It’s time that I talk about AI. 🤖

Because lately, I feel like it’s EVERYWHERE. 💫

I’ve watched it start popping up more and more in the travel industry. I’m already seeing it integrated into Disney’s own digital ecosystem—and then Instagram casually served me an ad for an AI “personal travel agent” just the other day that promises to plan AND book your vacation for you. 🫪😬

And I went… ohhhhhhh. okay. 👀

As an ACTUAL Travel Advisor—and someone who absolutely uses AI and other incredible technologies in both my everyday job and my small business—I have a LOT of thoughts about AI.

And this may surprise some people, but I do not think AI is inherently bad.

In short, this is not an “AI BAD! HUMANS GOOD!” post. 😂 Technology is changing how we plan travel, and I don’t necessarily think that’s a bad thing.

But I do think there’s a conversation we need to have about what we gain—and what we potentially lose—when we hand something as personal as a vacation entirely over to technology.

So I put my thoughts into 11 slides instead of writing you my usual novel in the caption. 🤭

Take a moment to swipe through 👉🏼 and PLEASE come back here, because I genuinely want to know:

• Would you trust AI to plan your entire vacation? 🤖
• Tell me why or why not.

I’m really curious what everyone thinks.👇🏼

The •C• Family is officially BOOKED aboard the Disney Destiny for a 5-Night Halloween on the High Seas Western Caribbean Cruise from Fort Lauderdale! 🚢🎃⚡️

This will be their very first Disney Cruise Line vacation, and I am sooooooooo excited for them! 🥹💙

Their adventure includes:
🇲🇽 Cozumel, Mexico
🇧🇸 Disney Castaway Cay
🎃 Halloween on the High Seas
🏴‍☠️ Five magical nights aboard the villainist ship

They’ll be staying in a Deluxe Oceanview Stateroom with a Large Porthole—perfect for waking up to those beautiful ocean views! 🌅

But truly one of my most favorite parts of this booking? ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Kelly found me because another family I’ve worked with sent her my way! 🩷 There really is no bigger compliment to my little business than when one of my clients trusts me enough to recommend me to their friends and family. It seriously means the world to me! 🥹🩷

Oh, and did I mention? We’re already planning beyond the cruise! 😂 Kelly mentioned wanting to take her little one to Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique at Magic Kingdom in November too, so naturally my brain immediately went: “UM YES! What are our dates? Do we have park tickets? Where are we staying?” 👑🤭

Thank you •C• Family for trusting me with your family’s very first Disney cruise. I am soooooooo excited to watch this adventure come together for you all—it’s going to be spooktacular! 👻🚢✨ HEHE 🤭

The •S• Family is officially going to Walt Disney World for their VERY FIRST visit! 🥹🩷

This January three generations are going to experience the Most Magical Place on Earth, together! 🥰

They’ll be staying in two Finding Nemo Family Suites at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort—an awesome Value Resort option for families who want a little extra space! 🐠🫧🐙 Plus, they’ll have the Disney Skyliner right outside their resort (a personal favorite of ours) with direct access to EPCOT and Hollywood Studios! 🚡✨

Their vacation includes four park days, giving them the opportunity to experience all four Walt Disney World theme parks while still leaving room in their week to slow down, enjoy their resort, explore Disney Springs, and simply be. 🩷

Now comes my FAVORITE part—the planning! 🤭💕

We’re already talking about where they want to eat, which characters their little one wants to meet, and the Magical Extras that will make her very first Disney vacation even more special. ✨

Because the goal isn’t to do everything.

It’s to figure out what will feel magical to them. 🩷

This little girl is only going to experience Walt Disney World for the first time once—and she gets to do it with her parents, grandparents, and uncle! 🥹

I LOVE introducing first-timers to Walt Disney World! 🥹 There’s just something extra special about getting to help a family experience all of this for the very first time. ✨✨✨

Reviews like this mean SO much to my little business! 💗🥹

This was M’s very first Walt Disney World vacation, and from the beginning, my goal wasn’t to cram as much Disney as humanly possible into a few days. 😂 It was simply to help create a vacation that worked for their family.

To listen. To make recommendations based on what they needed. To take some of the planning pressure off Mom and Dad. To think through the little details so they could actually be present once they got there. ✨

While they were actually at Disney, I did receive a truly sweet text:

“Thank you for helping us get the Ohana reservation!!!!! M danced and smiled with every character and asked them each to spell their name for her. A really amazing morning for all of us!”

