Is it time to renew your passport? Here are a few do’s and don’ts tips!

DON’T wait until it’s expired.

DO try to start the process at least nine months before

DO check your expiry date before booking a trip. Some destinations require passports that are valid for at least six months after your departure date. Some airlines won’t allow you to board if you don’t meet this requirement.

DO keep an eye on processing times. Right now, renewals can take anywhere from 5-11 weeks.

DO work with a travel pro like me, so your travels are stress-free. I keep an eye on expiry dates for my clients’ passports BEFORE we book.

📌 save this post for later!

We're currently working on an itinerary for Royal Caribbean (we've had lots of requests for RCCL's new ships!) and we thought we would share one thing we always recommend to my cruisers as part of their itinerary. We always recommend choosing an itinerary that has a port stop to "A Perfect Day at CoCoCay." 🚢🏖️💙

This private island has something for everybody! There are places to get your adventure on as well as lay back and relax! It's perfect for families and adults, too. Your cruise dining and beverage package covers your meals and beverages while you visit. Our clients always come home raving about this port stop!

Quick question before I get back to work, is cruising with Royal Caribbean on your bucket list?

Wondering exactly what we travel advisors do? Wonder no more! Here’s what my client had to say about my travel planning services after their trip to Europe on a River Cruise!

"Kim and her staff did a fantastic job in planning our Covid delayed honeymoon for June 2023. We spent 9 days island hoping in Greece and then connected with a Viking River cruise in Zurich that took us in the Rhine and Moselle River and concluded in Paris. The agency was there 24/7 for us and helped with any issues that arose. All we had to do was vacation!" -Dan & Lori

Honeymoon Travel Tip: Don’t copy someone else’s itinerary 💜

It can be tempting with all of the wedding to-do’s to simply copy someone else’s itinerary for your honeymoon. Your best friends may have loved hiking in Peru and your sister loved lazing on the beach at an all-inclusive for a week, but this may not be the best fit for you.

Think carefully about your interests and what you both genuinely want out of your honeymoon before you decide on a destination, so you get the honeymoon that will be the most memorable for YOU.

🌍Long Post alert! 🌍

What's it like to work with me? Read On.

💜 I am a Travel Advisor. Booking your trip with a travel advisor may or may not cost more than booking it yourself, the benefits of using a travel advisor can be priceless. Ask anyone who's been stuck in an airport because of a mix-up or canceled flight how invaluable the expertise of a travel advisor can be.

If you choose me as your travel designer, please know.....

💜 I'm available for all of your travel needs, from booking a hotel package to planning your most exotic vacations. Also, I often have access to complimentary amenities at resorts and with cruise lines because of my industry connections.

💜 If something goes amiss when you’re on your trip, I am available to help you. Please call or email me immediately so I can fix it. Don’t be shy and say you didn’t want to make a fuss. You’ve paid money for this vacation and I’m your advocate. Issues can typically be fixed quite easily and that’s what I’m here for.

💜 When you compare vacation packages that I can offer you with what’s available online travel agencies or discount website, please know that you’re probably not comparing apples to apples. The resort I’ve selected is in a locale I think you will like, based on what you’ve told me. The room I have reserved for you is guaranteed in its category, meaning when you check in, you won’t be given inferior accommodations. Plus, if you’re looking at a website that brags that it has the lowest pricing available, you’ll likely be getting the lowest quality room available. Trust me.

💜 My favorite part of this job, and something that the internet can’t do, is talk to you and listen to your wish list and trip priorities. I consider your preferences and match you to your perfect vacation.

💜 I travel-A LOT. That means that I have experienced and have first-hand knowledge and reviews of destinations, hotels and resorts that you may be interested in.

💜 When you’re online and you see a deal that looks too good to be true, it probably is. I have spent the last 5 years building personal relationships with hotel managers and staff, giving me leverage to get you things you can’t get on your own, such as that “sold out” room or the connecting rooms that the online sites say are unavailable.

💜 If you are travelling with a group, I can be the go-to person to coordinate everything so that you can just enjoy your trip. Discounts, VIP extras, and everything else is my job-not yours.

💜 Do make travel a priority in your life. Every moment is precious and if you keep putting off that getaway, you may never do it. Make memories while you can.
