Many of us have been staying close to home throughout 2020. I don’t know about you, but I am ready to get out and see the world! With recent news of a vaccine on its way, it is a great time to start planning your next vacation. Here’s why planning for future travel is better than ever!
1. Deals! There are so many offers and great deals out right now to destinations all around the world. Cruise lines have also deeply cut their pricing. And while the next few months might be uncertain, late 2021 and 2022 is a great time to focus on! Once a vaccine is out and things begin to return to normal we do anticipate a strong surge in bookings which means some of these amazing deals will go away.
2. Flexible change and cancel policies. Most of our key partners have modified their terms and conditions allowing for more peace of mind and flexibility during this time of unknowns. Take advantage of that and book now.
3. Vacation on layaway. Booking in advance allows you more time to pay it off! It also might mean you can afford a better trip in a better resort and with more experiences.
4. There are several great destinations that are open for tourism if you are ready to travel now! Mexico and Costa Rica are great options and do not require a negative COVID test. The Caribbean is mostly open with restrictions. Hawaii is also open with restrictions.
5. Travel brings joy! 2020 has been a rough year and we all need some silver lining. Having travel booked gives you something to look forward to. It may be a trip booked in a year, but it is a light at the end of the tunnel.
