About Me

Worlds largest weathervane in Whitehorse Yukon!
Worlds largest weathervane in Whitehorse Yukon!

I am the Airfare Expert. I love building complex multi-city and round the world itineraries for my clients. I am well versed in multiple airline distribution systems (GDS) and understand the complexities of airline fare rules. Having travelled on several dozen airlines around the world,

I can also speak to you about the onboard experience, and find the right air product to fit your flight needs. Whether this is your first flight, a helicopter over Greenland or you really want to experience a pod on the A380 across the Pacific. I have the expertise to get you there.

Would you like a stopover en route to visit some family? Or would you like to break a journey to add on an exciting capital city? Many airlines offer complimentary stopovers at their hub cities and some have transit programs that are very attractive. Let's check it out for you on your next long haul.

I have attended many courses with various airline partners over the last 20 years. Most recently:

Connexion YYC 2024 with the Lufthansa Group 

Airline Economics 2023 with Air Canada

I was also elected to the 2023 Corporate Travel Agent Advisory Board with West Jet

I am well versed in the various frequent flyer programs available with the three major alliances: One World, Sky Team and Star Alliance. I can review the best options for your points earning potential an ensure you are accruing mileage as you travel.

*Please note. I do not book Basic Economy Airfare. I can explain to you more about the product and that often you may end up paying more for your flight with the ancillary services you may require. Often I can propose to you a better fare bracket to meet your needs.

So many bucket list tris with Vicky!
Reviewed By HLD - Calgary, AB | Traveled to Turks and Caicos Islands ~ Caribbean
Vicky always goes above and beyond to ensure our holidays are perfect. She was able to cancel on short notice due to illness and spent hours working with the trip provider to re-protect us at a later date. One of our best vacations ever.
Vicky Young responded
"Thank you HLD. I appreciate you and your family trusting me with your holidays over the years. I was especially invested in this one when things didn't go as planned. I knew how much you were all looking forward to spending time in the islands. I'm so glad that we were able to get the re-protection done and that you all had the BEST VACATION EVER!!!"
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Saved us from missing several delayed flights! She is gracious, personable and kind! I wouldn’t want to make any trips in the future without her help!
