Frequently Asked Questions

Planning a trip can be time-consuming, but with Destinations by Melanie, I handle the research for you—saving you valuable time while ensuring your itinerary is tailored to your preferences.


Plus, when you book through me, you gain access to exclusive perks offered by my trusted travel partners. Many 4- and 5-star hotels provide benefits such as:
✔️ VIP amenities
✔️ Hotel credits
✔️ Room upgrades
✔️ Complimentary breakfasts and more!


Best of all, you receive these added benefits at the same rate you would pay if you booked directly—without extra hassle.


Let me elevate your travel experience while you simply enjoy the journey!


When you book a hotel, resort, or cruise through a travel advisor, our trusted travel partners pay us a commission, allowing us to provide these services at no extra cost to you.


For custom trip planning, a fee is required to cover the time and expertise needed to research and design your itinerary. This allows us to curate activities and experiences that may not be commissionable but will better align with your travel preferences and needs—ensuring a truly tailored and stress-free vacation.


By working with Destinations by Melanie, you get the best of both worlds—commissioned bookings at no additional cost and expertly crafted itineraries designed with your dream vacation in mind!

✔️ Wildlife safaris & adventure tours
✔️ Cruises, including pre/post-trip planning
✔️ Romantic honeymoon & anniversary escapes

Payment terms vary depending on the hotel, cruise line, or tour operator you book with. Typically:

✔️ Hotels may require a credit card on file to hold the reservation, with some charging a deposit upfront.
✔️ Cruises almost always require a deposit, with the remaining balance due by a set date before departure.


Before finalizing your reservations, I will always provide clear payment terms and cancellation policies, ensuring you know exactly what to expect.


📩 Reach out if you have any questions about payment schedules for your trip!

📩 Contact me anytime if you need assistance!


Absolutely! Travel insurance is highly recommended as it provides valuable protection against unexpected events that could disrupt your trip—such as flight cancellations, medical emergencies, lost luggage, or other unforeseen circumstances.


While travel insurance is ultimately your choice, having coverage can offer peace of mind and financial protection, especially for international travel or high-value vacations.


I am happy to provide travel insurance quotes and help you find a plan that fits your needs. Reach out anytime to explore your options!
