Ever wondered what happens when your flight gets canceled at midnight in a foreign country? Or how some travelers magically get room upgrades and complimentary spa treatments? The answer might be simpler than you think.

Meet Amy McCracken, a seasoned travel advisor with Ruby's Travel who transformed her passion for planning adventures into a 15-year career helping others create unforgettable travel experiences. What started as friendly advice—"you should get paid for doing this"—has blossomed into a full-time commitment to crafting dream vacations for honeymooners, families, and corporate clients alike.

Amy dispels the common misconception that working with a travel advisor costs more than booking through impersonal online platforms. "A lot of people think travel advisors are going to be more expensive, and that's really not the case," she explains. The reality? Travel advisors like Amy provide round-the-clock support, insider connections for upgrades and special perks, and crucially, a real person to call when travel plans go sideways. As Amy pointedly asks, "Try doing that with Costco or Expedia—it's not going to work very well."

From Caribbean getaways and Mexican resorts to Italian adventures, Amy crafts experiences tailored to each client's needs while monitoring travel advisories to ensure safety remains a priority. Her expertise isn't just about finding the right destination; it's about enhancing your entire journey with unique experiences, room upgrades, complimentary meals, and spa treatments that online bookings simply can't match.
