Black Friday & Cyber Monday 2025

Get Ready: I’m Watching All the Black Friday Travel Deals For You!

As your travel advisor, this is one of my favorite times of the year—Black Friday travel deal season! Airlines, resorts, cruise lines, and tour companies are getting ready to drop some of their biggest promotions of the year, and I’m already watching the ads, updates, and early releases so you don’t have to.

If you’ve been dreaming about a vacation—whether it’s a quick weekend escape, a family getaway, or a bucket-list adventure—Black Friday is one of the BEST times to lock in serious savings. And the best part? I’ll handle all the searching, comparing, and planning for you.

Why This Matters for You

Black Friday travel deals usually move fast and sell out even faster. My job is to:

  • Track the early teasers and official promotions
  • Compare offers to make sure they’re real deals
  • Match you with the best options based on your travel style
  • Hold or book offers as soon as they drop
  • Make the whole process stress-free

So while the travel world is buzzing with sales, you can relax—I’m already on it.

Want First Access?

If you know you want to travel in 2026, now is the perfect time to get on my Black Friday interest list.
Tell me:

  • Your desired destination(s)
  • Your preferred travel dates or seasons
  • Your budget
  • Your travel style (solo, couples, family, adventure, luxury, etc.)

I’ll be able to grab deals the moment they go live.

Let’s Get Your 2026 Trip Ready – Some things to keep in mind:

  • I offer complimentary planning to any destination – I am paid by them and you pay the same if you book yourself or through me (Maybe less because I am great at finding deals)
  • I currently have incredible onboard credit offers and resort credits for several cruise lines and destinations – Just ask!
  • I travel quite often and am very familiar with the destinations I sell. If I have not been there personally, I will research the destination thoroughly. I approach it as if the trip is for my own family. This ensures I provide you with the best and most complete experience.

Black Friday is almost here, and I’m excited to help you plan something unforgettable. Stay tuned—I’ll be sharing highlights as soon as they’re announced.

Ready to get on the list or start planning? Just send me a message!

Day 5 of the 12 days of the Disney Treasure – Bars & Lounges

Disney cruises are often synonymous with family fun, but when it comes to the Disney Treasure, adults are in for a treat of their own. The bars and lounges aboard this magical ship aren’t just places to grab a drink—they are immersive experiences that transport you to different worlds, each with its own charm, character, and hidden surprises. Whether you’re sipping on a cocktail or enjoying a quiet moment in a cozy nook, these spots are designed to ignite your imagination and elevate your vacation. Let me take you through my favorite hangouts aboard the Disney Treasure, where creativity and craftsmanship collide.

The Periscope Pub – I’ll never forget the first time I walked into The Periscope Pub. The walls, adorned with colorful nautical artifacts, immediately set the stage for an adventure. I was so excited when I recognized some familiar items. This seems like a pub that the captains from 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea would frequent. It was almost like a scavenger hunt! See if you can find the giant squid! As I sipped my drink, I got completely lost in the ceiling of the pub. It is a “window” into the sea above you. I saw sharks, fish, and even a ship.

They do serve some really great pub food here as well. It is the perfect stop later at night when your belly remembers it is on cruise time and might need to nosh again!

Skipper Society – Skipper Society felt like stepping onto the Jungle Cruise (without the piranhas & monkeys). This lively, yet refined, lounge immerses you in an exotic, jungle-inspired atmosphere, complete with lush greenery, whimsical details, and a dash of playful mischief. As you settle in with a cocktail in hand, you’re transported to a world where storytelling and adventure reign supreme. The drink menu is just as enchanting, featuring vibrant concoctions that capture the essence of the jungle—bold, refreshing, and bursting with flavor.

Haunted Mansion Parlor – The Haunted Mansion Parlor was the most immersive and you truly feel like you are in the Mansion. Check out my full review here.

Scat Cat Lounge – “The moment I walked into Scat Cat Lounge, I was instantly swept into the rhythm of the music. The jazz band played classic tunes, and I couldn’t resist tapping my feet along to the beat. The energy was infectious, and the ‘Turkish Tea experience’ cocktail added just the right touch of New Orleans charm to the experience.”

The Rose – The Rose was an experience in itself. The plush velvet chairs, the soft lighting, and the refined atmosphere made me feel like I was in a hidden gem. I savored every sip of my cocktail which was as delicate and exquisite as the surroundings. It was the perfect spot for a sophisticated evening of relaxation.

Jade Cricket Cafe – After a busy day of exploring, I found myself drawn to the peaceful charm of the Jade Cricket Café. The delicate flavors of the tea cocktails were the perfect complement to the calm, serene atmosphere. It was a welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of the ship. For you Mulan fans, Crickee makes a special appearance!

Heihei Café – Heihei Café was the spot I kept coming back to for its fun, carefree vibe. With a Moana-inspired drink in hand, I could feel the island breeze (even though I was indoors!). The cocktails were fruity and refreshing—perfect for a midday pick-me-up as I basked in the tropical atmosphere.

The Disney Treasure is a paradise for adults seeking imaginative experiences, and the bars and lounges aboard this stunning ship embody that magic. From the whimsical charm of Skipper Society to the elegant serenity of The Rose, there’s a spot to suit every mood, every occasion, and every drink preference. Each venue brings something unique to the table—and trust me, I loved every moment spent in each one. So, if you’re planning your next Disney cruise, make sure to leave time to explore these exceptional spaces. After all, where else can you toast to adventure, sophistication, and pure magic—all in one sip?

