Benefits of Planning with a Life is Better Traveling® Agent

Frequently Asked Questions

What kinds of trips do you help plan?

Pretty much anything! Our clients' reviews mention everything from Disney and Universal parks to Alaska cruises and land & sea combos, European river cruises, honeymoons in Italy and Japan, multi-generational family trips, bus tours through Ireland and Scotland, all-inclusive getaways in Mexico, and more. Whatever kind of trip you're dreaming up, one of our agents has likely planned something similar.

I've never used a travel agent before — will this be easy for me?

Absolutely. So many of our clients tell us this was their first time working with an agent, and they were surprised how simple it was. As one client put it, "I hate planning, so this was a great option." We handle the details so you don't have to.

How responsive are your agents once planning begins?

Very. Our clients consistently mention getting answers quickly — even outside normal hours, and even while they're already on their trip. Several reviews specifically call out agents answering questions "on the ship" or turning around new options in as little as a day when plans changed.

What happens if my plans change after booking?

Changes are part of the process, and our agents are used to it. One recent review said it best: "We threw everything (including changes) at Mary and she handled them perfectly." Whether it's a shifted travel date or a last-minute request, we adjust with you.

Do you only plan family and theme park trips?

Not at all. While Disney and Universal trips are popular with our team, our agents also specialize in cruises, honeymoons, international tours, girls' trips, milestone celebrations, and more. Many clients come to us for one type of trip and return for something completely different the next time.

Can you plan trips for large groups or multiple families traveling together?

Yes! We regularly coordinate trips for extended families, multi-family vacations, and larger groups, keeping everyone's preferences and budgets in mind while managing all the moving pieces so you can focus on enjoying the trip together.

Will my agent still be available once I've left for my trip?

Yes. Our clients often mention staying in touch with their agent throughout the trip itself, not just during planning. If something comes up while you're traveling, we're just a message away.

Do you accommodate special requests or specific needs?

We do our best to make every trip work for your family. Clients have shared how their agents took extra care with accessibility needs, special occasions, and unique requests — and found creative solutions, like locating a last-minute spa reservation on a Sunday.

Will I feel pressured to book things I'm not sure about?

No — our clients describe our agents as knowledgeable and helpful without being pushy. We're here to offer options and guidance, and the final decisions are always yours.

Can I work with the same agent for future trips?

Of course, and many of our clients do exactly that. Several reviews mention having planned multiple trips with the same agent over the years, building a relationship where the agent already knows their travel style and preferences.

How far in advance do you start planning?

Whenever works for you. We've helped clients plan trips as far as two years out and others who needed something put together quickly. Either way, our agents stay on top of every detail from start to finish.

Do you help with the small stuff too, like documents and packing details?

Yes — our agents take care of the details that are easy to overlook, from printing travel documents to sharing packing and planning tips, so you can travel with confidence.
