What A Travel Agent Can Do For You

12/21/2023

If you’re planning a vacation, one of the most important decisions you’ll make is whether to work with a travel agent to plan your trip. The answer is YES! You should use a travel agent! There are so many benefits to working with a travel agent. Here are a few things your travel agent at Just Add Magic Travel® can do to make planning your vacation a stress-free and enjoyable experience.

Save Time

Are you tired of spending hours pouring through blog posts, Facebook communities, vlogs, and waiting on hold with Disney to find answers to your travel questions? We’re just a phone call, email, or text away. We stay updated on the latest policies and offerings for magical destinations, which has never been more critical. No more need to waste time researching topics like the best restaurants at Disney World for birthday celebrations. We frequently visit the parks and share our experiences to help you find great places to eat and have fun on your trip.

Personalize Your Vacation

By getting to know you, your family, and your vacation preferences, we can recommend hotels, cruises, and all-inclusive vacations that fit your desires and are enjoyable trips for everyone in your group. Whether you’re looking for an intimate, romantic getaway or a group adventure on a large cruise line, we’ll assist you in planning it all.

Reduce Stress

Travel has gotten more complicated in the last few years, making it more important to have a travel agent help you navigate destinations like Disney theme parks and cruises. Managing all the aspects that go into planning your vacation can be overwhelming, such as determining when you can book Disney dining reservations, whether you should add on Genie+, get a Universal Express Pass, or figure out how to make a reservation at the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique. Vacations are meant to relieve stress—not create it! Working with a trusted travel agent takes the stress out of planning your trip and gets you back to what you should focus on: making memories with your family.  

Oversee Details ​

Whether you’re celebrating a honeymoon with two people or a family reunion with your entire extended family, we’ll take care of the logistics.  

We understand that life can get hectic, and it’s easy to miss important travel deadlines like cruise payment installments. That’s why we keep track of these deadlines for you and make payments on your behalf to ensure you're set for a fun-filled adventure. 

We can also reserve dining reservations at Disney and Universal. If your preferred dining location isn't available when your booking window opens, we'll regularly check to see if there are cancellations. This can save you tons of time searching through available reservations on My Disney Experience.
​

Delight You with Extras ​

We develop a personal relationship with you, which allows us to suggest and offer experiences that will surprise and delight your family. From firework viewing aboard a ferryboat on Seven Seas Lagoon to off-the-beaten-path dining experiences, we know what experiences will leave your family saying, “Wow!” We can recommend fun and exciting experiences and destinations you may not have considered, opening up a whole new world of possibilities.

Find Discounts and Deals

One benefit of working with a travel agent is deal and discount monitoring. We stay up to date on the latest promotions from destinations like Disney, Universal, and Royal Caribbean Cruise Line and apply them to your trip when eligible. We also access a wide range of travel deals that are nearly impossible to find on your own, with exclusive amenities like upgraded rooms and complimentary extras. Our supplier network ensures you get the best vacation deals possible! If you’ve already booked your trip, we’ll monitor promotions for you and apply them to your trip as they’re released.

Booking a Disney vacation takes a lot of preparation and hard work, from figuring out what resort you want to stay at to securing dining reservations.

Just Add Magic Travel’s® Survival Guide to Holiday Theme Park Trips

11/14/2023

0 Comments

 
Picture
There’s nothing like Christmas at Disney and Universal! The theme parks deck every hall with festive decorations and seasonal offerings. It’s no wonder why so many people take advantage of the fun and magic of the season and visit during the holidays. This also makes it the busiest time of the year to visit the parks, so the holiday magic you envisioned could quickly be overshadowed by unmet expectations, interruptions, and planning failures. Check out these tips and tricks to ensure your family has a magical holiday vacation that will be a positive memory for years to come. 

Set Expectations ​

The right mindset about what your holiday theme park trip will be like is crucial to vacation planning success. Go into your vacation knowing that it’ll be busy, the lines will be long, and it will take longer than you expect to accomplish your must-do attractions in the parks. Allot more time than you initially expect to find a spot for parades and fireworks, and allow extra time to travel between theme parks (Disney recommends accounting for 1.5 hours of travel when using Disney transportation). ​

Before your trip, sit down with your family to discuss your priorities regarding attractions and activities. Does your family want to jump from thrill ride to thrill ride all day? Are you itching to get a family photo in matching Christmas PJs in front of the castle? Do you have young kids who can barely contain their excitement to meet Mickey? Do you want to prioritize taking a midday break at the resort? Discuss these things before you leave so everyone’s on the same page.
