When you’re looking to start planning your post-wedding honeymoon, you may want to head on over to a travel agent and receive a professional’s help with putting together the trip of your dream. But before you pick a destination, and even a date to head there, there may be some important things you want to talk about and even know about ahead of time.
So here are 5 important questions to ask your travel agent before you book your honeymoon and purchase your plane tickets.
1. What Travel Deals are Going On?
Destinations and resorts have travel deals going on throughout the year. Ask your agent about any packages that are on-sale. You may be able to head somewhere more exotic and expensive when there’s a sale or a deal going on.
2. When’s the Best Time to Go?
You may be in a rush to jet off right after your wedding, but some destinations are more enjoyable during different times of the year. Ask your agent when the destination isn’t too crowded and the weather isn’t too bad.
3. What’s the Cancelation Policy?
Be sure to look into what the cancelation policy is before you book your honeymoon. See if you can add on trip insurance in case there’s a reason you need to reschedule or cancel the trip all together.
4. Is There Anything I Should Know About this Place?
Ask your travel agent to fill you in on anything important you should know about the place. Perhaps it’s information on whether it’s easy or hard to get around or if it’s a spot that you need to know the native language in order to be able to communicate.
5. Where Have Other Couples Gone and Loved?
If you’re unsure of where to go for your honeymoon, ask the expert. See if they can suggest other locations that couples went to in the past and enjoyed.
