FAQs
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I attend at least 4 or 5 continuing education seminars per month as well as numerous webinars to keep up to date with destinations, new hotels & resorts, new cruise ship introductions, etc. I also participate in agent familiarization trips to learn about the country, culture, different levels of accomodations, and activities that I can then tell clients about.
- What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
I think that an initial conversation either by phone or in person is essential to the trip planning process. I can often identify areas of concern or even discern travel styles of clients in having a converstion with them versus just getting an email with their travel dates and preferences. The rest can all be done via email.
