Ringing in the New Year

2010. Never in my life, have I heard people this excited about the New Year. I read in the paper this morning a striking headline. "Saying Goodbye to a Decade of Fear"

(Funny, but I actually still subscribe to a paper. I am afraid I might miss the "local" news I guess. And part of me is still a little nostalgic about having a newspaper.)

Back to this new year thing. I also have noticed the feeling of hope that comes with 2010. You see, the last few years, we all have been bombarded with the aftermath of 9/11 and the countless crisis that crop up on national and local news. I am proclaiming the next 10 years as the "Decade of Fun"! Let's move on from the "fear" and forget all the negative news stories the dominate our landscape. Let's realize that the economy is much better than before and we can all drop a little change on something fun. Take a night on the town. Buy a ridiculously expensive meal at an upscale restaurant. Get that plasma television you always wanted. Or better for us, take that long awaited tropical vacation you have been dreaming about. Life should be fun and we intend to make the next decade just that. FUN!

Can you think of a better way to get away from it all? The Caribbean is 80 degrees or so this time of year. You wouldn't need to worry about work. Or phones. Leave the laptop at home or lock it in the hotel safe. Leave the tv unplugged. Roast yourself in tropical sunshine. Dive into the crystal clear waters. Stare aimlessly at the tropical waves. Eat till you can't eat any more. Drink a little more than you should. Have some fun! You would have a hard time finding a hotel in your own hometown for the prices that all inclusive resorts are offering this coming year. AND the food and drinks are included! We keep saying it, but we have to. This is YOUR best opportunity to get a deal on an all inclusive vacation.

Everyone I know is looking forward to the New Year. This new year brings new attitudes and new fun. We can put 2009 away for good and ring in the next decade in a better place :)
The place for me is the Caribbean. I will be there every month for the next year. This is my New Year's resolution. It's time for me to have some more good times.

Til next time,
Tom

2010 The Year of the All Inclusive Travel Deal

Much has been written about the state of the economy and its effect on travel. One thing I know is that people are still traveling. I am. And a lot of you are. I know, I know. The economy is still in the tank and everyone is holding on to their cash like it's the last time they'll ever see any. Here's the good news! For those of you who have a little money to burn, this is the best time of your life for a deal on luxury resorts in the Caribbean and Mexico.

To give you the real scoop, our supplier has been inundated with so many promotions and "discount" offers that they can't keep up with the loading of the rates in their online systems. You know what that means? Great deals are out there to be had. I just looked up some rates for a potential client yesterday and they could get a full week at an all inclusive resort in the Cancun/Mayan Riviera for $600/person with airfare INCLUDED! This wasn't some cheap charter flight on WHO KNOW'S Airlines. This was on Delta or US Air from Hartford, Connecticut. 7 nights, 8 days of all inclusive meals, drinks, accommodations, daily activities, nightly entertainment and tips!!! They could pay a little more and upgrade to a more luxurious hotel. You know why? Cause they are ALL on sale.

Hoteliers in Jamaica tell me they are selling more rooms this year than last, but the nightly rates are a lot less. That translates into a great deal for YOU. Don't miss out on these great rates for the last part of 2009 and early 2010. When the resorts are consistently full, then the nightly rates will go back up. NOW is the time!

Cash in your chips and get a great deal. Hold them and you will be guaranteed to spend more when the deals disappear. This is my tip for you. 2010 is the Year of the Travel Deal.

Thank those that go above and beyond

I have been out of the office taking a break and haven't had time to really do the blog thing. I received an email that sparked my interest and thought it would be really appropriate to post it here. The thing that got me is that we rarely take the time to thank those that have done something good for us. Whether it is a server at a restaurant or a customer service person at Dell, it still means so much to the world that we all recognize the efforts of others. It seems that a lot of people just aren't very complimentary anymore. I always have good intentions when someone goes above and beyond but I never seem to take the 5 minutes required to call a supervisor or to write a letter or email. Here is an example of how we should all be:

Dear Mr. Tom:

My name is Madeline S... and I recently purchased an all inclusive vacation package to Jamaica for me and my family. This was the first time I had ever purchased a vacation package online and the first time I ever used your agency. I was very nervous and anxious about doing so, since there are so many horrible stories you hear in the news about fraudulent companies stealing from innocent consumers especially on the internet.

My travel agent for this trip is Ms. Kelly Reid. I was compelled to write you and tell you how pleased I am not only with your company's service but more so with the excellent, expedient and committed work of Ms. Reid. Throughout my transactions online with booking this trip, I had questions and concerns, and emailed Ms. Reid with them. She always responded to all my emails in an expedient manner and always provided me with all the answers I needed to my questions and concerns.

I would like to take this opportunity to personally say what a wonderful employee she is and how proud you, as her Supervisor, and allinclusiveoutlet.com as a company to have Ms. Kelly Reid represent your company.

Thank you for the time you have afforded me in reading my message and I hope to be able to use your services again in the future. Remember, word of mouth is the best advertisement a company could get! I will be spreading the good word about your company.

Thank you.

Sincerely,


Ms. Madeline C S...

I am sure this made Kelly feel great and is motivation for her to continue helping others. If you only ever hear from the negative people in this world, it really does begin to bring every one down. I had a really trying dining experience the other night, but we did not complain. I have become much more patient and understanding than before. I really didn't see the point in loading more negativity onto people who were obviously short staffed and overwhelmed. Do you know the result? The owner noticed we had been waiting forever and she bought us a round of drinks on the house. Nice touch. Well, the people next to me were complaining like mad and you guessed it. They did not receive anything but continued waiting. I was very courteous with the owner and told her I understood that they were doing the best they could do with the situation. Miraculously, our food showed up before the others :) And we will definitely go back now.

You know what? I bet that Kelly is willing to go the extra mile for Madeline if anything ever pops up on a future vacation. She will remember the kind email and know that this client is forever VIP. If you treat others well, then others will treat you well. Hmmm? Seems like a phrase I remember. It really is simple, but most of us don't do it. We are too worried about being inconvenienced or not getting our "fair share". Or we have better things to do.

Be kind to others. Thank those that do nice things for you. Hold a door open for the next person. Say "excuse me" when necessary. Apologize when you have inconvenienced others. Do something nice for those that go "above and beyond". Do these things and I guarantee your life will be easier. And BETTER.

Til Next Time,
Tom
