Technology has made booking airline flights and hotels so easy that the idea of contacting a travel advisor to make these arrangements is not always top of mind. But what if you planned a vacation to Italy and wanted to customize the trip entirely to your interests? From hotel and cuisine to hiking and nightlife, the need for insight and advice from experienced people who know the country, the culture, and the people suddenly becomes a bit more viable. Enter the "travel advisor." Oddly enough, the same technology that nearly made travel advisors an extinct species has also become the same reason why enlisting their services for today's "customized-just-for-me" traveler has become necessary, and just plain smart. Kimberly Wilson Wetty, Co-Owner & Co-President of Valerie Wilson Travel recently went One-On-One with ExpertFlye r to explain why working with a travel advisor can save money while creating a truly customized travel experience. Read this here.
Valerie Wilson Travel is a second-generation family business that was started in 1981. Now, 38 years later, Wilson Wetty, along with her mother and sister, co-own the business, which has since expanded to locations across the country, including its headquarters in Manhattan. "We've been around long enough to remember a time when all travel arrangements went through an agent or advisor," Wilson Wetty explains. "Today, there is a misconception that we don't even exist as an industry, but the reality is our knowledge and services are needed now more than ever."

Knowledge and expertise do not just apply to finding local hot spots, trendy restaurants, and unique adventures. Travel advisors can help clients navigate through a host of travel issues, including cancelled flights and travel delays. A single phone call to a trusted travel advisor can help turn a potential travel disaster into a minor inconvenience. ExpertFlyer recently published The Traveler's Backup Plan: A Guidebook for Navigating Through the Anxiety of Delayed and Cancelled Airline Flights, which delves into how to handle this common stressor while traveling.
While advancements in technology initially seemed to threaten travel advisors' existence, it has helped re-fuel this service industry. "People want information immediately and technology has allowed them to obtain it without any assistance," Wilson Wetty said. "Travel advisors are embracing the technology, including artificial intelligence (AI), and combining it with real-world knowledge and experience to give travelers a formula for creating their ideal vacation. Travel advisors offer a great value proposition and travelers are rediscovering that value." Read all the related news.
"For anyone looking to coordinate a customized travel adventure that caters to their specific interests, a travel advisor is an inside resource with experience who can be worth their weight in gold," explains Chris Lopinto, president of ExertFlyer.com. "They can be a lifeline when things don't go according to plan, such as weather delays and cancellations at the airport. Working with an advisor often results in cost-savings and upgrades otherwise not possible on your own."
