Hi Reader,
I just wanted to say thank you for being part of my travel-loving community. Whether you're here for planning tips, destination inspiration, or just dreaming about your first points redemption, I’m so glad we get to connect like this.
Okay, I’m rambling.
What I really wanted to share is one of my favorite trip planning tips - especially if you’ve been daydreaming about your next getaway but aren’t sure where to go.
Here it is: book your flights first.
If you’re flexible on destination, let the deal decide where you go. You’ll save so much money this way, and honestly, some of my most unforgettable trips have happened because I stumbled on a great fare and just said heck yes.
Once you’ve got the flights booked, everything else can fall into place. To help with that part, I’ve put together something I use for my own trips that I think will make your life a lot easier: my Customizable Trip Itinerary Template, and I’m sharing it with you for free.
Use it to organize your flights, stays, activities, bucket-list stops, and more. Whether you're planning a quick weekend getaway or a multi-week adventure, this template makes everything feel way more manageable. Say goodbye to stressing on finding your confirmation code in your email at the hotel check-in counter.
✨ Grab your free itinerary template HERE
(if you’ve already grabbed it in the past, here’s your reminder to put it to use and book that trip 😉)
You can download it, print it, or edit it in Google Drive - it’s designed to work with whatever kind of planner you are.
Here’s to smarter, smoother, and more affordable travel. Can’t wait to see where your next flight deal takes you.
Happy travels!
Michelle
