Embrace your wanderlust because it's National Want to Get Away Day! ✈️ Let's share our wanderlust destinations and inspire each other to explore the world!

Mine is most definitely French Polynesia, like Bora Bora in an overwater bungalow! It's the perfect bucket list trip.

Whether it's a remote beach, a bustling city, or a cozy cabin in the woods, where's your dream escape?

TRAVEL TIP TUESDAY: Do you use AIRPORT LOUNGES?

If you’re flying commercial, let’s continue to think of ways to make it more comfortable from start to finish. I love airports that level you up!

Departure lounges are KEY 🔑 to making the wait beyond security easier. Some of them offer showers, include some food/drinks and wifi.

Consider planning ahead and booking a lounge space if available for departure to enjoy your vacation until the last minute. Let me know if you want to add this to your booking if it's available in your departure airport!

What I'm Working On!

I had past clients reach out to me to work with them on a multi-generational trip. They wanted to take their kids and grandkids on a vacation but they weren't sure whether to choose a cruise or an all-inclusive at first.

Their priorities were:
🏖️ BEAUTIFUL beach!
🌊 Calm, more clear water
🛝 Water slides for the kids
🎉 Kid's club with lots of activities
📸 A place to make memories 😍

I think we've landed on the PERFECT resort for them in the Dominican Republic! It's on the southern part of the island on the Caribbean Sea where sargassum is hardly ever present and the beach is usually that stunning turquoise calm water. It's a perfect fit 🎯

🌴 Planning a Long Weekend Getaway? Here's How to Maximize Your Time! 🌴

Are you craving a quick escape to the sun-soaked beaches of Mexico or the picturesque islands of the Caribbean? As a travel specialist in Mexico and the Caribbean, I've got you covered with tips to make the most of your long weekend away!

✈️ Short Flight Options: Opt for destinations with short flight times, like Cancun, Cozumel, or Punta Cana, to maximize your time on the ground and minimize travel fatigue.

🏨 Stay Close to the Airport: Choose accommodations near the airport to reduce transit time upon arrival. Pro-tip: Look for hotels offering complimentary airport shuttles for added convenience.

🛏️ Request Early Check-In: Arrive early and request early check-in to drop off your luggage and start exploring without delay. Many hotels are accommodating and will do their best to accommodate early arrivals.

🕒 Get the Latest Flight Back: Extend your weekend by booking the latest flight back home. This gives you an extra day to soak up the sun, indulge in local cuisine, or explore hidden gems off the beaten path.

🌺 Why Choose a Long Weekend Getaway? Clients love the flexibility and affordability of long weekend trips. It's the perfect way to satisfy your wanderlust without using up too many vacation days. Plus, with stunning beaches, vibrant culture, and endless adventures waiting for you, why wait for a full week off?

🌟 Plant the Seed: Whether it's sipping margaritas in Mexico or lounging on the pristine beaches of the Caribbean, start planning your next long weekend getaway to your favorite niche destination. With a little preparation and a sense of adventure, the possibilities are endless!

Ready to escape the everyday and immerse yourself in paradise? Let's make your long weekend dreams a reality! Drop a comment or message me to start planning your next adventure. 🌴☀️✈️

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "5 STAR" ALL-INCLUSIVE RESORTS CAN MEAN DIFFERENT THINGS.

They do not always represent the most luxurious resorts, but instead depict resorts that have certain amenities (for example spa, room service, etc.) Because of this, not all 5 star resorts are created equally.

Contact me before you book your next vacation so we can make sure we put you in the right resort based on your needs and not just based on stars!

🤔 Ever wondered is TSA Pre-Check is worth it? So, what's your take on TSA Pre-Check?

👇 Share your thoughts below!

💡 Did you know that you can turbocharge your TSA experience with a Digital ID at select airports? 📱✅

BWI is a participating airport and embracing Digital ID with TSA Pre-Check! 👍

😎 The real gem? You get to breeze through shorter lines like a travel pro!

Sure, TSA lines are usually quick, but with the growing popularity, I've seen some surprisingly long lines lately....but I've never waited more than 2 to 5 minutes!

I LOVE TSA Pre-Check and am definitely renewing this year!

What are YOUR favorite travel must-haves? Share your best travel products in the comments!

I sent out my latest newsletter today and included my new FAVORITE travel product, especially if you like to carry-on when you travel. These incredible nearly lay-flat toiletry bottles!

I used these little bottles on our trip to Vermont and found that I could pack ALL of these, PLUS many other items into my TSA approved clear zipper pouches.

Now we didn't fly for this trip, BUT I can't wait to see how these will completely change my carry-on packing from here on out.

My cruise loving clients came to me wanting to sail on the Carnival Pride in June with their son and can't wait for the warmth of the Bahamas!

They love the smaller size of the Carnival Pride with two super fun water slides, awesome options for dining (including Guy's Burger Joint), and of course, the chance to win big in the casino!

I had the chance to tour this ship several years ago and it's the perfect size....especially if you're a first time cruiser or don't like huge ships.

I fell in love with the winding paths, abundant wildlife, and the stunning beach of Catalonia Royal Tulum, an adults only all inclusive resort just south of Cancun, Mexico.

The lobby of Catalonia Royal Tulum, an adults only all inclusive resort is stunning! I love the palapa and authentic Mexican vibe of this resort. It is SO peaceful and tranquil and I was blown away when I left.

Check out a Privileged Deluxe Suite at Catalonia Royal Tulum, an adults only all inclusive resort just south of Cancun, Mexico. This resorts offers a TON of value and is in a prime location for some of the best Riviera Maya excursions.

I stayed for four nights at the Catalonia Grand Costa Mujeres and I LOVED the looks of this quiet pool. I can totally picture my kids swimming, jumping, and playing on all the different ledges and steps. And better still, you can easily grab a drink at the swim up bar, extra strong or non-alcoholic. #cataloniagrandcostamujeres #costamujeres #mexicovacation #travelagent #quietpool #vacation #charthouse #travel #antigua #vacationinspiration #travelgram #mexico #cancun #dominicanrepublic #muchneededvacation #travelblogger #caribbean #mexicocity #travelphotography #jamaica #travelingwith5kids #traveltheworld #thanksgivingvacation #traveladdict #aruba #flyingwithkids #travelling #flightdelays #travelholic
