10 Reasons You Should Use a Travel Advisor in 20191. Travel is More Complicated Than Ever

With 24 new cruise ships coming out — never mind the new resorts and new airline fare categories — keeping with the options is a full-time job. And the growing trend toward groups of families and friends traveling together makes each trip a much more important purchase. Having a professional help with the planning and logistics can have a big impact on how much you spend on — and how much you enjoy — your vacation.

2. Travel Advisors are on Top of What’s New and Exciting The world is full of once-in-a-lifetime experiences in 2019. If you’d like to see The Passion Play at Oberammergau, the Tokyo Summer Olympics, the 2020 World Expo in Dubai, or the cricket World Cup in Australia, Travel Advisors have access to the best tour packages and exclusive events, and they understand how to navigate the logistics.

3. Travel Advisors Save You so Much Time and Stress Sure, reading about places to go is fun — but planning a trip is hard work, and you never know what to believe. Travel Advisors travel the world, looking at everything, from the size of the rooms in hotels and cruise ships to the dining options on-site and nearby. If they haven’t personally been where you want to go, they know someone who has. They can answer your questions quickly and correctly.

4. Travel Advisors Have Your Back When You Need an Advocate Blame global warming, acts of God or just the luck of the draw, but 2018 was a year of volcanoes erupting, earthquakes shaking and airlines failing, not to mention just plain bad weather, and 2019 promises to be the same. Whether the problem is getting there, getting in or getting out, your Travel Advisor will get you where you need to go.

5. There is No Do-Over for a Vacation Gone Wrong Life is busier and more demanding than ever, and vacation time is more valuable. Travel Advisors can save you hours, not just in doing research to find you the perfect vacation, but also just sitting on hold with short-staffed airlines and resorts to make your vacation perfect.

6. Travel Advisors add a Human Element — and an Element of Trust Travel Advisors are invested in their clients’ happiness and satisfaction and want to make sure each and every trip is packed full of positive lifelong memories. They listen, suggest, adjust, understand and become a friend, not just a search engine or an anonymous voice. They are with you before, during and after your trip.

7. The World is Constantly Changing, and Travel Advisors are on the Ground Experiencing It Has the Caribbean recovered from Hurricane Maria? Is it safe to travel to the Middle East? Travel Advisors don’t just sell a destination. They discover, research and experience the places they offer, over and over.

8. Travel Advisors Often Save you Money — and if not, They Deliver More Value Even if your Travel Advisor charges a fee, the value you receive will be bigger than what you paid. Cruise lines and many resorts get the majority of their customers through a Travel Advisor — and they reward the best ones with perks to share with you.

9. Travel Advisors Offer Unique Services for Discerning Clients Travel Advisors have the connections and clout. It all comes down to who you know. And odds are, they know that guy or gal.

10. Like Any Professional Advisors, They Really Do Know More Than You Do You can cut your own hair and do your own taxes and brew your own coffee, but a professional can do it better. You can plan your own vacation, too. Good luck with that.

Stay Mindful of What You Eat

Having some consistency, whether it’s drinking a coffee each morning or making sure to eat a nutrient-dense meal your body recognizes and enjoys, not only helps your digestive system, but it saves you money too! Make sure to pack your carry-on with plenty of things you like and that make you feel good: mixed nuts and seeds, roasted edamame, or even dried fruit. Airline food, regardless of where you’re traveling, leaves a lot to be desired, and these snacks not only help you through a nine-hour flight, but also prove handy throughout the trip.

Stay Hydrated and Pack a Reusable Water Bottle

Water is so simple but does your body so much good. Make sure to stay hydrated and continuously flush out toxins. It’s easy to forget to drink the same amount of water you do at home when you are moving around all day. By keeping a water bottle in your bag it can serve as a friendly reminder.

Be Flexible with Your Routine

There’s nothing better than discovering and exploring a new city. However, the desire to see all the sites can become overwhelming. Find that flexibility and allow yourself to live in the moment. Take in the view and enjoy your new surroundings. A big part of wellness is enjoying life, laughing, and having a glass of wine with some friends. It’s not all or nothing. Make the most of your trip and enjoy your time away!

