Today we’d like to introduce you to Aimee LeBlanc.
Hi, Aimee; thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstory.
I have always had a passion for travel, so when I had the experience of using a travel agency for the first time, I knew I needed to look into it further. Having every detail taken care of, including excursions and transfers, made things seamless. All I had to do was pack and be on time at the airport. When I returned, I researched the pricing and saw that it was the same as what I would have paid for on my own. That’s when I decided to pursue the educational requirements to start my agency. That was 6 years ago, and I still love helping my customers create lifelong memories.
Can you tell us about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned? Looking back, has it been easy or smooth?
There are always hurdles in life, and Covid was one that I didn’t know if my agency would recover from. I’m very grateful for all my regular customers who stuck with me and were more than ready to book a trip once they could. It was crazy to go from almost closing to having the best year.
We’ve been impressed with Castaway Travel, but for folks who might need to be more familiar with it, what can you share about what you do and what sets you apart?
Travel agency specializing in mid-level- luxury travel packages, cruises, all-inclusive, weddings, family reunions, bachelor and bachelorette parties, business trips, and more. We are very hands-on and want to deliver the vacation you dream of. Also, when something goes wrong, we’re here to help get everything back on track. I’m proud we’re part of many special events, and the positive community we’ve created that uses our services. We are developing our Wellness Retreats with an expected launch trip in 2025.
Is there anything else you’d like to share with our readers?
Many people need to realize that travel agencies get wholesale rates, so you pay the same price whether you get the added value of having your advisor look out for your best interests or not.
