Frequently Asked Questions
At Carrie Fulton Travel, I often receive similar questions from clients who are excited to start planning their next adventure.
Here are answers to some of the most common questions about working with a professional travel advisor, the travel planning process, and how I help create seamless, personalized vacations.
Why hire a Travel Advisor?
A travel advisor saves you time, removes stress, and delivers a personalized travel experience you can't get by booking alone.
At Carrie Fulton Travel, I tailor each trip to your needs, offer expert recommendations, and handle every detail — so you can simply relax and enjoy your dream vacation.
I love planning vacations too. Can I join in the planning?
Of course! Feel free to decide how involved you'd like to be—I'm here to support you. Whether it's handling tasks you don't enjoy, such as making supplier calls, monitoring prices, or creating your personalized itinerary, I've got it covered.
Why choose me?
With expert training and a passion for personalized travel planning, I create seamless, unforgettable vacations tailored just for you.
I take care of the logistics, giving you the freedom to enjoy every meaningful moment of your journey.
Will I save money booking with you?
I always work to get you the best pricing. That starts from the time I begin researching your trip searching for the best value for your budget to watching for better rates and/or promotions so you don’t have to.
How much do my services cost?
In most cases, my services are included in the cost of your trip! I am paid by the travel supplier after you travel, and I work hard to support you from our first conversation to the day you return home.
​
When you book directly with a supplier — whether it’s a theme park, cruise, or all-inclusive resort — the cost of a travel advisor is already built into the price.
If you don't use a travel professional, the supplier simply keeps that money.
By working with me, you gain a personal advocate at no extra cost — and you support a small business.
​
Over 97% of my clients never pay a separate planning fee. In rare cases where a fee applies, I will clearly discuss it with you during the quote process.
What travel do I book?
I can plan trips to almost any destination or property around the world — from all-inclusive resorts and cruises to theme parks and luxury hotels.

Can I book air travel?
I recommend booking flights directly with the airline to give you greater control over your flight schedules and access to more flexible change policies and air credits.
This approach ensures you have the best options available if you need to adjust your travel plans.
