Vacation Spotlight-Cruises

Let's talk about a one of my favorite vacations-a cruise!

Before doing my vacation cruise, I had done a few work cruises that were great but when you are not working they are awesome!

We loved to do all inclusive vacations and we still do but a cruise really does offer some great things.

For example-

The shows and entertainment is top of the line.

Dining is amazing, regardless if you are in the Main Dining Room or a specialty restaurant.

So much to do onboard during the sea days, they have music, fun at the pool, some have water slides, and many more options

They offer many venues and shopping.

Cabins range from inside cabins to the special suites that offer many amenities.

I am sure I am missing something!


So who should consider a cruise?

Basically anyone who likes to relax and chill to the person that loves to be on the move

When we took our first vacation cruise we were shocked at the options.  We quickly fell in love with cruising.  We love the ports but also the days at seas can be just as fun.

I sell all cruise lines but I do admit I love to cruise on Royal Caribbean and Celebrity however that is my preference.  

If you would like to explore the option of cruising please contact me and we can find the cruise line and cruise ship that you will love!

 Learn to travel smart!


When you are preparing to travel please travel smart!  What do I mean?

I always ask my clients to review their travel documents, they contain so much valuable information.

Such as...

Your flight information

In case of travel issues who do you call?  Once you are in travel your travel supplier is the one to call-all information is in your documents.

If you do have a travel delay or cancellation be sure to have any receipts for food, hotel anything you had to purchase.  Also if you should ask go to your airline desk and ask for any documentation you might need.  Once you are home I can submit your claim-if you purchase travel protection which I recommend.  I love to help my clients but when you are traveling you need to obtain any information that will help your claim.

So you made it to your destination, enjoy!

Well you do need to do a few things especially if you are returning to the airport with ground transportation.  For example when traveling you have prepaid transfer.  You need to meet with your representatives to arrange pick up,  they usually give you a meeting time.  I admit I have missed these meeting and it is a not easy to contact your rep on resort so attend the meeting!

Another tip is if you have a pickup time arrive early in case they are early, if you are late they will leave!

I hope this helps if you have any questions I am always around!

Book your next vacation with Vacation R Special Travel

 Are you ready to book your next vacation?

This is a great time to educate my new (and existing) clients on the process of working with Vacations R Special Travel.
I would like to discuss the process of researching your vacation, the booking process, and of course the travel process. 

When you decide you are ready to plan your next vacation, give me a call. If you already have an idea of what you would like to do that is great if not I will work you through the process by asking questions about the vacations you have loved and even the ones you have not loved!  Also what are your hobbies, if you like a adventure vacation or one that is just for relaxing!
Sometimes this does take awhile but I want to be sure my clients are getting a "Special Vacation." 

Whats next?
Alright we know what we want now let Cindy (Vacations R Special Travel) find you the best price with the best supplier!
Once we know what you want I will do some price checking and make sure you get the best value, also I only work with trusted suppliers.  Working with the best suppliers means less stress for my clients, and me!  Some clients will find a really good deal online, I ask you send me that quote and compare it to the quote I have.  It may not include some items or it just might be a company that works on selling trips and not customer service.  
So now we have your trip ready to book!!

Things to consider when booking your vacation.
We need to be sure you have all of the travel components you need-such as ground transportation (shuttle, car rental, taxi).
Any requests such as medical issues that require certain rooms, cruise cabins, or medical equipment.  Of course we all want to request a better room but sometimes we have needs not wants so it is important to be certain we have that covered.

Next time let's discuss preparing for and enjoying your "Special Vacation"
