AMY ACCOLA

I began my career in the travel industry with going to travel school, followed directly by working at a small agency. 26 years later I still love it. I have worked mostly with in-house VIP corporate travel as well as several onsite accounts such as Yahoo, Plantronics and Gilead. I also have experience in leisure, group, and entertainment travel. I have traveled to London, Paris, all over Spain, China, Taiwan, Mexico, the Bahamas, Jamaica, Aruba, Alaska, NYC, Boston often, and many other cities across the U.S.

I couldn’t keep my travel tip to just one so here are a few things I would recommend. The best travel tip I have is to buy travel insurance, I have heard of many things that have gone wrong and someone has not purchased travel insurance.  I buy it for myself every time I travel, and almost needed it when I had an allergic reaction to something in Taiwan. A friend of mine bumped her head on our tour bus, got a concussion and had to go to the hospital. Thankfully she had purchased travel insurance and it was covered.  My second tip, DON’T OVERPACK, I had to lug 100lbs of luggage through three countries on planes, trains and taxis by myself. I almost threw my suitcase on the train tracks in Paris!  I kept trying to leave old things behind and the hotel kept giving them back to me.  Lastly, my third tip, try not to worry about things when they go wrong because they will, and you can’t let it ruin your trip. Call your travel agent and we can get you taken care of and ease your mind.
