Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why should I used a Travel Advisor?
A: Planning a Disney or Universal vacation involves much more than choosing a hotel. From understanding ticket options and resort locations to dining strategies, Lightning Lane planning, promotions, and all the little details in between, I'm here to simplify the process and help you make the most of your vacation. Think of me as your behind-the-scenes planning partner from the moment you book until you return home.✨
Q: What types of vacations do you plan?
A: I specialize in Disney destinations and Universal vacations, including Walt Disney World, Disneyland Resort, Disney Cruise Line, Aulani: A Disney Resort & Spa, Adventures by Disney, Universal Orlando Resort, Universal Studios Hollywood, and Universal Kids Resort. Whether you're planning a family vacation, adults-only getaway, celebration trip, or runDisney weekend, I'll help create a vacation that's tailored to your travel style, budget, and priorities. ✨
Q: Do I have to pay extra for your planning services?
A: Most vacation packages booked through Long Live Wishes Travel include my planning services at no additional cost. Certain vacation types—such as ticket-only purchases or select custom planning services—may require a planning fee. If a planning fee applies, I'll always discuss it with you upfront before we begin planning. ✨
Q: How do I book my vacation with you?
A: Simply fill out the my quote request form on my website or reach out via email. I'll learn more about your vacation wishes, prepare personalized recommendations, and guide you through every step—from choosing the perfect resort to planning the details that make your vacation uniquely yours. ✨
Q: Can you help me with dining reservations and Lightning Lane planning?
A: Absolutely! I provide personalized recommendations, dining strategies, Lightning Lane guidance, and planning timelines to help you make the most of your vacation. My goal is to help you spend less time researching and more time enjoying the magic. ✨
Q: What if I need to cancel or change my vacation?
A: Changes and cancellations are subject to the supplier's Terms & Conditions, along with any travel protection you've purchased. If your plans change, I'll help you understand your options and guide you through the process every step of the way. ✨
Q: Do I need travel insurance?
A: While travel protection isn't required, I highly recommend it. Unexpected situations can happen, and travel protection can help safeguard your vacation investment. I'm happy to explain your coverage options so you can decide what's best for your family. Full details are available on the guest resource page. ✨
Q: How far in advance should I book?
A: The earlier, the better! Booking early gives you the best selection of resorts, room types, dining reservations, and special offers. Some vacations can be booked more than a year in advance, so once you have a travel window in mind, it's never too early to start planning.✨
Q: Can you help me book airport transfers?
A: Absolutely! I work with trusted transportation partners offering both shared shuttle and private transfer options. I'll help coordinate your airport transportation so you can start your vacation stress-free from the moment you arrive.✨
Q: I’m part of a Facebook planning group and someone said “XYZ.” Is that true?
A: Facebook groups can be a wonderful source of inspiration, but they can also be full of outdated—or simply incorrect—information. My job is to help you sort through the noise with verified, up-to-date guidance tailored to your vacation. Think of me as your trusted planning partner, so you can spend less time second-guessing and more time getting excited for your trip.✨
Q: Do you monitor for new Disney promotions or discounts after I book?
A: Yes! If a new promotion becomes available that applies to your reservation, I'll review it and apply it whenever possible so you receive the best available pricing.✨
Q: Can you book flights?
A: While I specialize in vacation planning rather than airfare, I'm happy to provide flight recommendations. I can also help coordinate airport transportation to make your travel days as smooth as possible.✨
