Southwest Airlines, A New Low In Customer Care

2010-07-26T13:14:00.003-04:00

Yet another caution about looking for the cheapest services. A few days ago, in a previous blog, I cautioned about choosing the cheapest online travel option when booking a vacation. Now, a new caution, Southwest Airlines.

Southwest Airlines recently made a change to their "contract of carriage." This is the area which acts as the overall disclaimer of the airline to the passenger. The "contract of carriage" is a rarely read area which is posted online for all airlines explaining their contact of services and liabilities to you, their customer. It details their responsibility in the case of delays, lost luggage and flight cancellations.

The popular airlines has now added mechanical failures as "an act of God" as part of their "contract of carriage" to limit their liabilities to you, their client. Customer service clearly takes a backseat to their revenue. According to reports, this was done a few weeks ago without any media announcement. This basically means they believe "mechanical failures are outside their control."

I do understand that airlines do need to delay flights for various reasons. Many of those reasons are truly beyond the control of the airline. Recently passengers flying in Europe and through Europe experienced wild cancellations and delays because of a sudden spew of volcanic ash from Iceland. In a decision of safety and well being for both passengers and crew, flights had to be grounded. Other acts of mother nature or God have grounded flights when it has been determined safety is an issue. Personally, I'd rather wait on the ground and be delayed than fly in unstable conditions.

Maintenance is a major responsibility solely borne by the airline. Prior to planes directed to the gates, full checks of all systems should be made. Yes, there are times when an alert pilot or flight engineer finds a problem while going through their check points before take -off. For that, we need to be appreciative. Again, our safety should be the main issue.

However, for an airline to call their maintenance issues "an act of God" is a far stretch. This is their responsibility, part of their contract to you, the passenger, their client, to keep you safe. All business owners need to step up to the plate for customer service, including the airlines. If you think this is wrong, let Southwest Airlines know. Go on to their website and comment on their customer service area. Silence by you, the passenger, will let them think you don't care. Sometimes, silence isn't golden.

Are You Really Safe Booking Online Discount Travel?

2010-07-12T11:44:00.003-04:00

Today it was announced that another online discount travel company has filed Chapter 11, bankruptcy protection. Was the extra $50.00 to the traveler in savings worth the risk of now losing their vacation? Probably not.

Many of these large online agencies have accrued debt they cannot possibly recover from since the drop in the ecomony in 2009. This company, for example owes about $250,000.00 to creditors it cannot cover. The travelers, if the company does not pay the suppliers, will not be protected and may find themselves out in the cold when arriving to their destination or the airport.

When looking to travel, why risk your investment on a faceless travel booking engine? The value of planning your vacation personally with a travel consultant is worth more than a small discount you may receive as one of 100's booking your reservation. Many times the price of the vacation ultimately paid online is the same or more than the same vacation planned through a travel consultant.

Also, consider the fact you are going only by what you have read online. Did the online description accurately describe the accommodations? Is this the right fit for your needs? Also, did the online booking engine mention you are on three flights to a destination where maybe a nonstop is available for a few dollars more?

Most importantly, will there be someone there to help if you have any issues pretravel or during your travel? The marginal is answer is yes, there will be someone, maybe to answer the phone. Will they do everything possible to assist you? Probably not as you are just one of many and customer satisfaction is not a priority, numbers are.

So next time you have the urge to book it online with a faceless booking engine, think again. If it is 2:00 AM , wait until the morning and call a certified professional travel consultant. Ask questions, get professional advise and make sure this is the right vacation, accommodation and travel decision for you. In the end, even it is does cost a few dollars more, it is worth the investment in your vacation.

When you are ready to plan you vacation, call me. Find out the difference in personal travel planning. You will be happy you did!

Machu Picchu Reopens For Tourism

2010-04-05T09:23:00.005-04:00

After many longs months of anticipation, one of the world's most beautiful historical and cultural sights reopens. The Peruvian government was force to close this popular touring area after devastating rains flooded the site in late January.

Thousands of tourists and area residents were left stranded when torrential rains fell in the region. Due to mudslides caused by the floods, roadways and rail service were blocked. The only way out was by helicopter. Unfortunately due to poor visibility and continued bad weather, people remained in the towns and villages below for days.

Machu Picchu sits about 8,200 feet (2,500 meters) above sea level in the Andes Mountain range. This site of the Inca ruins was named by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site in 1983. It is Peru's most popular tourism site and responsible for the largest portion of their tourism income.

On April 1, 2010, the ancient site of Machu Picchu was reopened for tourism. This Inca citadel was built around 1450, but abandoned about 100 years later. The Inca site was refound by Hiram Bingham in 1911. Several theories as to why the Incas built this high outpost surround this ancient gift to us.

To visit Machu Picchu, visitors must go through the quaint town of Cusco. This town was recognized by the early Spanish conquerors in the 17th and 18th centuries. Not only is Cusco the gateway to the Inca Citadel perched in the Andes Mountains, but the town has a culture and life of it's own. Beautiful markets, the town square, Plaza de Armas, Chapel of Sagrada Familia and more charm the thousands of tourists on their way to the mystical ruins.

2010-03-31T16:53:00.004-04:00

Need a new passport? Better get moving soon. New passport fees are scheduled to go into effect sometime next month according to authorities.

The new fees announced by the US Passport office are as listed below:

Total Cost: $135 for a first-time U.S. Passport Book for adults (age 16 and over)
Total Cost: $110 for U.S. Passport Book renewal (age 16 and over only)
Total Cost: $105 for a U.S. Passport Book for minors (under age 16)
Total Cost: $55 for a first-time U.S. Passport Card for adults (age 16 and over)

Not only are passports required for all travel outside of the US (unless you are using a passport card for a border crossing only), but more and more, passports are also being used as legal identification when a driver's license is not available.

