Why travel advisors are more important than ever

Do you know which countries—even states—you can travel to right now? Do you know what the requirements are? The list changes every week. It’s not fun to do, but think back to March when countries first started shutting down borders. Thousands upon thousands of people had to scramble to get home with little or conflicting information. Those who booked with online travel agencies had an unbelievably difficult time getting a person on the phone and often got little help when they could talk to someone. If you were traveling during that time, it's an experience you’ll never forget.


Those who worked with travel advisors not only got through to them, they most often found that their advisors were already working to rebook them and get them home safely. We advisors worked tirelessly with our partners to get refunds and future travel credits for our clients, and as restrictions stretched on for weeks and then months we helped them dream of future travels. We advised on booking early for next year as places fill up fast given the huge increase in demand and limited capacity.


We remain up to date on the ever-changing regulations, safety protocols and trends to enable socially distanced travel. It’s a lot of work, but it’s reflective of what we do. We are your experts in the field of travel and have relationships with partners on the ground all over the world. Our clients have a VIP experience wherever they go. Now that safety is the new luxury, it’s just another thing we’ve added to our repertoire. We work with the best of the best, and they help us make sure your experience is safe and enjoyable.


We don’t just handle the nitty-gritty details of getting you from Point A to Point B so you can focus on having a great time. We also craft indelible life moments you can’t find on the internet, and maybe couldn’t even find in your imagination. With the Virtuoso Wanderlist tool, we can help envision your next adventure or series of adventures and discover excursions you didn’t know existed. You might even find that there’s a destination you never would have thought about that matches your wish list. Dream with us. Plan with us. Let’s get back to creating the good kind of unforgettable experience. Reach us at 609-933-1763 or vicky.malakoff@destinationuncharted.com to get started.
