📢I HAVE EXCITING NEWS!📢

I am BEYOND THRILLED to share that I have been invited to sail on the Disney Treasure’s special preview cruise along with three other advisors from The Charming Travel Co!! ✨✨ This is an incredible opportunity and I could not be more grateful!

🙋🏼‍♀️ What is a preview cruise? DCL has created this sailing especially for travel advisors, influencers, and other media and we sail BEFORE the general public. If you’ve been with me for a while, you may remember that I also had this same opportunity to sail on the Disney Wish in 2022 🌟

I am most excited about the adult lounges!!
👻Haunted Mansion and 🐘Jungle Cruise are my two favorite attractions at the Magic Kingdom and I cannot wait to see them come to life
as a lounge 🍸

‼️IMPORTANT‼️
I would not be embarking on this adventure without YOU, my amazing clients! Your trust in me to book your Disney cruises this year made this invitation possible. Thank you thank you thank you for choosing me as your travel advisor! 🥰🥰🥰

🧳 Soooo get ready for a sneak peek into the ultimate Disney cruise experience this December!! I will be bringing YOU insights, ship tours, highlights, and exclusive tips and recommendations ⚓️⚓️⚓️

You won’t want to miss this!!

🏰 When I am talking with clients about Walt Disney World and I mention the Festival of Fantasy parade, I still feel like this is relatively new.

Then I look back at these photos that I took in March 2015 and realize that I am very, very, very, very wrong 🤣🤣🤣

10/01/2024

The results are in!! 💰💰💰💰

After an entire day of working to update reservations and making sure my clients knew all of the options that were available to them, they saved a total of $3420!!!

A lot of my clients chose to stay at their same resorts and use the discount, some chose to stay at their current resort instead of getting a discount (because it was not available), one client upgraded to a brand new room with a theme park view, two of them got upgraded views for less than their original price, and a couple of clients booked entirely new trips!

It was definitely a successful day around here! 😎😎😎

10/01/2024

🚨New offers for Walt Disney World 🚨

✔️Save up to $200 per night on a 3-night, 2-day Walt Disney Travel Company room-and-ticket package at select Disney Resort hotels, valid for arrivals most nights from February 26 to June 30, 2025.
Packages may be available for longer lengths of stay.

🏰🏰🏰🏰🏰🏰🏰🏰🏰

✔️Save up to 25% on rooms for stays most nights from February 23 to April 30, 2025.
Save up to 20% on rooms for stays most Sunday to Thursday nights from January 1 to February 20, 2025.

If you are already booked with me, you can go back to sleep!! I GOT YOU 😉
I am currently working through all of my client’s reservations and will be in touch this morning with your new savings 💰💰💰💰

Friends, if you want to travel for spring break, PLEASE BOOK NOW!! 🙏🏻 I know it seems like it's a long way away (especially with the cold weather), but things are booking up and airfare is INSANE. Like seriously insane. Or just not available. 🏖️ I just booked a family of 4 in the absolute LAST room at Beaches Ocho Rios. There are literally no more rooms left for her travel dates at the end of March. This was most likely a cancellation that she was able to grab!! 😮 🍹This is the year for all-inclusives and the inventory is starting to dwindle. I have a group that booked last summer for THIS spring break and there were already some resorts that were booked for their travel dates. Disney, Universal, and cruises still have some availability, but it will not last long. ✨Let's get your spring break trip booked ASAP!!✨ ➡️ linktr.ee/charmingjamie #springbreak2024 #bookthetrip #waltdisneyworld #disneycruiseline #disneyland #thecharmingtravelco #universalorlando
