Vacation Advice from Whata Deal Travel

Today’s speaker was Warren Gourdeau of Whata Deal Travel.  Travel is responsible for some of life’s most memorable moments, said the enthusiastic travel agent for more than 20 years of “meeting or beating the prices of most internet travel sites and advertisements.”  Specializing in all-inclusive resorts (his hands-down favorite Caribbean destination is Sandals, followed by Palace and Charisma … but there are dozens of such sites) and cruises, he gave some good travel advice including:

·      *  Allow yourself a minimum of 2 ½ - 3 hours for layover in between international flights

·      *  SLC is the best place to go through customs

·      *  Research the cost and weight of baggage when traveling internationally

·      *  A global entry pass makes life a whole lot easier for frequent international travelers

·      *  European rail trains provide an excellent vacation experience … but you can’t purchase before 90 days ahead

·      *  Passports needed for international travel must not have an expiration date within 6 months of your vacation plans.
