🏎️ To all my motorsport clients… this one is a little bit special.

Regent Seven Seas Cruises has just launched a collection of ultra‑exclusive motorsport experiences on selected 2027 European sailings — and they’re nothing like your usual cruise excursions.

Picture this:
✨ Driving classic Porsches through Catalonia
✨ Supercars in Barcelona
✨ Time behind the wheel of a Ferrari near Maranello
✨ A multi‑day immersion at Goodwood 🏁

These experiences can be added before or after your cruise, giving you a few days of something completely different on top of an already incredible European holiday.

As someone who spends a fair chunk of her weekends at a racetrack, this definitely caught my attention 👀.

If Europe, ultra‑luxury cruising and motorsport sound like your kind of dream combo, I’d love to help you build it. ✈️🚢🏎️

Do you rely on the complimentary travel insurance that comes with your credit card? ✈️

With changes to Australia's card payment system taking effect around October 2026, a number of banks and card providers are also changing, reducing or removing some of the complimentary insurance benefits attached to their cards.

Depending on your particular card, changes may include things such as reduced cancellation cover, shorter maximum trip durations, changes to baggage or other benefits — or complimentary travel insurance being removed altogether.

So if your thinking is “I've always used the insurance on my credit card”, don't assume the cover you had for your last holiday is necessarily the cover you have now.

Before travelling, check:
☐ Does your particular card still include complimentary travel insurance?
☐ Have you met the requirements to activate the cover?
☐ How long are you covered for?
☐ What are the cancellation and medical limits?
☐ Are your pre-existing medical conditions covered?
☐ Who else travelling with you is covered?
☐ What excesses, exclusions and sub-limits apply?

Most importantly, check the current policy wording for your particular card and your particular trip.

Complimentary credit card insurance can still be perfectly suitable for some travellers — but it's worth knowing exactly what you're relying on before you leave home. ✈️

Not sure what your credit card covers? Just ask. I’m always happy to help you work through the fine print.

Slow down for 20 seconds with me. ☀️

Travel doesn't always need to be optimised.

Sometimes you just need someone to cut through the noise.

Has social media made travel better... or more overwhelming?

I think it's done both.

Travellers have never had so much inspiration... or so much FOMO.
Instagram, TikTok, Facebook groups, Google, Reddit, AI... planning a holiday can feel like a full-time job! Suddenly there are hundreds of opinions, "must-do" experiences and pressure to optimise every moment.

The result? People often come home needing a holiday from their holiday!

One of the biggest parts of my job isn't booking travel—it's filtering the noise.
Helping clients work out what's genuinely worth doing, what's not, and creating an itinerary that suits them rather than trying to tick every box.

Sometimes the best trips aren't the ones that fit in the most.
They're the ones that leave room to breathe... and room for those unexpected, magical moments that become the stories you'll tell for years to come.

Have you ever had an unplanned travel moment that ended up being the highlight of your trip? 🌏✨

This ABC story is a timely reminder that travel isn't just about finding the cheapest price.

It's also about understanding who you're booking with, where your money is going, and what protections are in place if something unexpected happens.

When booking online, that information isn't always easy to find or understand.

One of the benefits of working with a travel advisor is having someone who can explain:
✈️ Who is holding your money
✈️ When suppliers are paid
✈️ What booking conditions apply
✈️ What travel insurance may or may not cover
✈️ What happens if plans change

For Mission to Travel clients, funds are generally either held in trust or paid directly to the relevant travel supplier. Client funds are not used to fund the day-to-day running of my business, and if a supplier issues a refund, those funds are passed on to the client as soon as they are received.

Mission to Travel operates through an ATIA-accredited travel network and I've been helping Australians travel for almost 20 years.

Travel should be exciting. Understanding how your booking works behind the scenes can help make it a little less stressful too. 🌏

Australian travellers who collectively lost millions of dollars after their travel agency collapsed are calling on the federal government to overhaul consumer protections in the travel sector.

Reviews like this absolutely make my day ❤️
Brook and her partner travelled through Greece and Italy last year for a very special birthday trip, and it was such a pleasure helping bring their holiday vision to life.

Thank you both for trusting me with your travels and for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review — it truly means the world.

How much time is too much time on holiday? 🤔

Most people assume longer is always better.

This week I was designing a wellness itinerary for a group who originally wanted a month away. Once I started costing the trip, it became clear there would be a big trade-off between the length of the holiday, the standard of accommodation and the level of wellness inclusions.

Rather than stretching the budget across a full month, I recommended a shorter itinerary with fewer hotel changes, stronger wellness programs and a higher calibre of accommodation.

Sometimes the best holiday isn't the longest one.

Sometimes it's the one that gives you enough time to truly relax, while still enjoying the experiences and comforts that make the journey special.

That's where a good travel advisor can make all the difference.

Would you choose a longer holiday, or a shorter trip with more luxury and inclusions?
