Sending a family to Universal Orlando Resort this week, including a birthday celebration and a package that includes tickets to Halloween Horror Nights 🎉

Did you know I can book vacation packages to Universal Orlando Resort in Florida? I'm also attending a webinar later this week that includes Universal Orlando Resort and Evermore Resort. What's Evermore Resort, you ask?

Picture this: a turquoise lagoon with real sandy beaches, kayaks and paddle boards, a waterpark with a giant slide and rope swing, golf, a full spa, and room for the whole crew to spread out in a villa or home. It feels like a coastal getaway, right there in Orlando.

So instead of cramming park after park into back-to-back days, we build in resort days. Ride the coasters, then come back to your resort and float. Chase down the new lands, then sleep in and grab a beach chair. Everybody gets to enjoy the vacation instead of surviving it.

Later this week, I’m sitting in on a webinar all about Universal Orlando and Evermore, and I’ll be bringing back the good stuff: how to pair them, when to go, and the details that make a trip like this run smoothly 📝

Another 3 staterooms on the books for a Royal Caribbean sailing in January 2027! And the bonus: they booked with me, and each room is getting an additional onboard credit to spend aboard the ship 🤗

School's back in session, pumpkin spice is everywhere, and two big holidays are on the way... which means now is the time to start planning travel for spring, summer, and fall 2027.

Thinking about a theme park trip or cruise in 2027? Cruise availability is closing fast, and Spring/Summer 2027 theme park promos are just starting to open up.

Behind the scenes, I've been building out systems to keep my travel clients organized: trip details, payments, documents, all in one place. Beyond that, I handle the promo hunting, timeline planning, and logistics testing, plus all the tiny details that turn a good trip into a great one.

A couple of quick numbers to know:
🏰 Walt Disney World resort + ticket packages: just a $200 deposit if you're booking more than 30 days out, then pay on your own schedule with final payment due 30 days before arrival.
🚢 Disney Cruises: a deposit to hold your cabin, with final payment typically due 3-4 months before sailing.

⏰ 1 Hour, 4 Minutes
That is how much time my clients did *not* have to spend on the phone today because they booked their Disney Cruise through me and needed to make a change.

I called and was on the phone for 1 hour and 4 minutes, making sure my clients' June Disney Cruise departing from Rome was exactly what they wanted, and plans are moving forward.

Burnt out on the Disney theme parks and looking for something different? Disney Cruise Line and Adventures by Disney offer a completely different experience, all while still offering the service you know from the Disney bubble. Food, entertainment, excursions, and more.

I book these options and more. Contact me today for more information on how to hire me to help you with your next vacation!

Save for later! Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party nights affect your WHOLE day at Magic Kingdom, not just the evening. Here’s how I’d plan it depending on your situation:

If you have party tickets, skip the full park day. Sleep in, do a resort breakfast, enjoy the pool, and arrive at Magic Kingdom at 4pm. You’ll have 8 hours of party time and you won’t be running on empty by 9pm.

If you don’t have party tickets, Magic Kingdom is actually a great choice that day, especially for little ones. Just know the park closes early for the party, so plan accordingly and don’t save your must-dos for the end of the day.

If you have a park hopper and no party tickets… this is the move. Hit Magic Kingdom in the morning, knock out your priorities, then hop to another park before close. You get the best of both without the early cutoff ruining your day.

The party is incredible but how you plan around it matters just as much as the party itself.
