  • Yes! Many of our travel partners/suppliers offer various payment options and flexible payment plans. If the supplier doesn’t offer a payment plan, we can offer you an application with Uplift which is subject to credit approval and is not guaranteed. For trips that are planned a year in advance and sometime less, we can often spread your payments out to meet the supplier deadlines and make it a little easier to cash flow.

  • Most of our revenue comes from commissions that are paid by our travel suppliers/partners. Many people think that it is more expensive to book with a travel advisor because of that; however, these commissions are built into the consumer pricing whether you use a travel advisor or not.

    By booking through your travel advisor/agency, those commissions actually get paid out instead of being pocketed by the supplier; thereby supporting small, local businesses instead of large corporations.
