About Me

A stroll in Bratislava.
A stroll in Bratislava.

At World on the Fly Travel, we know that travel is more than a destination—it’s a powerful journey of discovery. We believe the details of planning should never overshadow the adventure itself. That’s why we handle every booking, itinerary, and complexity, allowing you to travel with complete peace of mind.My connection to global travel is deeply personal.

For three decades, I experienced the world from the inside out as a flight attendant with American Airlines. This time in the sky gave me a front-row seat to the magic of global exploration and shaped my expertise in seamless travel logistics. That passion never faded, inspiring me to launch this agency.

I firmly believe that every trip expands our understanding—of other people, the world, and ourselves. This is the enrichment your life is waiting for.Whether you are seeking a romantic escape, a memorable family vacation, or a group exploration, let me bring my three decades of industry knowledge to your next itinerary. I can't wait to help you start your journey.

Testimonials I've Received

 

... I did not know where to begin my planning. I reached out to Wendy and her World on the Fly Travel team and they set up a once-in-a-lifetime vacation for us. I gave her limited specifics other than "my son enjoys history." We were met at the airport by our chauffeur who turned into a local travel guide for us, as well as a security guard during some protests in Athens. The hotels, tours, and guides all exceeded our expectations. I'm already using World on the Fly to plan my next trip!

Reviewed By Beth - Hampton | Traveled to Costa Rica ~ Central America
Wendy was extremely helpful in putting our entire trip to Costa Rica together. She researched everything and gave us several suggestions not only for CR but for other areas so we could choose. Her communication was great! Whenever we had questions she was on it with answers immediately. We felt very comfortable when it came time for our trip knowing all that Wendy had done and the things she booked us with (hotels, excursions, car service, etc. We would definitely use Wendy again for our next vacation.
