GoCruise and Travel with David Chidley

18/10/2021

It has been a whole 18 months since you last heard from GoCruise and Travel with David Chidley... (time flies huh...)
That is about to change!
Keep an eye out for an announcement video very soon...
In the meantime if you or anyone you know is looking out for a cruise (we all need/deserve a holiday don't we!) Get in TOUCH!
Love to you all xx

A video for our GOCruise and Travel Customers and followers. It was filmed earlier in the week, just to give you a quick update on what is happening in these strange times we find ourselves in

With the world in semi lock down and us all in limbo - i just wanted to give a little update....

If you have a booking with me in the next month/6 weeks, we will have already spoken about the options to change/cancel.

For any bookings further out, I will be making contact in the next couple of weeks, with what the current advice is from that operator/country when we have updated information.

On a personal note, this is an incredibly tough time for those self-employed/business owners.. (which both Rachel and I are!) So we are both going to be relying on our loyal customers once this has all blown over.

We are spending this time continuing to grow Rachels already incredibly successful Small Paws Services down here in Shoreham. If you are local and need dog walking/cat sitting (or any other "small pawed" animal!) looked after whilst this is all happening OR if you have family/friends locally that may need help - we have some slots available throughout the week to help. Please do get them to contact us.

I am also taking this time to fine tune my GoCruise and Travel business, so this is an even stronger, knowledgeable and dynamic travel provider once this has all blown over! Every cloud and all that..!

Right now, I am currently in Brighton, which has a few hardy soles out and about.. but the coffee shops/restaurants/retails stores etc have just a smattering of people in them - it is so so sad to see. EVERYONE, across every industry is going to need support once this is over.

My immediate focus however, is looking after and providing for my family (my reason for living)
Keep yourselves and loved ones safe ###

Tough times in the Travel Industry and most other business/industries (unless you are Andrex or a hand sanitizing company). I have been mainly spending my time cancelling/re-adjusting peoples imminent travel plans. The worth of having a travel professional sort out your issues is certainly evident right now.

I am going to continue promoting excellent holiday inspiration and offers... (the world is a big place and a lot of it is still open - for now!). The operators i work with are all being flexible should you need to change/cancel your plans due to the fluid nature of this situation. So, if you see something you like, or want me to have source a holiday for you, please make contact.

Finally - i will be here during this AND when this is over.. I will be doing my utmost to do my small part in repairing the untold damage that this situation is doing to the tourism industry. Soon, things will be back to normal - and you will be wanting to travel once again... I ask that when that time comes, you make contact and i will help you and your friends and family get that perfect trip/holiday arranged. Ironically, I think we are all going to need a holiday when this is all over!!!

Keep washing those hands!
Dave

Whilst working at Royal Caribbean we had this wonderful little ditty playing on the ships! It gets stuck in the head - but i think it is probably quite apt right now!!

Royal Caribbean has this Public Service Announcement video "Wash Your Hands" with a catchy tune (try not to get it stuck in your head!) And if you want to si...