🥹 This is the stuff that makes being someone’s Travel Fairy so incredibly special. 💗💗💗

When I was up early trying to grab that ’Ohana reservation, I obviously had no idea what that morning would eventually look like—I was just booking their wish list reservations.

Then you get a message like this and realize what one of those little reservations actually became for a family. 🥹

This is why I care so much about the little details. 🥰✨

The reservation isn’t the memory.
The itinerary isn’t the memory.
The planning isn’t the memory.

It’s what all of those little things make room for. 🩷

Anna, thank you for trusting me with such a special first for your family. Getting to play even a teeny tiny part in M’s first Disney vacation was an absolute joy. ✨

I cannot WAIT to see where I get to send you guys next. 🤭🩷

🥹 THIS. 🥰

I never expect my clients to text me while they’re on vacation. Truly. They’re busy making memories—as they should be!!! 🩷 But every once in a while, my phone lights up with a photo and a message like this… and I can’t even explain how much joy it brings me! 🥹

I received this from one of my families currently at Walt Disney World:

“Thank you for helping us get the Ohana reservation!!!!! Maya danced and smiled with every character and asked them each to spell their name for her. A really amazing morning for all of us!”

😭😭😭

THIS is why I get up at ridiculous hours to make dining reservations for my clients. 😂

Because it’s never just an ’Ohana reservation. 🌺

It’s a five-year-old dancing and smiling with every character. 🥹 It’s Mom and Dad getting to sit there and watch their little girl experience all of this for the very first time, together. ✨

I may be the one behind the computer securing reservations, building itineraries, researching, planning, obsessing over the little details, and sprinkling in all my Travel Fairy tips 🧚🏼‍♀️✨ but they’re the ones who take all those plans and turn them into memories.

And when a family lets me peek into one of those memories while it’s actually happening?!

My whole heart just glows. 🥹🩷

Thank you for trusting me with your vacation •D• Family and for letting me play even the tiniest part in your world. 🥰

(I seriously love this job!) ✨

⚓✨ The •L• Family is officially setting sail aboard the Disney Wish on a 3-Night Bahamian Cruise from Port Canaveral! 🚢💙

The best part? This trip came together because after hearing her cousin was sailing on the Disney Wish, Liseth decided she and her little one didn’t want to miss out on the adventure! 🥹

Their itinerary includes:
🏝️ Disney Castaway Cay
🇧🇸 Nassau, Bahamas
🚢 Three magical nights aboard the Disney Wish

For their very first Disney Cruise Line vacation, they’ll be staying in a Deluxe Oceanview Stateroom with Verandah on Deck 10 Forward—just one deck below their cousins! Even better, I was able to secure a stateroom with one of the coolest views on the ship: their private verandah overlooks the Disney Wish’s bridge, giving them a unique perspective that few guests get to experience. ⚓✨

One of my favorite details? Their stateroom features Moana-inspired artwork—a perfect theme for a voyage across the ocean. 🌺 It feels like such a fitting little touch for a first Disney Cruise Line adventure.

Thank you, •L• Family, for trusting me to help plan your family’s very first sailing! I can’t wait to watch your Disney Cruise story begin. 🥰

⚓ Thinking about your own Disney Cruise Line vacation? Whether you’re dreaming of a quick Bahamian escape or a week-long adventure, I’ll help you compare ships, staterooms, itineraries, and budgets to find the vacation that’s just right for your family. 🚢✨

One vacation. Twelve travelers. Six staterooms. Three generations. and a LOT of moving pieces. 🤪🛳️✨

I poured so much time and care into making sure everyone had all the information they needed—I didn’t want any one person to become the designated family travel coordinator. 😉

So, I created six personalized Travefy portfolios for their six staterooms, filled with excursion and flight details, downloadable cruise documents, online check-in requirements, luggage tags, packing information, port day specifics, dining and dress code information, and answers to all those little questions that inevitably pop up along the way. 💕

When Lisa wrote that I “thankfully kept those lovely family members from peppering [her] with questions,” I laughed out loud. 😂 Because—YES—that is absolutely what I do! ☺️👍🏼

My clients shouldn’t have to spend their vacation—or the months leading up to it—answering everyone else’s questions. That’s what I’m here for. 🩷

Thank you, Lisa, for trusting me to help take care of your family and for this incredibly kind review on Google! Truly seeing all 12 of you together, happy and making memories, is exactly why I love what I do! 🥹🫶🏼

The value of a travel advisor isn’t always in making the reservation.

