When I first became a travel agent at the end of last year, I had no idea just how quickly things would take off. Just two months into my journey as a travel agent in 2025, I am blown away by the trust my clients have placed in me and the incredible destinations I’ve had the privilege of booking for them.

 

From tropical island getaways to breathtaking European itineraries, I’ve been helping people turn their travel dreams into reality—and I am loving every second of it! Helping people create memories that last a lifetime is my ultimate goal, and I’m beyond excited about where this adventure is headed!


I'm always ready to help you plan an adventure and usually packing for my own!!

Here’s a look at the ships and destinations I’ve booked so far this year:


🚢 Sailing to Paradise: The Cruises I’ve Sold


Utopia of the Seas first set sail in August 2024.

Utopia of the Seas

📍 Itinerary: Nassau & Perfect Day at CocoCay, Bahamas (Royal Caribbean's Private Island)

This brand-new ship is making waves in 2025, and my clients are ready to experience everything it has to offer! With stops in Nassau and Royal Caribbean’s award-winning private island, CocoCay, this trip promises adventure, relaxation, and plenty of sunshine.

✨ Success Story: Utopia of the Seas has been my most booked ship so far this year—and for good reason! With its weekend sailings and next-level onboard entertainment, it’s perfect for quick getaways, family trips, and bachelor/bachelorette celebrations. Many of my clients were surprised to learn that booking early gave them access to the lowest prices and the best room selections. Because I have access to real-time availability, I was able to secure an oversized balcony stateroom—one of the most spacious non-suite cabins on the ship—for less than the cost of a balcony guarantee room (typically the lowest rate available to consumers). That’s an upgraded experience for a better price, and exactly why working with a travel agent makes all the difference!


Roatan, Honduras is for both beachgoers or adventure-seekers, boasting both some of the world's most beautiful beaches but also offering jungle tours and ATV rentals.

Harmony of the Seas

📍 Itinerary: Roatán, Honduras; Puerto Costa Maya, Mexico; Cozumel, Mexico

A true Oasis-class favorite, this sailing is packed with dreamy destinations. From the crystal-clear waters of Roatán to the vibrant culture of Cozumel, my clients are in for an unforgettable adventure.

✨ Success Story: This client had an incredible opportunity—a free oceanview balcony room thanks to a casino offer! But navigating the fine print of casino vouchers can be tricky, and that’s where I stepped in. I handled all the planning to ensure they maximized every perk, from securing the best available stateroom to making sure they didn’t leave any benefits on the table. Now, they’re set to sail on Harmony of the Seas for an unforgettable adventure—without the stress of figuring out the details themselves!


Dunn's River Falls is a world renowned, 180-foot waterfall in Falmouth, Jamaica that draws millions of visitors annually.

Oasis of the Seas

📍 Itinerary: CocoCay; Falmouth, Jamaica; Labadee, Haiti

A mix of private island luxury and cultural immersion, this itinerary offers the best of both worlds. CocoCay’s Thrill Waterpark? Check. Jamaica’s rich history and flavors? Double check. Labadee’s stunning beaches? Absolutely!

✨ Success Story: This client was able to take advantage of an incredible deal for Spring Break thanks to a special room held by my travel agency—saving them over $3,000 compared to booking on their own! An itinerary that includes both CocoCay and Labadee is highly sought after, and I can’t wait for my clients to set sail on this one in just a few weeks! Thanks to my personalized booking system and real-time availability, I’m able to offer clients upgrades and extra perks that booking independently wouldn’t get them.


While many of its details remain a mystery, Star of the Seas sets sail late summer 2025 from Port Canaveral (Orlando), Florida.

Star of the Seas

📍 Itinerary: Puerto Costa Maya, Mexico; Roatán, Honduras; Cozumel, Mexico; CocoCay, Bahamas

This ship isn’t even sailing yet, but my clients have already secured their spots for an unforgettable Thanksgiving 2026 itinerary!

✨ Success Story: This one's extra special—because it’s my own family's trip! When Star of the Seas was first announced, I knew I had to jump on the best possible deal. By combining an online promotion, Next Cruise perks, and my exclusive onboard credit (which comes STANDARD for every Royal Caribbean client who books with me!), I locked in a rate that’s now at least $1,500 cheaper than what’s currently available—plus extra onboard credit that new bookings won’t get. This just goes to show: timing, strategy, and knowing the system can make a huge difference in the value of your cruise! 🚢✨


Puerto Plata is known for its beaches but also has ancient ruins as well as many historical tours.

