So, you’ve planned your trip and you’re ready to go. After hours and hours of scrolling and combing the internet to find the best prices, the best deals, the right dates, the perfect flight, the best room, the most fun and affordable activities, it’s finally time to enjoy the fruits of your labor. And then your hotel room gets cancelled for overbooking. It’s the middle of the night the day before your trip. What now? Well, it looks like you’ve got to go back to work at the last minute to save your trip. The panic and stress overtake you. You’ll be up all night trying to figure this out. But if you’d had a travel advisor like Lindsay Douglas, you wouldn’t lose a minute of sleep over this.
Lindsay is a travel advisor with Hi Ho Vacations, a travel planning business designed to provide concierge service for your every travel need, regardless of budget. While she specializes in Disney trips, she can and will plan any trip, anywhere, anytime. She is at your service.
“I am here for you,” she said. “I have a wanderlust passion for travel and helping others.”
But this isn’t where she started. With a degree in Marketing, Lindsay started as an event planner until 2008. Then, due to an economy shift, she switched to nursing until COVID occurred in 2020. That was when she found a way to continue helping others while working from home. She found Hi Ho Vacations after using them to plan her own trip.
In case you thought hiring a travel planner was outside of your budget and doing all the work yourself would save money, you’ll be happily surprised to find out that this is not the case.
“My services are completely free,” Lindsay said.
This is because every vendor has a 10% commission built into their prices. If you book directly with the hotel, the hotel keeps the fee. If you book with an online booking service, they keep the fee. If you book with Lindsay, she gets the fee. No matter how you do it, you will pay that fee. But when you use a travel agent, you’re supporting a small business.
And the added benefit is that you get concierge level service. Lindsay does all the work. She puts together a package based on your needs, interests and budget.
“I will curate that perfect trip to meet your needs and it doesn’t have to be high end,” she said.
Just ask Brooke Wellstead, who is a client.
“Planning a Disney trip can feel overwhelming, but lindsay makes it seamless!She knows the parks inside and out and has an incredible gift for organizing every detail so families can focus on what matters most, making those magical memories together! What really sets her apart is how much she genuinely cares about the families she works with. She doesn’t just plan a trip, she creates an experience tailored for your family specifically so that you can focus on making memories instead of worrying about logistics. Her passion for what she does shines through in everything she plans! She’s thoughtful, incredibly knowledgeable, and the kind of person you trust completely with something as special as a disney vacation.
With any online booking service, it is buyer beware. If something gets cancelled or changed at the last minute, it will be your problem to fix. But with Lindsay, she will be on the phone, working it out and making sure that your trip is trouble free from start to finish.
“We are there really as your advocate,” she said.
And she is looking forward to planning your next trip. Her personal touch and custom service will make you feel well cared for by a friend who has your back and just wants you to have the best vacation you can possibly have. Her goal for 2026 is to plan group trips and lock in group rates.
Lindsay is booking clients now for summer travel, so if you’re interested, get in touch!
