What happens behind the scenes? - real talk with a travel advisor
Manage episode 364844953 series 3336338
Today it's just me! My first solo podcast where I'm sharing some tips on travel.
First, I review and break down my six week work trip and share some tips I learned. Starting in London and ending in Germany, my trip included 6 countries, 3 continents and 2 hemispheres. I’ll share some of my packing tips and exactly how I fit everything I needed in just two small bags. During my explorations, I got to experience a variety of new amazing properties for my clients in Kenya, London, Cornwall, Paris and Munich. Additionally, I was able to experience firsthand the stopover program in Qatar, a perfect traveling intermission if you’re traveling to Asia or the Middle East.
Next… airlines and booking airfare. If you are traveling at all this year, you probably know that airfare prices are crazy and most airlines are understaffed, sometimes causing interruptions in air travel. In short, air travel has become an ORDEAL. I’ll review the 3 different ways to book flights and some insider tips on the best way to book your airfare using points, a consolidator or by booking directly. We recommend booking as early as you can, especially if you have a certain place in the plane you like to sit!
Lastly, I drop some tips about summer travel and what travel could look like this year as well as how to protect your vacation dollars.
