I'd like to introduce STEPHANIE CABRERA of Cabrera Cruise and Travel!

Our Featured Friend this week is Stephanie Cabrera.  I've known her for 30 years. If you are considering  taking a vacation, you should contact Stephanie.  Her knowledge of the industry is unparalleled! ~April 


I have been intrigued with traveling since I was a little girl! I remember
not being able to sleep in my bedroom back in Kansas City, the night
before a trip to California. I was only three or four years old but I
remember vividly the anticipation of the adventure ahead. We drove
all that way in a VW Bug with no air conditioning, but that didn’t put a
damper on all the excitement I felt! I was bitten by the travel bug from that day forward!
I went to Europe in high school with my French class and that just
furthered my interest in travel!
I started working as a travel agent at a brick and mortar agency back in
1985 and was able to travel extensively throughout the United States,
including Hawaii, Canada, and Mexico. I worked as a corporate and
leisure agent for 12 years before full time motherhood took over my
life!
Now that my children are in school full time and I finally have the
time to devote to a career, I’ve decided to start my own business as a
travel agent once again! I wondered when this idea first popped into
my head, if there was a need for travel agents any longer due to the
internet. After some extensive research, I believe there is! Booking a
trip for yourself online can be overwhelming and very time consuming!
There is so much information out there! And most importantly, why
would you want to risk your Honeymoon, or that dream vacation
you’ve saved and saved for, to an online booking agent? Let someone
handle your trip that has knowledge of what is a good value, a luxurious
resort or which rental car companies not to use! A good travel agent
will get to know you, what you like to do on vacation and exactly what
you are looking for in your trip! I also work through a large travel
consortium where I am able to obtain special deals and perks you can’t
find anywhere else! I also have access to online webinars and trainings
on many destinations to further my knowledge and keep me updated
on all things travel! I love to do research and find the best value for
what you are looking for! I LOVE my job! And, in most cases, there is
no fee for my services!
If you are looking to plan a once in a lifetime Honeymoon, anniversary
trip, or just a fun girls weekend away! Give me a call, let me take
the hassle out of the trip planning and just make it a fun experience!