It’s helping you navigate everything that comes after the deposit.

Deadlines. Travel protection. Payment schedules. Transportation. Port Adventures. Onboard reservations. The countless details that can quickly become overwhelming.

One thing many travelers don’t realize is that I also offer paid consultation services for vacations that weren’t originally booked through me.

Whether the booking transfer window has passed, the reservation was made independently, or someone simply needs expert guidance along the way, there are situations where I can still step in and help.

Because at the end of the day, my goal is the same: helping clients feel confident, prepared, and excited for their vacation. 🩷✨

Travel advisors don’t just book vacations.

We help travelers navigate them. 🥰✨

The •A• Family is officially setting sail aboard the Disney Wish on a 3-Night Bahamian Cruise from Port Canaveral! 🚢⚓️

After exploring several different itineraries, ships, dates, and stateroom options together, we found the perfect fit for their family—a sailing that balances budget, value, and Disney magic while still giving them some incredible experiences.

Their adventure includes:
🌴 Disney Castaway Cay
🇧🇸 Nassau, Bahamas
🚢 All the magic aboard the new Disney Wish! ✨

As a family of five, they’ll be staying in a Deluxe Family Oceanview Stateroom with Verandah on Deck 11, giving them their own private balcony to enjoy ocean views while being just steps away from all the fun and magic onboard. 🎉☀️ And even better—they took advantage of Disney Cruise Line’s Kids Sail 50% Off promotion before it expired, saving their family thousands of dollars on this unforgettable vacation! 🚢✨

One of my favorite details? Their stateroom features 💚💜❤️ Little Mermaid-inspired artwork, making it the perfect home base for a family setting sail on their very first Disney Cruise Line vacation. 🧜🏻‍♀️✨

From Broadway-style entertainment and rotational dining to character encounters, deck parties, fireworks at sea, and Disney’s private island paradise, this sailing may be short—but it’s packed with magical memories waiting to happen.

And the best part? 🎉 One special birthday celebration will be happening onboard, making this trip even more memorable for the entire family. 🎂😍

Thank you •A• Family for trusting me to help plan your adventure. I cannot wait to watch your family’s first Disney cruise story unfold! 🥰✨

⚓ Thinking about your own Disney Cruise Line vacation? Whether you’re dreaming of a quick getaway or a week-long adventure, I’ll help you compare ships, stateroom, budgets, and all the little details that make a big difference. 🚢✨🩷

JUST BOOKED: A SURPRISE END-OF-SUMMER DISNEY ESCAPE! 🐾✨

The W Family is heading to Disney’s Port Orleans Resort – Riverside for a spontaneous 48-hour road trip adventure before the new school year begins—and it’s a surprise! 🤫 This will be the family’s very first vacation traveling with their four-legged family member too! 🐾

They’re checking into one of the newly reimagined Royal Guest Rooms, now inspired by Princess Tiana and Prince Naveen. Guests will discover beautiful new details throughout the room, including stunning mosaic and stained-glass artwork inspired by The Princess and the Frog, plus special touches that make the room feel truly magical—including a personalized note from Princess Tiana herself. ✨🐸👑

And here’s the unique part… they don’t have theme park tickets! 🤭

Just three days and two nights dedicated to slowing down, reconnecting, and soaking in all the Disney magic beyond the parks.

So many people think you need park tickets to experience Disney magic, but honestly? Disney resorts are destinations all by themselves. Once you arrive, you’re wrapped in the Disney bubble—immersive theming, incredible dining, transportation, recreation, entertainment, and that unmistakable Disney feeling.

🐾 Did you know?

A select number of Walt Disney World resorts are pet-friendly! Guests traveling with dogs receive:
• designated pet walking areas,
• pet relief stations throughout the resort,
• easy access to outdoor spaces,
• the opportunity to keep their furry family members right in the room with them, and
• a special Pluto welcome kit for their canine companion upon arrival.

And if you’re hoping for a little character magic without entering a theme park, many Disney resorts offer Character Dining experiences, and it’s not uncommon to spot Disney Characters making appearances at resorts throughout your stay—some of the most magical moments happen when you least expect them. ✨♥️✨

The best vacations don’t always require months of planning. ✨

Sometimes all it takes is a tank of gas, no weekend plans, and a little Disney magic. ✨😉

Who else would love a spontaneous Disney staycation with their family (and their dog)? 🐾🐶👑
