Why Using a Travel Advisor is the Ultimate Travel Cheat Code
Why Millennials Are Choosing Travel Advisors.
Full transparency moment here: When Jordan originally approached me about starting a travel agency, I thought it was silly. No one uses travel agents anymore right? Wrong.
She told me about her honeymoon, which was fully planned by a travel agent. We then met with her travel agent and I heard firsthand how much demand she was dealing with. And then I started thinking about all the work I did to plan previous trips, especially group trips where no one else had the patience or desire to coordinate everything. And this personal anecdote was confirmed by research, because according to this study, 47% of adults are using travel agents for convenience, with a good chunk of those being millennials and Gen Z. People are ditching DIY travel planning for the pros.
If you think about it, it makes sense. We’re so overwhelmed with content, it can be hard to even know where to start. Turning to a travel advisor takes the guesswork out of travel planning which saves you a significant amount of time. Still not convinced? I’m not saying its for everyone, but here are some reasons why a travel advisor like us might be exactly what you need:
You’re busy & need more time
Trying to maintain a career, a family, a social life, hobbies and/or a wellness routine, can be a lot. Planning a trip can be really quick if you’re returning to a location you know well but if you’re going somewhere new, research is needed to ensure you have the best experience. We’ve carved out the time you don’t have to do all the research, cross checking and planning needed to guarantee your trip is everything you imagined and more.
You hate planning
If you’ve made an in vs out list for 2025, we hope you’ve put suffering through things you hate on the out list. If putting together an itinerary and researching hotels and activities sounds like the last thing you want to do, outsource it! We both love to plan travel. It’s the reason we got into this business. We love going down research rabbit holes and finding the hidden gems that social media won’t show you. It is personalized travel planning and expert travel advice, without any of the work, time, or stress.
You like saving money
If your budget is unlimited, we love that for you but we know that’s usually not the case. If you have a specific number in mind, you might be tempted to check a third party booking site and find the “cheapest” option. Here’s what those sites won’t tell you. They’re not always the cheapest. Our goal is to save you money while making sure your trip is absolutely unforgettable. Oftentimes we get the same or lower rates, with more amenities which brings us to our next point…
You like perks
Who doesn’t love free breakfast? Or a complimentary room upgrade? Booking through a travel advisor can get you extra perks that you will never see on a third party website. Why? Hotels love the repeat business we send them so they are more inclined to spoil our guests with extras in the hopes of us continuing to work with them. We make sure you’re pampered with exclusive travel experiences—for stress-free travel.
In Summary: Why You Should Work With a Travel Advisor
Whether you’re planning a romantic getaway, a family vacation, or a group trip, a travel advisor can help make your experience stress-free and even more enjoyable. By saving you time, offering insider deals, and providing exclusive perks, a travel advisor is an investment that pays for itself.
