Some people like the idea of disconnecting while on their cruise vacation. If you plan on wanting to connect your phone, keep that in mind! Your phone will not work on the open seas without using the WIFI. Could you go a whole cruise without being connected with the world?

Budgeting for a cruise can feel like a lot when you are not sure what all goes into it! Here are some costs to keep in mind: 🔅Travel arrangements to and from the port city 🔅Hotel costs for the night before or after the cruise 🔅Drink packages 🔅Wifi packages 🔅Excursions 🔅Shopping and activities on board 🔅Speciality dining Do any of these costs surprise you?

Last year, my word was colorful. This year, my word is surrender. Do you do a word of the year? If so, what’s your word this year?

I have a firm belief that everyone should experience at least one cruise before they decide it is not for them. 🛳What hesitations do you have about cruising?

The reasons to take your kids on a cruise are actually endless. Every family has different wants and needs from a vacation and with cruising, you can have them all! A big something for everyone involved. I went on two cruises growing up and both experiences were beautifully amazing. Cruising offers something for the whole family. Spring Break trips are still available and it is never too early to start planning for your Summer vacation fun! Fill out our cruise planning form to get started planning your next family vacation!

🛳Small ships, large ships, entertainment, dining, oh my! Don’t let the overwhelm of knowing how to find a cruise line that fits your needs stop you from cruising! Some questions to ask yourself when looking for the right cruise line for you: 1️⃣Do I care about how many passengers are on board? 2️⃣What do I want to do while on the ship? 3️⃣Is specialized dining my priority? 4️⃣Am I shopping for price, cruise stops, or length of time? 5️⃣Am I hoping to relax or hit the night clubs? When planning a cruise, you have to think through what is important to you! All cruise lines provide magical experiences but each is so different. We help pair you with a cruise experience that fits your wants and needs while out on the open seas.

On Wednesdays, we wear pink 💗Let’s talk about travel agencies. First of all, travel agencies are badass. They were created to help people plan vacations and allow more ease in our clients lives around vacationing. Now see, ABSD Travel helps people plan incredible vacations, but we focus more on travel in an authentic way. I firmly believe that travel is SO much bigger than just going on vacation. While vacationing is amazing and allows us space to relax and have an amazing time, there are so many ways to travel that are outside of that vacation model. If you are looking for a way to add travel to your life and need help getting started, we are the travel agency made for you. Our travel planning seeks to help you find new and exciting ways to add simple travel into your life.

Black Canyon of the Gunnison is absolutely breathtaking! In the Winter, some of the roads are closed off. We spent our Thanksgiving day at Black Canyon and enjoyed the calmness of the empty park. We loved hiking several of the pull-off trails and soaking in the incredible canyon. It really does live up to its name of Black Canyon! Pack a picnic, an extra jacket, and your explorer’s soul! #absdtravel #blackcanyon #blackcanyonofthegunnison #nationalparks #roadtrips

Travel is unpredictable, but we are not. One of my favorite parts about traveling is actually the unpredictability of what the experience will bring. I have experienced some WILD unexpected turns while traveling, but I learned how to handle a situation when something comes up. I remind myself that I am safe and that there is a solution to every problem. I promise, there is a solution to whatever comes up while traveling. Always. Since I have been traveling for such a long time, finding the solution comes easy to me when a problem arises. Through all my experiences, I have learned how to plan and create trips to remove as much unpredictability as possible. My biggest suggestion: start with a deep breath and remind yourself that it is okay to be flexible and there is an easy solution in front of me, I just have to find it. One of the most amazing parts of working with ABSD Travel is when you do face unpredictable pieces, we are here to help you find that easy solution! Have you ever been traveling and something really unexpected happened? #absdtravel #travelisbeautiful #travelagency #travelplanner #travelisunpredictable

Colors look different in different places. This comes up a lot in our house. How many colors I can see and experience in our world versus what my partner can see. I started seeing vivid colors that our world holds at such a young age and I now look and experience color differently because of this. My favorite color in the world to look at is green: there are limitless shades of green! Travel helps us see differently. When we branch out of what we know and allow something new to fill in its place, we grow. 2023 is meant to be a year of love and growth. 🔅Let’s grow together through travel. #absdtravel #timetogrow #travelagency #travelplanner #travelisbeautiful

Making airport security easier than ever! Here are my top tips to make going through airport security simple: 🔅ID AND BOARDING PASS: Having your ID and boarding pass out is essential. This helps speed up the process tremendously and will make the security agent happy. If you are checking a bag, you can just keep your ID and boarding pass out (you will need them for checking your bag). 🔅WEAR SLIP ON SHOES: The shoes that you wear going through security can make your experience easier. When you are going through security you have to take your shoes off to be scanned through the X-Ray machine. Wearing slip shoes makes it so much easier to pop on and off when it is time. I always recommend wearing socks, I don’t like walking on the floor with my bare feet in the airport. All personal preference! 🔅BRING A WATER BOTTLE: When you are traveling in general, I always recommend bringing a water bottle that you can fill up. It is really nice to have water on you when you need it. When you are going through security, you are allowed to bring refillable water bottles as long as it is empty! There are refill stations once you get through security. This will also save you $5+ on a bottle of water inside the airport terminal. 🔅LIQUIDS: Make sure all your liquids are in a bag together that you can easily pull out of your bag. PRO TIP: regular size toothpaste bottles, you are taking the risk. Could get taken, could not, totally depends on the airport! If you are checking a bag, go ahead and put all of your liquids in your checked bag. 🔅LARGE ELECTRONICS: When I travel, I always make sure my large electronics are accessible when I am going through security. You are going to need to pull them out - it is better to know where they are and be able to get them out of your bag quickly and easily. For those who are not new to airport security lines, what is your favorite thing you do to make the security line easier for you? I would love to hear from yo

My honest thoughts about the travel industry 💭👀 When we watch people online traveling the world and experiencing places and things that seem so out of reach to us. We forget that there are other ways to travel because that is not what we are seeing every day. Travel is meant to be part of our lives. Financially, travel is really hard on a huge majority of the people in our 🌏. We are held back from wanting to experience new things and grow outside of our everyday lives because dreaming of something that you know you cannot afford is not very fun. The travel industry is one of the largest industries in the world (over a trillion dollars worth). ABSD Travel has made it our mission to help humans travel who do not feel like travel is possible for them. For most who we talk to who fit this label, finances are one of the main reasons. I believe that travel is meant for everyone. We work with people of all backgrounds, financial situations, sexualities, colors, and everything in between to find new and exciting ways to bring travel into your life. What are your thoughts?

South Dakota was so much more amazing than I ever imagined it would be! I did a one night road trip. This was all the history & nature that I am so grateful that I was able to experience. Now I really cannot wait to make it up to North Dakota and see how they are different! I love the uniqueness every state holds. It is really amazing how much you can see and do when you travel by road. Driving in the West is so different from driving in my hometown. Time moves differently and your appreciation for your surroundings deepens as you drive. No matter where you are located, road trips are an extremely accessible form of travel. At ABSD Travel, we work with you to find a way to make travel possible in your life. We love you and cannot wait to help you plan your next vacation!! #absdtravel #travelagency #accessibletravel #travelisbeautiful #roadtriptravelagency #roadtrip #southdakota #badlandsnationalpark #windcavenationalpark #mountrushmore #crazyhorsememorial #boondocking
