As many of you know, I have been travelling quite a bit the last few months. I have traveled both domestically and internationally, by air, car, and cruise ship. There have been so many questions regarding the different protocols involved and if it's even worth it. For me, it definitely is. Is it inconvenient to maybe wear a mask, get the covid vaccine, fill out extra paperwork, show a negative covid test within either 24 or 72 hours, based on your vaccination status? Sure it is, but sometimes in life, there are inconveniences. Everyone has to do what they are comfortable with. For me , that is to travel. The few extra steps we need to take, while annoying , are definitely worth experiencing other cultures, meeting new people, and enjoying breathtaking scenery. Travel gives us memories to last a lifetime. This is also why it is more advantageous than ever to book through a Travel Agent. Many of us are traveling so we have first hand knowledge of how things work and what extra steps are needed. We keep up on the ever changing protocols on each destination. Many of us don't charge any fees, so you pay the same or oftentimes less than booking on your own. Would you rather have an anonymous person in a call center to rely on if things go wrong, or an agent that you can reach out to without holding for hours?

Carnival’s Mardi Gras

At 6,500 passengers and 180,000 gross tons, with features ranging from the environmental (engines powered by liquefied natural gas) to the passenger (a roller coaster ringing the top deck) it's easily one of the most anticipated cruise ships of the year.

5 Things to Watch for During COVID Travel

What to watch out for as your prepare for COVID travel
Navigating the new challenges of COVID travel may seem like a daunting task. But with a little careful planning (and the help of your wonderful travel agent) you will be rewarded with your long-awaited paradise!

1. Missed connections
Missed connections are difficult during any trip, but they can be even trickier during the COVID era. If you miss your connecting flight and get stuck in a country that was not your final destination you might not be able to leave the airport. Build in a little extra time than you normally would in order to make all your flights. Know the COVID regulations for every country and city on your itinerary, not just your final destination.

2. Schedule changes
Schedule changes are right up there with missed connections. However, in this case, airline schedule changes are totally out of your (and your travel agent’s) control. What causes airline schedule changes? In a normal travel climate, schedule changes happen due to weather, staffing issues, mechanical failures and so much more. It’s complicated coordinating thousands of flight times, codeshares, and routes. Add COVID to the mix and things just get more complicated. As the demand for travel increases, new flights are added regularly. This causes everything to shift a bit. You can avoid frustrations by checking your flight status frequently and arriving at the airport early.

3. Different/changing COVID travel regulations
COVID travel regulations don’t just change by country. They change by province and even by city. We should know this well from observing the state mask mandates here in the US. But it is important to remember that other countries are also working through the details just like we are. One city at your destination may not have mask requirements while another not only requires masks but requires a specific kind of mask. Write down every place you will visit and double-check requirements as you approach your departure date. Things can change at any time.

4. Added paperwork
Lots of paperwork! Every destination is requiring different information to make sure they can host travelers as safely as possible. Whether it’s COVID test results, health screening forms, vaccination records, or an account of where you plan to go during your stay, every trip will require more paperwork than in the past. No one loves to do paperwork, but it’s important to keep in mind that your host country is only doing this to make sure they can continue to welcome tourists all year long. No one wants travel to shut down again! The best way to handle the added paperwork? Research and read the fine print to know what you need. Keep printed copies AND digital files as a backup.

5. Advanced reservation
While most tourist sites and restaurants have been open in the United States for a while, many countries around the world have been slower to ease back on restrictions. Because of this, you may find things like restaurants, entertainment, and excursions operating at a very limited capacity and or allowing tourists by reservation only. This might prove to be very helpful if you love to plan your trip out anyway. But if you are more of a spontaneous traveler, it might take a little extra planning.

Passport applications are currently taking up to 18 weeks to process!! Very few appointments available to expedite them.

Post borrowed from a fellow travel advisor. This is some of the best travel advice I’ve seen lately. It’s Spot On!!

“GUYS!!! We have to do better with warning our clients and our clients have to do better with realizing what’s going on in the world!!!!! These airlines, resorts, transportation companies all had to let go of HALF of their people last year due to Covid!! They are under staffed!!! There’s nothing they can do about that!!!! YOU HAVE TO PACK PATIENCE!!! At this point it might be more important than your passport!!! THEY ARE TRYING!!!! I don’t know what the future holds but right now everyone is bashing the wrong people!! At the end of the day NO ONE is to blame!!!

Some wise words from an AA flight attendant post…

“If you are flying anywhere this month, on any airline…
Pack snacks and PB&Js, bring a refillable water container, portable charger for your phone, a deck of cards or UNO, download extra movies on iPad, if you have wireless headsets also bring old school plug in type, bring a light blanket, go to the airport 1 extra hour earlier than you would have, bring your patience, and a mask. If you must travel with kids, go to Dollar Store and buy new toys they have never seen, give them these during delays. You can also buy the blow up arm floaties, to use as pillow or lumbar support for your back. Small portable fan or paper fan. A tennis ball to use to massage you aches.

Airlines don’t supply pillows or blankets anymore. There is no food onboard to buy or give, usually there is not enough beverages for 2nds.
Fill your water bottle in airport, or buy a bottle. There is not enough bottled water onboard to fill your container, nor are we allowed to fill it.

If you are booked on last flight of the day, be prepared that you might end up spending the night in airport.

Do not check your medicine or keys in your luggage.

Bring a Pen!! You may have to fill out forms, or need to write down info.

I have been in this business for 30 yrs and I have NEVER seen it this crazy! Every airline is short staffed, gate agents are working alone at gates for oversold flights, the wait times to get through to reservations are 3+ hours. Restaurants and stores can’t get people to work. Super long lines everywhere. LOTS of mechanical issues, weather, staffing issues none of which is due to frontline employees. They are as frustrated as you are. They are EXHAUSTED! This has been happening to them EVERYDAY for over a month, with no relief insight.

So I am asking you to BE VERY KIND TO EVERYONE. It’s always appreciated”
