Planning Fee

Get ready for a personalized vacation experience like no other! As your go-to travel expert, I’m here to make your dream getaway a reality. Navigating the vast world of travel can be overwhelming, but fear not – I'm your compass through the sea of options and regulations. (little bit of cruise humor...⚓) My mission is to make this process as smooth and carefree as possible for you. I work closely with my trusted partners to ensure you get the best experience and value.

  • Exclusive Package Pricing:

    • Speaking of travel partners, I collaborate with many wholesalers and suppliers who offer "package pricing." These are special industry rates that can't be disclosed, but they guarantee savings and a hassle-free trip. You'll receive a total price for your package, covering airfare, accommodations, car rentals, and more. It's all about simplifying your travel experience.

  • Personalized Planning Fee:

    • My work is built on personal experience and professional expertise. I'll recommend the best options tailored to your preferences and assist in selecting the most suitable insurance policy. I'll keep you informed about the latest travel rules, partner updates, and entry requirements for your chosen destination. From deposit to final payment, I've got your back!

    • To get started, I offer a complimentary initial consultation. Once we've discussed your specific requests, there may be a Personalized Planning Fee per household. The fee varies in price due to the complexities of your particular trip. This fee is non-refundable but covers the research and preparation of a proposed itinerary tailored just for you. Even if you choose not to book with Jill the Travel Gal, the fee ensures you receive personalized attention and expertise.

  • Trip Management:

    • After the trip deposit is made, I take on the responsibility of monitoring your itinerary for any supplier-related changes. I'll relay essential information from our travel partners to you and oversee the reservation process. When the final payment is complete, I'll prepare your trip documentation, which you'll receive before departure. During your trip, I'll be available for any questions or issues that may arise. Plus, you'll have access to a digital itinerary on your phone – a feature my clients love!

  • Staying in Touch:

    • While I spend much of my time crafting incredible experiences with my partners, I understand that communication is key. Email is typically the most convenient way for us to stay in touch, but if you prefer a call, that's no problem at all. Just shoot me an email to schedule one, and providing details in advance will help us make it as productive as possible.
