave your jaw on the floor.

➕ Plus: brand new hotels, out-of-this-world dining, cutting-edge tech, and experiences that completely redefine what a theme park can be.
