About Me

Where Pleasure + Leisure = Ultimate Satisfaction
Where Pleasure + Leisure = Ultimate Satisfaction

I opened Travel P.L.U.S., a home-based travel agency, after I retired in 2018. While working my children and I took short vacations, but I knew that once retirement came and my children were grown and gone, I would be one of those mature travelers. I opened Travel P.L.U.S. because of my love for travel and to help others who believe that travel is out of their reach. My expertise is in family/multi-generational, accessible and solo travel.

I have completed trainings through The Travel Institute and obtained the Certified Travel Associate (CTA) certificate, and obtained Destination Specialist certifications for Alaska, Caribbean, Mexico, North America, and Northern/Central Europe. I have also completed training and obtain specialist status for the Bahamas, Saint Lucia and the US Virgin Islands. 

I am passionate and dedicated to designing the best possible P.L.U.S. experience, so you and your family can create memories that will last a lifetime. In the words of Robin Leach, let me help you make your "champagne wishes and caviar dreams" come true (1994).

I am ready take on the complex details of planning your next P.L.U.S. experience: Pleasure + Leisure = Ultimate Satisfaction.

Client Testimonials

Customer Service A+
Ms. Perkins is awesome! She assisted me in planning a long awaited trip to see my family in Brazil. She was able to get me a good deal on airfare and hotel and it was a lot cheaper than going directly to the airline or hotels. I would recommend her to family and friends. Customer Service A+
Sean L., Bay Area, CA
Quality Service
I love this agency! They ask the right questions and make it so easy to plan a quality trip. Whether your going internationally or locally, give this agency a try for all your travel needs. Girls trips (we went Aruba), family trips (we went to D.C.), and even corporate events and gatherings. Accurate quotes and timely response.
Meka P., Bay Area, CA
Out-of-State Family Vacation
"Oreitha, you made our first family trip out of California, the best ever! Thank you for helping us make the decision to visit Washington, D.C., we were amazed at what the area had to offer. Learning about the different monuments in school was one thing but seeing them in person made history come alive for us. Visiting the Martin Luther King, Jr. Monument and the African American Museum at the Smithsonian was emotional, especially me. We will be planning another trip soon. Thank you!"
Debra S., San Diego, CA
P.L.U.S. Experience Success
Oreitha, thank you so much for the wonderful work you did for our group trip to Montego Bay, Jamaica. We were very pleased with the choices you shared with us, the pre-arranged transportation to/from the airport, and during our excursions. Your suggestions on where to eat and sights to see were on point and made our trip that much more enjoyable, even for me, a pregnant lady in July weather. Thank you!"
