No. My vacation planning service is completely free to you. I am compensated by the travel suppliers — cruise lines, resorts, and tour operators — after your trip is completed. This means I'm paid only when you travel and have a great experience, so my incentives are 100% aligned with yours.

A travel advisor saves you time, catches mistakes, and adds value you can't get from a booking website. I know which cabins to avoid, which resorts have the best service, which Disney add-ons are worth it, and how to protect your trip if something goes wrong. I'm also your advocate if an airline cancels, a resort has an issue, or your plans need to change — Expedia won't call the resort on your behalf.

Travel advisors are paid a commission by the travel suppliers — cruise lines, Disney, all-inclusive resorts, and tour operators — after your trip is completed. You pay the same price whether you book through me or directly. The supplier pays the commission out of their own margin, not by charging you extra.

Most range from around $4,000 for a quick all-inclusive escape to $20,000+ for multi-generational Disney or Hawaii trips. Whatever your budget, I'll tell you honestly what it can get you.

I specialize in Disney World, Disneyland, Universal Studios, and Cruises.

Yes. As an authorized Disney vacation planner, I help with resort selection, ticket options, dining reservations, Lightning Lane strategy, park-by-park itineraries, and the full game plan for your trip. Disney planning has a lot of moving parts — I handle the complexity so you don't have to.

For Disney World, I recommend booking 6–11 months in advance, especially for on-site resort stays during peak periods like spring break, summer, and Christmas. Disney dining reservations open 60 days before your arrival date, so the earlier you lock in your resort, the better positioned you'll be for popular restaurants.

In most cases, yes — especially for cruises. A single medical evacuation at sea can cost $50,000 or more and is not covered by standard health insurance. Travel protection also covers trip cancellation, missed connections, and lost baggage. I always recommend reviewing coverage options before finalizing any booking.
