Where are you going this month?

What did you book for future?

Travel agents - what did you book for your clients? (I'll post last months in the next day or so since we didn't have a June thread).

Headed to Maine at the end of the month. It's hard this week seeing most of my colleagues out on vacation, but it will be worth it when we are gone.

Also spending two nights at Fernweh in New Braunfels the first weekend of Aug. to float the river. These are relatively new cabins (much nicer looking than the ones our friends suggested), and I'm curious to see how they are. Price was a little higher, but not much.

Had already booked condos in Banff for the week of Christmas and finally pulled the trigger on plane tickets a couple of weeks ago. It's crazy how much more expensive plane tickets to YYC are now than a couple of years ago. This is a favorite trip of mine and my son's and we are excited to share it with my BF and his boys.

Short trip to Milwaukee for us this month I've never been, and recommendations for things to do/see in Milwaukee? Won't have a vehicle and only there for 3 nights.

I've booked some awesome vacations for clients:
Sandals Royal Bahamian Honeymoon
Birthday group trip to Cancun!
Hermitage Bay Honeymoon in Antigua
and.. Booked some amazing itineraries for London, Paris and Italy for next year for a few clients.

Happy Travels in July to all!

Booked: Flights to Mazatlan. It will be my first time to visit there (late Oct)

Traveling: Week to Panama City Beach for softball tournament. Will be my first time going since a junior in college.

Sidenote - I have a 30 room wedding in Cancun on Saturday (7/6). Hoping this weather doesn't impact them! As well as a client who goes to Dominican Republic tomorrow.

Might want to ask them how they fared w the storm. Grenada took a direct hit and it sounds like it was a very very very bad landfall.

When did TSA start doing facial recognition? Saw the sign that it's optional but most I saw were doing it.

Touched base with our travel agent & she has other clients there currently & said things are supposed to be back to normal as soon as tomorrow. Only concern was that they were on their own to try to leave if they so wanted, that the resort was only helping them to hunker down on property & for their safety. We have purchased travel insurance in case another storm develops closer to our dates on the last weekend of the month.

When is the potential strike supposed to happen? Odds you think it will happen as we are flying AA to Grenada at the end of the month? Thanks.

Looks like the union wants to strike and the government isn't letting them yet.
There are still negotiations continuing this week.

Might start seeing more "random" sick call outs.

Lot of driving day trips from my home base in College Station to Houston and DFW for work. Flying down to McAllen for work next week. That has the potential to be rocky given the weather predictions.

So, no fun trips. I look forward to posting in August, though.

Headed to London this evening. My wife spends the summers in Australia with family. I go every other year. On the off years I run over to Europe to get out of town. Weather in London this weekend is highs in the 60s and lows in the 50s. Looking forward to that for a few days.
