FAQs

Why do I need a travel agent?

Simply put, it will take the headache out of planning and help you enjoy the entire process. We are experts in our destinations. We have tons of training under our belt. We spend countless hours staying up to date on the latest information so that you can have the most magical experience.

When do I need to pay?

That varies by destination. Most destinations require a deposit upfront and the remainder 90-40 days prior. If booking close to travel dates, full payment is due at the time of booking.

How far in advance should I book?

The short answer is as soon as possible. The further out you book the more room options you have. Not always, but a lot of the time the further out you book the better price you receive, but no matter what destination you choose when you book with me you will get the “price watch service.”

What is the price watch service?

We at Ears of Experience offer all of our clients the “price watch service.” If a new pricing deal becomes available after booking with me I will check to see if your reservation falls under the parameters. If your reservation is applicable I will make the changes and you will save.
