Checking weather and flight updates daily (even on vacation!)

When you book with me, you have someone in your corner helping you with backup plans during these stressful situations.

As Hurricane Milton approaches, our thoughts are with everyone in its path, preparing for the storm. It’s such a stressful time, especially for those with travel plans this week.

Right now, we’re working with our clients to figure out the best course of action—whether that’s moving their trip, adjusting plans, or canceling altogether. This is where having a travel agent truly makes a difference. When situations like this happen, you don’t have to worry about being on hold or scrambling to change things last minute. Pineapple Escapes has it covered so you can focus on staying safe.

If you need support with your travel plans, don’t forget we are here for you. 🍍💜🍍

If you emailed me while I was away and are still awaiting a response, please know that I am not ignoring you but my clients currently traveling are taking priority. (Hopefully, this makes you more comfortable booking with me even if you waited longer than normal for a quote).

I am still catching up and making my way through my inbox but I am working primarily on my clients currently in destination or traveling this weekend. I have spent 1.5 hours on the phone so far this morning trying to rebook flights with layovers that are not in the path of the hurricane.

Will Orlando airport be fully operational and on schedule this weekend? Nobody knows, but if you have a layover in Orlando this weekend, I’m not waiting until it cancels to rebook you. We can’t control the weather but with some proactive planning, hopefully none of my clients will experience storm related disruptions. If they do, they will know that I tried everything I could to prevent it.

If you’re waiting on a travel agent or any other travel related supplier today or this weekend, please offer them patience and grace. And please pray for everyone that is in the path of Hurricane Helene!