Now, let’s plan your next “Treasure” of a vacation. It is the perfect time with all the Disney Cruise Line offers and my additional offers. Visit my new on-board credit offer and giveaway page for more information.

Day 3 of the 12 Days of the Disney Treasure – Kid’s Clubs

The emotional magic of Disney Treasure’s Kid’s Clubs. Let’s talk about that moment. The magical moment when you step into their favorite movies and their dreams. It all starts by jumping into the incredibly fun twisty tube slide – because why wouldn’t you take a slide into your kid’s club?! They make sure hands are properly sanitized and check each child in. It’s a very secure system! From there, the possibilities are endless!

When I first walked in, the “Tank Gang” from Nemo was initiating all the new members into tank hood. They were dressed as fish and had the kids “swimming through the ring of fire.” It was so sweet. These kids are not worried about where Mom and Dad are, they are living it up in an independent, safe, incredibly fun space. They are in adventure mode and you are free to enjoy some guilt-free time enjoying the more adult areas of the ship.

It’s A Small World Nursery – (6 months – 3 years) This is a space for the smallest Mouseketeers and it does require reservations to attend.

This whimsical space is perfectly themed and decorated to entertain your little ones. There is a peaceful and quiet nap space if someone needs to rest their head while they are there. There is also a great little playroom. Additional rates do apply to this club and the cast members are highly trained to work with this age group. You make reservations through the app and if you need to cancel, do so more than 4 hours in advance to avoid cancellation fees.

Oceaneer Club – (3-10 years) Kids can train to be a superhero at the Marvel Super Hero Academy. There, they can also meet friends like Black Panther, Captain America, and more.

In Fairytale Hall, kiddos can spend time with Belle in her Library, create artwork in Rapunzel’s Art Studio, and take part in fun winter activities in Ana & Elsa’s Summerhaus.

In Minnie & Mickey’s Captain’s Deck, kiddos can jump, climb, and crawl through all sorts of fun climbing structures. It is a great place to get their wiggles out!

In the Imagineering Lab, kids can sketch, draw, paint, and create magic in this special art studio. Maybe you have a future imagineer on your hands! It seems that the favorite activity in this area is the virtual roller coaster. Kiddos can create and ride their own creation. It is pretty incredible!

Star Wars Cargo Bay – Mouseketeers will feel like they just stepped off the Millenium Falcon. There are so many fun areas to explore. The best part is all the different creatures in the cargo bay. The Porg is my favorite! Be sure to turn the water wheel over by the big tank for a surprise!

Edge – (11-14 years) The Edge is a great spot for the tweens and young tweens get to kick back and enjoy some “them” time. It has a perfect little hideaway spot in the back of deck 5. Once in, kids have an opportunity to post their name and some fun facts on a board along with their counselors. They play ice breakers so even the shyest kiddos get to know one another.

There is a soda bar, arts and crafts tables, game tables, video game consoles/TV’s and a great space for them to do all the counselor-led activities.

Vibe – (14-17 years) The Vibe is up on deck next to the Hero Zone. There are comfy areas to relax and hang out. Big screens and video games are there to enjoy all day. There is a bar that serves soda, smoothies, milkshakes, coffee and more. There are also table games and board games. Foosball at sea!

The Hideaway – (18 – 20 years) This spot, new to the Wish and Treasure, gives those young adults a great space to hang in when they are not quite old enough for the adult lounges but too cool for kids clubs. It has a dance floor and DJ booth and they have some great parties! Most of all, it is a space for that age group to find others and make new friendships.

These clubs are a paradise for the younger sailors. When you are ready to plan your families vacation and make memories that you will talk about for a lifetime, let me know. See ya real soon!

Disney Treasure Preinaugural Sailing

I have been blessed with the incredible privilege of being invited to sail on the preinaugural sailing of the Disney Treasure. The Disney Treasure, sister ship to the Disney Wish, is setting sail on its inaugural sailing on December 21, 2024. My Earmarked agency has been invited to sail on the preinaugural sailing along with other top agencies and media which sails on December 12, 2024.

I am so excited, I really cannot wait. Not only because I am a Disney Cruise fanatic myself, but because sailing this early will allow me to learn all that I can about this ship and its itineraries so I can best serve you! My guests!

We set sail in less than 30 days. In the meantime, I will be sharing a few videos about planning and preparing for a Disney Cruise. Videos will include things to take care of as you countdown to your cruise, special things to pack for cruising and specifically Disney cruises, special events to prepare for on the sailing, and the Disney Navigator App. Be sure to look out for those to help you when it is your time to cruise.

As I prepare to sail, I want to know what you want to learn while I am onboard. What do you want to see? what do you want to learn about? What information can I find out to share with you? Email me or contact me through any of my social media platforms and let me know. I plan on taking all of the pictures and sharing whatever I can but if there is something special, let me know!

Here are a few incredible new venues that will be exclusive to the Disney Treasure-

If you are interested in pricing out a Disney Treasure Cruise or a cruise on any of the other Disney ships, reach out today. My advice and planning is complimentary and you get all my knowledge and expertise. Pricing will always be the same as it would be with Disney but I can keep track of the special dates for you and secure all the reservations and port adventures you are interested in. Plus, don’t forget about our signature Minnie Box with each reservation.
