Happy Tuesday, friends!
Today, I have MEAL PLANNING TUESDAY plus a little look back at THE FIRST AND LAST DAYS OF SCHOOL along with our weekly TRAVEL TUESDAY post!
I was going through our DMs on our Mix and Match Travel Agency Instagram and Facebook accounts last week and kept seeing several of the same questions asked by so many…so, I thought I’d just share them here along with my answers.
Curious what’s trending in my travel agency’s DMs?
Here you go… 🙂
We actually do not charge any outside fees. I know a lot of travel agencies do, but that’s something we do not do. I’ve worked in sales my entire adult life (I sold insurance for 15ish years), and as a sales person, you work hard, you offer your best product, you answer a lot of questions, educate, inform, and hope to connect with the potential customer to eventually close the sale. I think the role of selling travel should be the same. We’ll work hard and hopefully you will want to do business with us, but at the end of the day, I don’t want to accept a fee from you just for the opportunity to quote your business. I want us to earn your business (and not just for this trip but for many more to come). If you are interested in traveling, we would love the opportunity to quote your business and hopefully, help you get to that amazing destination fee-free.
We offer our services for all cruises (river and ocean cruises!), Walt Disney World and Disneyland, Universal Studios, Hawaii, Mexico, Canada, the Caribbean, and then all other international destinations (from Asia to Australia, Africa, Europe, Antarctica, South America…everywhere!).
Three nights is the minimum for all of our vacations (so unfortunately, we wouldn’t be able to help you with a one or two night vacation), but that can always be in combination with other things too (so, for example, we could book your seven night cruise and then add one or two nights of pre/post).
So many people want to go to Disney but with its everchanging systems, details, app…it’s more complicated to go to Walt Disney World than ever before. That’s why you start with us 🙂 . Again, for no additional fees, we can help with everything from resort stay to passes, VIP tours, ground transportation to and from the airport, adding additional days to Universal, stroller rental, dining, helping make sure you get on the rides you’re most excited about AND SO MUCH MORE! The happiest place on Earth is maybe the most complicated place on Earth, but we will teach you how to use the tech, make reservations for you to those delicious dining spots and create the most magical (and easiest for you!) trip to Disney so you don’t have to stress over any of Mickey’s little details.
That varies by destination, but if you already have a trip in mind, don’t hesitate to reach out now because if it’s too far away for us to actually start quoting and booking, we can put you on our calendar and reach out when the time arrives. Cruises book much earlier than most land destinations, so often, we can help with those right away. Contact us with the details, and we can let you know the optimal time to book and either start the process right away or reach back out to you when the time is right.
Absolutely! We love using miles for our flights too!
And that’s a little Tuesday look into some of the most asked questions in my DMs 🙂 . You can CONTACT US HERE for more information on your next destination!
Don’t forget, I also have MEAL PLANNING TUESDAY plus a little look back at THE FIRST AND LAST DAYS OF SCHOOL today too!
Happy Tuesday, friends! I’ll see you tomorrow! xx

I always think about the recent disruption to flights, air traffic control turmoil, turbulence, the plane crashes recently. It’s not really a travel agency question, but does it concern you for your own safety/the safety of your family? I’ve never thought about airline safety like I’m thinking about it now. I’m not in fear, but I’m also not turning a blind eye. Would be interested in your thoughts.
Mix and Match Mama says
No, it doesn’t. I have personally never been one to worry/be anxious when flying (though I know this is common for so many!). I still find it my preferred form of transportation.
Susan Jeffries says
I am contacting you today about a possible Europe trip for 2026! Thanks!
Mix and Match Mama says
We would LOVE to help you!!
Marci N says
These are great tips!
With the Shull Six in Nantucket, we’d love to see pictures!
Mix and Match Mama says
As soon as we get there, I promise you a lot! 🙂

I can attest that your travel agency was a dream to work with when we booked our second disney trip with you a few months ago. Jane & Erika were both incredibly kind, knowledgable and a dream to work with. We had the BEST time without any worry and that is HUGE considering we went over Christmas break. Thank you! Can’t wait to work again with the team.
Mix and Match Mama says
Awwwww! Thank YOU for sharing this and for allowing us to be a part of your vacation. We are so very grateful!
Kate says
How much planning do you help
With. Is it getting us there or can you help with itinerary, excursions, etc .I have some international destinations on my list but feel very overwhelmed. Thanks!
Mix and Match Mama says
We help with as much or as little as you need. Some clients would like us to handle every little detail while others just want us to build out the “framework”. Excursions and itineraries are very very common for us to do for you. We do not want you to be overwhelmed!
Emily says
As a Universal Orlando planner, do they give you any insight of when crowds will start to die down for the new park? Trying to strategize when we should consider going.
Do you do combo California Disney and Universal trips too? I think I asked that before you started offering Universial Orlando so not sure if that has changed. Thanks!
Mix and Match Mama says
They do, and we can certainly help you with combo trips in California too!