Don’t Sacrifice Sleep

Getting a good night of sleep is essential for feeling and being your best. Sometimes that is easier said than done when you’re on an unfamiliar mattress, having difficulty finding the ideal temperature, or the hotel room occupants next door playing music past your bedtime. Pack ear plugs and an eye mask in case you need to drown out light and sound. Check out apps that can help lull you to sleep or wake up in a good mood.

Maintaining Wellness While Traveling

Keep Track of the Booze

For some people, alcohol is a part of their vacation. Sipping cocktails by the pool, ordering beers with lunch, or having wine at sunset seems natural. However, chances are, drinking every day won’t make you feel your best, both mentally and physically.

More than that, alcohol and the sun are not a good mix. The combination can lead to dehydration and heatstroke. Keep track of the booze by alternating alcoholic drinks with water. It doesn’t feel good to wake up each day feeling hungover, whether you are on vacation or not.

Use Jet Lag to Your Advantage

Jet lag can take its toll, but it can also lead to fantastic gain. Nobody likes lying in bed at 3am wide awake, but, it can actually be an excellent time to get your travel workout in and help fight jet lag for the next day. If you’re up early or can’t get to sleep at night, go for a run, a swim, hit the gym, or do some yoga. A good 30 to 45 minute workout can help tire the body out to help acclimate to new sleep patterns – and you’ll have your workout done for the day, it’s a win win.

Tips to Travel Smart and Prepare for a Stress-Free Journey

Here are some travel tips and suggestions gathered by our Travel Advisors to help you prepare for your upcoming journey. It’s always good to have things in order before you leave home so you can be ready for any surprises that may come up during your trip.

Let Us Help You Research Before You Travel

First rule of travel — don’t be ignorant about where you are going. Make an effort to learn about the country, the cultural norms, the spots for travelers to visit and the areas or regions that are best avoided. Head off on your trip with your eyes wide open to avoid surprises.

Purchase Travel Insurance Regardless of whether you are a natural worrier or not, don’t hesitate to take out travel insurance. Not only will insurance cover any unexpected injuries and trips to the hospital, it can also protect you from theft or loss of personal belongings.

Know Your Transportation Options

Avoid air travel mishaps by frequently checking whether your flight has been rescheduled or canceled. When using bus services, make sure to go with trusted companies that have many reviews online. Moreover, try booking your tickets in advance whenever possible, so you don’t end up stranded on remote bus stops with no transport in sight. If you are hiring local taxis, agree upon the fare in advance in case the vehicle doesn’t have a meter. Also, carry a map with you to avoid getting lost.

Plan for Health and Wellness Needs Make sure to have a supply of any over-the-counter essentials like motion sickness pills, probiotics, pain killers and bug repellents. Consult your doctor and get any proper vaccines before traveling. Bring any prescription pills plus some extra days beyond the intended length of your travel in case your stay lasts longer.

Have Emergency Info at Hand This includes contact numbers for the local emergency services (police, fire department and ambulance) and for your country’s embassy (if there is one in the place you’re visiting) in case any problems arise on your trip.

Know How to Communicate

Learn the basic emergency phrases like “I need help”, “Where is the nearest hospital/police station/embassy?” etc. in the local language.

Bring the Essentials If you’re traveling with small children, pack diapers and other essentials like wet wipes that can last until you arrive at your destination. Bring a small stash of your usual child medicines from home and carry a basic first-aid kit. Do not assume you will find all that you need abroad. Also, consider having your kids wear contact bracelets with your phone number and other important information in case you lose sight of them.

Manage Your Money If you plan on using your debit and credit cards, make sure to notify your bank in advance that you’ll be abroad, or you may find your card blocked for suspicious activity. Research beforehand where are the best spots to exchange your money into local currency as ATMs might be scarce in certain places. When out and about, always carry a small amount of cash with you.