Explorer of the Seas

📍 Itinerary: Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic & CocoCay, Bahamas

Perfect for those looking for a mix of adventure and relaxation, this trip brings together the tropical beauty of the Dominican Republic and the luxury of Royal Caribbean’s award-winning Perfect Day at CocoCay.

✨ Success Story: My client wanted to take advantage of Royal Caribbean’s Next Cruise program, but she wasn’t sure how to maximize her rewards while still keeping her booking with a trusted travel agent. I guided her through the process, ensuring she secured all the perks—from onboard credit to the best possible rate—without losing my personalized planning and support. This is a perfect example of how working with me means you get all the rewards, plus expert guidance to make the most of them! 🚢✨

Odyssey of the Seas

📍 Itinerary: Civitavecchia (Rome); Naples, Italy; Santorini, Greece; Kusadasi, Turkey; Rhodes; Limassol; Mykonos; Piraeus; Souda

This one is extra special because it includes a pre-cruise stay in Rome and an airfare package! The Greek Isles, the Mediterranean, and one of the most beloved cities in the world makes this trip nothing short of bucket-list worthy. (I’m still trying to figure out how I can sneak away with my clients for this one!)

✨ Success Story: My clients—seasoned world travelers and retired Navy veterans—are making travel a priority in their retirement, and they’ve entrusted me as their go-to travel agent. That stamp of approval means the world coming from two people who have seen so much of it! From securing their pre-cruise stay in Rome to bundling their airfare for the best value, I made sure every detail of this bucket-list Mediterranean adventure was handled with precision. I even brought their daughter to tears by how much I planned for them—ensuring a stress-free experience for them and giving their kids peace of mind about their parents traveling to foreign countries. They even told me I was the most thorough travel agent they’ve ever worked with! 🚢✨

🏝 Loyal to Royal but Up for Adventure: Other Cruise Lines + Land Vacations

While I specialize in Royal Caribbean cruises, I also help clients with other types of travel, including all-inclusive resorts and land-based adventures.


Here are some of the non-Royal Caribbean vacations I’ve booked this year:

 

Hyatt Zilara Cancun

A luxurious, adults-only, all-inclusive retreat in the heart of Cancun—perfect for relaxation and indulgence. And this one is extra special because my worlds are colliding—I’ll be photographing an elopement here! Stay tuned for more on that…


Hyatt Zilara Cancun will soon be my home for a few days as I travel there to photograph my first elopement in Cancun, Mexico with my sister brand - Ivey Photo (Learn more at iveyphoto.com)

 Virgin Voyages – Valiant Lady

📍 Itinerary: Miami, Florida; Key West, Florida; Bimini, Bahamas

This adults-only cruise line is redefining the cruising experience, and my clients are all about it! They’re setting off on a girls’ trip aboard this award-winning cruise line that’s taking the industry by storm.

✨ Success Story: This incredible woman, who’s endured unimaginable loss—losing both her daughter and her fiancé—has refused to give up on joy. Instead, she’s channeling her strength into leading fitness classes and embracing her fiancé’s wish for her to travel and live life to the fullest. She’s embarking on a girls' trip aboard Virgin Voyages’ Valiant Lady, an adults-only cruise line that’s revolutionizing the cruising experience. Not only is she taking this trip to honor the memory of her loved ones, but she’s also inspiring others by showing that no matter what life throws your way, you can still find joy and adventure. 💖

MSC Divina

📍 Itinerary: Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve, Bahamas; Nassau, Bahamas

Sailing to MSC’s stunning private island, this trip is all about laid-back luxury.

✨ Success Story: My clients requested an onboard humidor (yes, cigars were a must!), and I found them the perfect match—at an incredible price. They thought their budget would only allow for an interior cabin, but I was able to get them an ocean-view balcony with WiFi and drinks included!


The MSC Divina boasts an on-board humidor, European charm throughout, and a Swarovski staircase you have to SEE to believe!

What This Means for Future Clients

Seeing these bookings come to life has been incredibly exciting, but more than that, it’s shown me just how many people are ready to explore the world with the right guidance. Whether you’re a seasoned traveler or a first-time cruiser, I’m here to make the process seamless and stress-free.

 

I’m currently working on:

✅ An Alaskan cruise for two clients

✅ A Caribbean cruise for a girls' trip

✅ An Caribbean cruise for a three-generation trip

✅ A Royal Caribbean + Universal Studios combo trip

✅ And so much more!

 

If you’ve been dreaming about your next getaway, let’s make it happen! I’d love to help you find the perfect itinerary—whether it’s a quick Bahamas escape or a once-in-a-lifetime Mediterranean adventure.
