Tips for Planning Your Trip

                                            Top Tips for Trip Planning

Save time and money with these travel tips from Cruise Planners travel advisors.

Whether you’re looking to fly across the globe, sail to exotic destinations or road trips

close to home, Cruise Planners – Amanda Judd is the here to help you plan the perfect

vacation.

  1. Use a Travel Professional – Why spend four weeks planning your one-week

vacation? A travel advisor saves you time and helps you plan the perfect

vacation. Travel advisors have access to the best deals, value-added amenities

and incentive programs to make your vacation even more enjoyable. Best of all,

you don’t have to pay travel agents for their services.

  1. Book Early – Don’t wait for last-minute deals. Cruise lines, hotels and resorts

often reward those who book ahead with discounted rates and add-ons. When

cruising, planning in advance means you’ll have more options to choose from

when selecting layout and location or looking for connecting rooms. If rates go

down after you’ve booked, your travel advisor is often able to adjust your price,

so, booking early means getting the vacation you want at a great price.

  1. Book a Bundle – You don’t have to search a million sites to find the best price

for everything. Your travel advisor can save you money by booking airfare,

accommodations, transportation and tours as a package.

  1. Travel During the Off Season – Save money by traveling to a destination during

the off season or “shoulder” season – right before or after peak season. With

fewer travelers visiting a destination during the off season, you’ll have faster

access to typically busy tourist attractions and accommodation rates are usually

lower, giving you more bang for your buck. Check with your travel advisor to see

if changing your dates by a few weeks can help you save money.

  1. Travel Local – Look for travel opportunities in your own backyard. Consider a

road trip or “staycation” or sail on a cruise from a homeport near you. In addition

to the popular cruise ports in Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, New York City and Seattle,

cruises leave from ports all over the country such as Los Angeles, Baltimore,

Galveston, Tampa, and Charleston.

  1. Go as a Group – Whether you’re planning family reunion, friends’ getaway, a

special interest group or a wedding, you may be eligible for a free cabin when

traveling in a group of eight or more staterooms. Plus, groups can often get perks

such as free meeting rooms, cocktail parties, special amenities and onboard

credit.
