October Cruisers 2014
As a child, I would travel with my mom and family on a Greyhound bus during the summer. The driver would often tell stories about the mountains, the Native Americans and the Grand Canyon. These mythical stories along with the scenic stops along classic diners and natural wonders instilled a sense of travel in me that still lives on today.
When I became a mother myself, I wanted to continue the tradition of family vacations. As my family got bigger and more extended, I was soon planning for in-laws and everyone else making the trips increasingly complicated. I crafted routes, planned itineraries, and found the best entertainment and dining options available for us all.
I quickly realized that I was naturally becoming a travel agent, and I soon made it official by working with Delta Airlines for 3 years. I eventually left Delta to create my own travel agency, Fantasy Travel Professionals, and I now have multiple certifications and specialties from:
- CLIA
- IATA
Both of which are two of the most prestigious organizations for agents. I also have certifications from:
- Disney Cruise Lines
- SeaWorld
- Acapulco
- Jamaica Cruise Lines
- And much more!
My goal is to introduce luxury cruises and world travel to as many people as possible. Whether it’s your first time traveling or the next trip on your lifelong journey, I will make the booking process a breeze.
I have started and operated many travel groups focusing on women, families, and families with special needs or budget constraints. I want everyone to experience the joys of travel, and I firmly believe that enjoyment can be found regardless of the price.
I also specialize in special occasion group travel for weddings, honeymoons, birthdays, anniversaries, and more. Whether you travel alone or with thousands, I will make your travel fantasy come true!
