How do travel agents get paid?

Unfortunately, I didn’t understand how travel agents make their livelihood, and I know there are people out there in that position now, so I thought I’d take a moment to explain.

I love talking Disney, and I love helping people - but it is also how I support my family. Agents do not have a salary; our income is 100% commission based. When I spend time providing multiple quotes and thoughtfully answering questions and providing valuable insight, only to have that information used for someone to book a trip on their own, my work goes unpaid. It is a frustration travel agents deal with far too often. The fact that booking through me costs *exactly* the same as booking directly through Disney adds to that frustration.

Disney includes the cost of an agent in their prices, so my help is something every single Disney guest is already paying for, whether they take advantage of it or not. This set up is a unique win-win situation not found in many industries, where you can support a small business without spending any more than you already are. I’ve heard people say “I like doing all the planning,” but when you use an agent, you can still do as much planning as you like! Several people also learned the hard way this past year how tough dealing with trip interruptions on your own can be.

Now, if you reach out to me to get quotes because you’re determining whether to go, that’s fine and part of why I’m here! If you end up opting not to go or possibly go at a later time, that’s just part of deciding on a vacation. It’s the inquiries I spend time on that end up in a booked trip that’s not through me that are - well, I’ll just say it - heartbreaking. This kind of thing is why I see more and more agents implementing a planning fee, to protect their time and work. I would prefer not to go that route, but I do understand it.

And one more thing worth noting, is that when a trip isn’t booked through me, I can no longer provide assistance, even with a “quick question.”

All of this is why, when I say “Thank you” to those who have booked with me, or plan to in the future, or have sent referrals my way, or support my page, I truly mean it.

You can’t know what you don’t know, just like I didn’t 13 years ago, so I thought I’d take the time to share this insight. Thank you for reading, and I look forward to help making more magical memories! Send us an email for a quote to get started.

Plan Ahead with Lightning Lane Entry at Walt Disney World Starting July 24.

At Walt Disney World, guests have told us they would prefer to have the option to do more of their planning before their theme park day. So, this summer we will make changes to our Disney Genie+ service and individual Lightning Lane entry, including new ways to plan ahead.

On July 24, Walt Disney World will introduce new, simpler names to provide more clarity for everyone. Disney Genie+ service will become Lightning Lane Multi Pass, while individual Lightning Lane will now be known as Lightning Lane Single Pass.

We will also be updating Lightning Lane passes to help guests:

Make Lightning Lane plans before you’re here, for added confidence.
Choose your experiences and times prior to purchasing, so you know what you’re getting.

Book Lightning Lane passes for multiple vacation days, all in a single day.

Here’s how Lightning Lane passes will work beginning July 24.

Lightning Lane Multi Pass
When guests purchase Lightning Lane Multi Pass, they may make up to 3 Lightning Lane selections in a theme park, in advance of your visit. They’ll also be able to choose available times as they make their selections. On the day of their visit, once they use a selection, they may check the My Disney Experience app for availability to make an additional selection.

Lightning Lane Single Pass

Lightning Lane Single Pass will work much like it does today, where guests can secure a time to ride one of our most highly demanded attractions, but they’ll now be able to make their purchase and plan in advance.

How to Plan Ahead
Guests staying at a Disney Resort hotel and other select hotels (Shades of Green Resort, Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Hotels) will be able to plan Lightning Lane passes up to 7 days in advance, for their entire stay (up to 14 days). All other guests can plan up to 3 days in advance. These advance purchase windows will let guests secure some of their must-do rides and experiences after they've had some time to decide what dining reservations they want to book and any other plans they may need to consider.

Guests may purchase a Lightning Lane Multi Pass, a Lightning Lane Single Pass or both. The app will also be updated to make it quicker and easier to purchase and plan, with fewer steps and a new option to purchase Lightning Lane Single Pass and Lightning Lane Multi Pass in one transaction.

Lightning Lane passes will blend features from our current services and the previously offered FastPass+ service, giving guests the choice to plan ahead and removing the hassle of planning during their vacation.

Here is a quick video demonstrating how Lightning Lane passes at Walt Disney World Resort will work:
