Kim is a remarkable travel professional who provided rapid, creative, and value-oriented service for a planned Alaska Cruise. Out of the myriad travel agent choices when I Googled "TAs near me" my wife and I decided to try the one named Cruise Planners and are extremely glad that we did. Kim quickly integrated our goals and needs into a package that fulfilled the spirit and practicalities of the trip and clearly knew where and how to identify areas of cost saving for consideration. A++ in our experience and we would gladly coordinate with her on future trips.

Details: Vacation • 4 - 7 days • 2 people • 51 years old or older • Booking travel • Planning excursions • Boat / cruise • Air • Remotely (phone or internet)

Kim was awesome at arranging our 50th anniversary cruise with our family of 10 to Alaska. She compared ships, itineraries, ports, costs, cabins, dining etc etc. She answered our multitude of questions promptly and she was in a different time zone by 3 hours. Wow! Kim is certainly an expert at getting the job done! Thanks so much and we highly recommend Kim to plan your cruise.

FAQs

• What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

  Many people ask for the lowest rate they can get. Pricing always varies based on many factors. How many days? Ages of travelers? Have you cruised before? Type of cabin or room requested? So although we always try to get the best deals for our customers we can't quote an accurate price without getting the answers to a few questions first. When asking for pricing try to include as much information as you can. If you know your budget, include that too so that there is less time wasted looking for something out of your price range.

• What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

  We prefer to talk to our clients first to get a feel for what they are looking for in their vacation and to answer a few questions to help us narrow down what's important for the travelers. Texting and email is the second option so be sure to include contact information when asking for information.

• What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

  I have over 25 years in the hospitality industry. I have 5 years of travel experience with a local travel agency and now work out of my home office as a franchise owner with Cruiseplanners.
