The Benefits of Using a Travel Agent
Hiya folks!
I’m your friendly neighborhood Disney Vacation Planner! If you’ve always wanted to experience the magic of seeing Cinderella’s Castle in person or seek the thrill of riding Space Mountain alongside your family, I’m here to help your dreams come true! Booking a Disney vacation may seem easy with the endless amount of information on the internet. But this much information can be overwhelming. With my insider knowledge, I’m here to help discover what is best for you and your family. As a former Cast Member and a graduate of the Disney College of Knowledge, I have the resources to do all of the nitty-gritty work for you. This way, you can focus on the important things, like enjoying your vacation!
Here are the Benefits of using a Travel Agent:
You’re Dealing with an Expert: I’m endlessly qualified and highly knowledgeable when it comes to Disney vacations. During my time as a Cast Member, I was in the parks every day either for work and/or play. I stayed in many different resorts across the property and ate at most of the popular restaurants. I can give you honest reviews about each of these places to help you with your reservations. On top of that, I recently graduated from the Disney College of Knowledge, which is a Travel Agent training program designed to prepare Agents for booking Disney vacations for their clients. Easy to say, I know my stuff!
It’s Free to You: Suppliers like Disney and most other companies pay Travel Agents a commission when we book on behalf of them because we’re doing their job for them. They are willing to take a cut and pay us for doing the marketing, planning, and finding customers. This costs nothing extra to you. That being said, please be aware that the only way Travel Agents are paid is if we book on your behalf. If you work with us then decide later to book through a travel website like Expedia, we won’t be compensated. We really appreciate it if we can work with you through the whole process if you’re willing to have us.
Your Wish is My Command: Think of me as your personal assistant. I do all the work, planning, and follow-up for you. If you want to spend hours researching a destination, international border control stipulations, and Travel Insurance plans, that’s totally cool. If you’d rather have someone do it for you, let me do it!
Resources: As an Agent, I have an endless amount of resources and a huge network of Travel Professionals to refer to. This is something a travel website won’t offer to you. Agents tend to be the first to be notified when a supplier announces new upcoming promos as well.
No Upselling: As a small business owner, supporting my dream of planning Disney vacations for people, I promise to be honest and upfront. This is my business so I’m not pressured to make certain amounts on commission. What does it hurt? It’s a completely free service and I actually like doing it.
How much you want me involved in your planning is completely up to you. If you’d like me to schedule every FastPass, Dining Reservation, hotel and flights, I can do that. If you’d rather me just book your hotel, that’s fine. See below for all the services I offer when booking your vacation.
Complete Service Offers
Your Choice of Contact Information: This may seem like an odd one to list, but here’s the thing, a lot of people (including me at times) don’t like to ask people for help. And more often than not, they hate cold calling a stranger or business. That’s why Lyft and Postmates are so dang successful. I want people to feel comfortable to reach out to me on any medium. If you want to do all of your planning via email, we can do that. Do you like to text? Fabulous! Rather just have me call you? I’m down for that too. Whatever you want, I’m here!
Packages: Some packages offer discounts if you book during certain seasons. Other discounts seem great, but are not worth it once you read the fine print. I can do the budget hunting and pricing out for you. If you find a discount before I do, I can add usually add it to your package, no problem.
Dining Reservations: You can make dining reservations online 180 days before your vacation. It’s become increasingly difficult in booking the popular restaurants like Be our Guest since this system launched. People tend to get up at 3:00 AM on their 180-day mark just to ensure they get a seat. I am happy to be up in the wee hours to work on your reservations and if they happen to be full, I have the ability to set up systems that will alert me if a reservation becomes available.
FastPasses: With dining reservations and travel time, FastPasses can quickly become a logistical nightmare. I can help schedule your FastPasses and make sure they work will your other reservations.
Dining Plan: The most Frequently Asked Disney Question: Is the Dining Plan worth it? I can help draw out comparisons and figure out if the Dining Plan is right for you.
Resort Research: If you want to make sure the hotel is more kid oriented or have a more of an “adult feel,” I have plenty of recommendations. I can help you make requests for arranging to have a crib for your room or asking for ADA accommodations as well.
So, don’t hesitate to reach out to me! You can ping me at [email protected] or message me here on Facebook. I’ll do my best to make your Disney vacation extra magical!
