Frequently Asked Questions

  • Because great travel is about far more than booking a hotel.

    My clients hire me for recommendations they can trust, thoughtful itinerary design, and the confidence that comes from knowing every major decision has been carefully considered. Planning fees allow me to dedicate the time and attention required to create a personalized experience rather than a one-size-fits-all itinerary.

  • Hotels pay advisors a commission, which is already built into the rate whether you book through an advisor or on your own. In many cases, I'm able to book the same rate while adding valuable perks such as complimentary breakfast, hotel credits, upgrades, and VIP amenities.

  • Accommodations are one of the most important decisions you'll make when planning a trip and a big part of the value I provide.

    My Full Service Planning package is designed as a complete experience, combining planning fees with hotel partnerships that help support the work that goes into designing your trip. Because of that, accommodations are required to be booked through Away With Alae.

    This allows me to provide thoughtful recommendations, personalized planning, and ongoing support while keeping planning fees reasonable for clients.

  • Honestly? Many of my favorite clients love researching travel.

    My role isn't to take away the fun part—it's to help you make sense of the endless options. I'll help you decide what's actually worth your time, where to splurge, what to skip, and how to create a trip that feels balanced rather than overwhelming.

    Think of me as a trusted sounding board with strong opinions and a lot of experience.

  • Dining recommendations are included in all planning services. Restaurant reservation coordination is available for an additional fee and may be offered depending on the destination, trip budget, and level of support required.

  • It depends on the destination and type of trip, but six to eight months in advance is typically ideal. This allows for the best hotel availability, preferred room categories, and thoughtful planning without feeling rushed. For more complex itineraries, safaris, holiday travel, or group trips, planning a year in advance is often beneficial.

  • The best fit is less about a specific destination and more about how you like to travel.

    My clients typically value thoughtful recommendations, personalized service, and experiences that feel memorable rather than simply checking sights off a list. They appreciate beautiful hotels, great food, and a well-paced itinerary and they're looking for a trusted partner to help them make the most of their time away.

    If that sounds like you, we're probably a great fit.

  • While I don't have a strict minimum, my services are typically the best fit for travelers planning to invest in quality accommodations and experiences.

    Most Full Service Planning clients spend at least $10,000 on their trip (excluding flights), with many investing more depending on destination, length of travel, and travel style.

    If you're unsure whether your trip is a fit, I'm always happy to discuss your plans and point you in the right direction.
