What a Travel Advisor's Day Actually Looks Like

What does a "typical day" even look like for someone who plans vacations for a living? Spoiler: there isn't one.

This is Minisode 1 of 3, pulled from Episode 2.8 of the Goofy Getaways Podcast, "So You Want to Be a Travel Advisor." Amy Blades sits down with three of our own Travel Advisors — Amanda Worsley, Noddea Skidmore, and Aaron Guest — and asks them to walk through what an actual workday looks like, start to finish.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why three advisors with the same job can have three completely different daily schedules — from a 5:30 a.m. promotion check to client calls that don't start until 10 p.m.
• What the "planning and preparation" phase of a trip really involves, beyond picking a resort
• Why the initial consultation call is the part advisors take the most seriously, and why some insist on it
• The moment each advisor realized loving Disney and running a Disney-focused business are two very different things
