3 Things Travel Agents Do During Hurricane Season

Hurricane season runs from the beginning of June until the end of November, which is a quite a long stretch of the calendar to be concerned about your travel plans. Even with the threat of potential bad weather, these months are extremely popular for vacations. Between summer vacation, wedding and honeymoon season, and lower rates during the peak fall hurricane months, this stretch of the year is bustling. Purchasing travel protection with your package helps protect your plans, even if you might be disappointed by rescheduling that much-needed break from work!

Here are three ways I have helped my clients during hurricane season, particularly during the extremely active 2019 season that affected several of my travelers.

Monitor the weather and its impact on your vacation:
When I know a hurricane could disrupt your travel plans, I keep a close eye on NOAA updates and announcements and advisories from tour companies, resorts, and cruise lines. This allows me to provide you with your options in the event we must change plans. 

Change or cancel your reservations:
Here’s a major perk to you: you have one person dedicated to you and your travel plans. This means no being bounced around a call center, no waiting on endless holds as thousands of other travelers work to change their plans, and no worrying about the dirty details. I do all of that for you, working as many hours as it takes to do so.

Care:
I genuinely care about my clients – I want you first and foremost, to be safe, and then really enjoy your time away. I will do everything possible to make sure that all arrangements go smoothly so you can relax, but will work with my suppliers if we need to make changes.

Hurricane season is difficult to avoid, but when working with a travel agent who advocates for your safety and travel plans, you can relax a bit knowing you’re in capable hands.
