One of the many lessons I have learned in my own travels is the importance of booking the most direct flightt! One year I booked a whimsical trip to Paris in the Winter - thinking that I would rather spend the money there, then on the flight, I chose a discounted fare with two stopovers X wrong answer X One of the stopovers ended up being in New York , and being winter, of course it got delayed. In the end the flight from Vancouver to Paris took 24 hours....waisted valuable time that could have been spent sipping wine at the local brasserie.....
I took this lesson and have applied it to the advice I now give my clients. How valuable is your time? Would you rather a) save a $100.00 with a load of added stress? or b) would you rather arrive at your destination well rested and ready to hit the scene? - I pick b) anytime....
