Short on time but desperately in need of a getaway this Fall?

Sometimes, all you have is a few days of PTO for a quick getaway to rest and recharge.

But that doesn’t make your trip any less meaningful or easy to plan.

In fact, I would argue that the shorter the trip, the more you’ll need some planning help because you have less time to make the most of your time away.

Call me the queen of maximizing vacation time because that’s where I can help.

Whether you’re planning a city adventure, a quick break to an all-inclusive, or a little wellness time to relax and reset, I’ll help you plan an itinerary that maximizes your time.

Don’t let time be the thing that stops you from making the most of your vacation. Send me a DM so I can give you a list of hotspots for shorter trips.

How do you know when it‘s the right time to call in reinforcements to help with your travel planning?
Let me share with you the straw that broke the camel’s back for many of my current clients.
👉They were overwhelmed with the sheer number of travel options for where to stay and what to do and ended up with decision paralysis.
👉They were frustrated that reading online reviews, articles, and blogs did not actually clarify things for them but added to the noise and confusion.
👉They started trying to book things but realized halfway through that they just didn’t have the time for travel planning to become another full-time job.
If you‘re reading this and thinking, "This all sounds too familiar," then send me a DM, and let me take the overwhelm and drama off your shoulders.

"Isn‘t it too early to be thinking about spring trips?"
Some advice from your travel advisor:
It‘s NEVER too early.
If you’re planning your Spring Break trip now, you’re way ahead of the curve:
➡️ You get first pick and can lock in the best rooms at those high-demand resorts and hotels before they fill up.
➡️ You have more time to look for promotions. I keep my eyes peeled for offers that align with the trip you have in mind so you can get the best value for your budget.
➡️ One less thing to stress about. Get it locked into your calendar so you have something to look forward to.
Let’s get you ahead of the Spring travel game. Send me a DM so we can start planning or email to [email protected]

Why You Need a Travel Advisor- Not Just a Travel Agent

The term “Travel agent” feels a bit outdated, don’t you think?

Today, we are so much more than an order taker.

As travel advisors, we bring years of training, experience, and a wealth of knowledge about hotels, cruise lines, tours, flights, group bookings, and so much more.

Sometimes our role involves wearing many “hats” to service your booking:

🎩 Therapist: We often have to navigate tough decisions about a client’s trip and reassure them when they are in a personal crisis.

🎩 Event Coordinator: With groups, we often need to handle details like guest dinner selections and seating charts for weddings and events.

🎩 Logistics Expert: Your personal booking may have as many as 25+ moving parts! Our role is then to seamlessly connect these so everything goes as planned (and we make sure that not one details is forgotten)

🎩 24/7 Support: We’re always on call for our clients in destination (or at least the good ones are, even if it means stepping out of personal events to help you).

And sometimes we are “yelled at” for things like flight cancellations and schedule changes that are out of our control.

This industry demands passion, knowledge, and time. Sadly, many untrained agents are out there, misled by companies promising easy money. Travel isn’t a “get rich quick” gig. It’s a labor of love. We pour our hearts into crafting unforgettable experiences.

Choose a travel professional who will wear those many hats for you.

Trust me - you will thank us in the end ♥️

And always travel with kindness 🫶🏼✈️

Is this you every night after work trying to plan your next vacation? 👇
You have a giant list of resorts you can’t keep straight.
10 browser tabs open with articles, reviews, and recommendations.
You‘re wondering if you should leave the resort/rent a car or not and which local tours are the best option since they’re all starting to blend in and sound the same.
Friend, let me remind you that planning a trip doesn’t need to turn into a full-time job for you.
Here’s what you’re going to do instead:
👉 Hand your travel wishlist over
👉 Tell me more about the trip you’d like to take
👉 Give me some insights into past trips and what you loved or didn’t love
Let me bring it all together into a proposal with tailored resort/hotel recommendations, a list of tours I’ve done myself or have vetted, and a list of other tips and information about the destination you’re going to.
Send me a message or www.luxuriousjourneys.com to get started so you can get back to enjoying your evenings!
