Planning a cruise should feel straightforward, not overwhelming.
If you already know Norwegian Cruise Line® is a good fit for how you like to travel, this is where the process becomes clearer and more personal. I help you navigate ships, cabins, itineraries, and timing so your cruise fits how you actually travel, not just what happens to be available.
This page explains how cruise planning works with me, what to expect, and whether we are a good fit to plan your trip together.
This service is designed for travelers who:
If you enjoy researching every detail yourself or are only looking for the lowest possible price, booking directly through the cruise line may be a better option. My role is to help travelers who want clarity, confidence, and support throughout the planning process.
Cruise planning is more than picking dates and clicking "book."
When you work with me, I help you:
You receive guidance based on experience and context, not scripts or sales quotas.
"The way you handled the entire experience left me feeling confident, heard, and appreciated."

"This was truly a once-in-a-lifetime event, and you lived up to your promise to take care of everything related to the trips!"

You share your dates, destinations, priorities, and travel style through a short form or a brief call.
I review ships, cabins, itineraries, and pricing, then walk you through the options that best fit your needs.
Once booked, I remain your point of contact for questions, changes, and pre-departure planning, all the way through embarkation and beyond.
Thoughtful cruise planning takes time and professional expertise. To ensure I can provide personalized, well-researched recommendations, I charge a planning fee.

This structure allows me to focus on travelers who want the right cruise, not just a quick transaction.
Norwegian Cruise Line® offers flexibility that appeals to many travelers, but that flexibility also means more decisions that actually matter.
My role is to help you understand those choices, avoid common missteps, and book with confidence. I don't push specific sailings or upsells. I help you select what makes sense for your trip.
You can expect clear recommendations, straightforward communication, and support throughout the process.

The planning fee covers personalized research, itinerary and ship comparison, cabin guidance, booking support, and ongoing assistance before and after you sail. It ensures my time is focused on travelers who want thoughtful planning.
That's fine. Many travelers start with a conversation or form submission to explore options. If it turns out you're not ready, we'll say so openly.
Yes. I regularly assist with air, pre- or post-cruise hotels, transfers, and group bookings when those elements are part of the trip.
