When it comes to planning your adventures, whether a quick getaway or a comprehensive world tour, having a travel credit card in your wallet is more than just a convenience—it’s a gateway to a host of benefits that can enhance your travel experience. Here’s why you should consider getting one before your next trip.
Chances are, you already have a destination in mind for your next vacation. Statistically, chances are even greater that you have not created a budget for the trip. Most American travelers will only create an estimated amount for the total trip cost after they decide on the destination, but very few create a realistic budget … even fewer stick to it! According to the Detroit Free Press, 68% of Americans overspend on their vacations! Why? Because they fail to create a realistic budget and plan ahead for travel expenses. As your travel advisor, I want to help set you up for success!
Let’s face it, America. You need a vacation. Don’t believe me? Well, according to the U. S. Travel Association, in 2018 Americans left 768 million vacation days unused. That’s a lot of PTO, my friends. And a lot of missed opportunity to reduce stress levels, avoid burnout and spend time with loved ones.
2020 is almost upon us and now seems as good a time as any to set goals for the new year. Traveling to a bucket list destination is a goal that often ends up on many New Year’s resolution lists. Sometimes these goals can seem unattainable or too far out of reach. But with a little planning and maybe a slight shift in mindset, you can turn these goals into a concrete reality.
