Today I thought I might share one of my favorite itineraries – to Italy! Italy – Mi Amore! I adore Italy, as most of you probably know. It’s my favorite country and where I love to go. So I thought maybe sharing my itinerary would inspire you as well!
So what does that mean? As of today, September 3rd, 2021, nothing! None of the countries have rolled back their policy to not allow Americans into their countries. Each individual country gets to decide for themselves if they will allow us in or not. It also means they choose if they wish to add any new rules to their entry process.
So what is new on the EU Vaccination Announcements? On Monday, August 30, 2021, the EU announced that they “might” recommend the US to be removed from the safe countries to accept into their countries. Of course, this was another “oh no” moment for me, a travel advisor who focuses on this region. The next day, they recommended that the US not travel to the EU except for nonessential travel. The reason for this was the rising number of cases of covid-19 again among the unvaccinated people in the USA.
This week’s blog is about why I love to travel. I grew up without much money. Travel to me meant being in a car for many hours, bored and squished with my siblings. As a teenager, my goal in life was to travel. I didn’t want to have kids. I just wanted to see as many places as I could. Of course, that wasn’t how my life went. I had kids (which I am extremely thankful for) and I didn’t travel a lot until much later. I feel like I am still making up for lost time now as an empty nester. I love to travel and I cannot get enough new experiences!
I know we are all in love with the idea of traveling, visiting exotic places, and let’s face it, a great airport lounge on the way or the return just makes the trip. Today’s blog is going to be about my “favorite” first-class airport lounge.
I just boarded flight to Vegas for a conference, Virtuoso Travel Week. I am excited to be spend the week meeting new colleagues and partners in the travel industry. It will be a crazy busy week, but worth every minute of it. But while I was boarding, I was reminded that this is a service industry. With all things covid, its been easily forgotten that its okay to be nice to people, to be social, etc. Today’s post is going to be about how we can Make Someone’s Day.
Traveling to Europe is not what it once was. There are hoops to jump through, testing requirements, and now the all-important vaccination card for covid-19 vaccination. Having just had a long lengthy discussion about how this works, I thought it might be a good topic for today’s blog. Vaccination cards and traveling currently: 101.
the United States. The important thing at this time is to stay abreast and updated particularly if you have a specific destination in mind as restrictions and guidelines can (and do) change daily. These details are correct as of 07/28/2021. The following is not an exhaustive list but there are some of my favorites that make for great vacations. Who is open?
This has been a prominent topic lately as everyone is ready to get out and travel again, and not everyone is checking if they “can”. As a public service announcement, I am trying to remind everyone that I know to check their passports. Do you have an expiring passport?
Hawaii has certainly become an even more popular destination than it was previously with the travel restrictions going on. However, I come with some good news in relation to visiting Hawaii. Hawaii has just relaxed its travel restrictions for fully vaccinated travelers. So if you are 15 days past the second shot (or 15 days past the J&J shot) then you can travel to Hawaii without testing. They also no longer require testing to travel between the islands anymore. You do, however, still have to upload your information to the Safe Travels Portal. You can click here for more information on that.