Shoe Scanners, Coming To An Airport Near You

2010-03-08T16:21:00.003-05:00

One of the most annoying things about going to the airport is going through security. As we wait in line, we are readying ourselves to remove our belts, jackets, the extra change in our pockets and anything else which make that annoying signal sound as we walk through the scanner.

Oh, and seems I forgot, we need to take our shoes off in many airports too! So added to that along with everything else, we are untying, unbuckling, and slipping out of shoes. Even worse is retrieving your shoes and doing that awkward dance of balance while putting your shoes back on. So by the time we undress and dress, the line seems to move ever so slowly.

But now, we may get a reprieve soon. Thanks to Israeli technology developed in 2003 in answer to the growing need for more security in airports, the shoe scanner was unveiled. This piece of equipment can detect metal or explosives which may be hidden in a shoe. This devise will have you simply step on a scanner, it will read your shoes and you keep on going, relieving some of the tie ups in the security line.

So now after a few years of refinement, the TSA (Transportation Security Administration) has announced it plans to buy 100 units by next year. The TSA has not yet announced where these units will be placed however. Hopefully this will get all of us through the lines faster and with an added ounce of security.

Wellness and Spa Vacations

2010-02-27T13:50:00.003-05:00

Over the past several years the popularity of spa and wellness travel has rapidly grown. So many of us say we need a vacation, we need to rest, we need to recharge our batteries. While this is so, very few of us really take a true rest and relaxation vacation.

Yes, we go, sit on the beach or by the pool or even a scenic lake. We bring a book and have a drink. However, have we really recharged our batteries? Have we done anything for our body or soul to reach a true rested, relaxed and healthy state?

I had the wonderful opportunity to interview Charles Wills, the creator of the Wills Wellness System. The Wills Wellness System is a well refined wellness system created during 16 years of study through out the Caribbean which uses holistic methods of healing the body. Along with his studies in the Caribbean, Charles had also studied with leading authorities in neuro-feedback and life extension, meditation and more.

His wellness treatments help heal the body in numerous ways. He frequently treats clients with issues including the inability to sleep well, high stress, and pain management. Charles' healing methods have helped many high level executives, celebrities and athletes fine tune their bodies and mind for better productivity, body and mind balance.

Luckily, Charles and the Wills Wellness System is not just for the executives of large corporations or celebrities. These wellness treatments are now available at Zoetry Agua Resort in Punta Cana. While visiting the beautiful Zoetry Agua, you can take advantage of not just spa treatments, but a true relaxation and healing vacation.

The newest addition to the Wills Wellness System is the Family Wellness Retreat. Families are now welcome to visit Zoetry Agua. Children accompanying the family must be over the age of 12. These wellness vacations will be available limited times through the year.

Other wellness techniques taught by the Wills Wellness System are:

Raising your I.Q. and Memory Retention
Pain Free Living
Weight loss
Reconnecting with yourself and your partner
Biology of thoughts
Numerology Review
IBS
Anxiety
Fibromyalgia
Living Younger Longer

Not only are families welcome, but also small groups including girl friend getaways and of course small corporate events. Of course, you don't have to be part of a group to take advantage of the wellness system. Brides and grooms, after the stress of planning the wedding, start your lives together learning to connect with your new life partner and techniques to unstress and relax for a blissful honeymoon and marriage.

Coming soon, 3 day special couples and single treatment packages!

Now is the time to think about your wellness. When considering your vacation, make it a wellness, a Wills Wellness Systems retreat. For more information about your Zoetry Auga Wills Wellness Systems Retreat, call me. I will be able to help you not only make your reservation, but reserve your treatments for your wellness.

When you reserve your resort reservation and treatment, I will have a special offer to you available exclusively through me from Charles Wills. So call me soon, don't delay.

Make your next vacation a true vacation. Return home a new you, healthier and better than ever!

NEW US AIR BOARDING PROCEDURES

2009-12-28T14:42:00.003-05:00

As most of you have heard or read, an unfortunate security breach happened on a Northwest/KLM Airlines flight from Nigeria en-route to the US via Amsterdam. Luckily the devise did not detonate properly and alert passengers thwarted the effort.

In light of this event, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) announced new security screening including physical pat-down of all passengers boarding flight will begin on all international flights. US Airways announced today they will begin implementing the procedure immediately. Surely more airlines will follow.

With this information coming to light, please allow additional time for your boarding. This means, arrive at the airport a bit earlier than the usual 2 hours.

Please keep in mind, this is for your security and safety. Passengers not wishing to comply will not be permitted to board the flight. While in flight, non compliance of the new 1 hour sitting rule prior to landing will be subject to arrest by authorities upon arrival at the airport.

The following is a memo sent to US Air Crew:

Due to the recent event on Delta’s flight 253 AMS-DTW, airlines are being asked to use a best faith effort to implement, as soon as possible, the following security items on international flights arriving into the United States. We expect additional information/changes from the TSA to be disseminated within the next 24 hours.

I. BOARDING GATE

A. The aircraft operator or authorized air carrier representative must ensure all passengers are screened at the boarding gate during the boarding process using the following procedures. These procedures are in addition to the screening of all passengers at the screening checkpoint.

* 1. Perform thorough pat-down of all passengers at boarding gate prior to boarding, concentrating on upper legs and torso.
* 2. Physically inspect 100 percent of all passenger accessible property at the boarding gate prior to boarding, with focus on syringes being transported along with powders and/or liquids.
* 3. Current restrictions regarding liquids, aerosols, and gels will be strictly adhered to.
* 4. Crewmembers working the flight and those deadheading in uniform are exempt from the above screening measures.

II. IN FLIGHT

A. During flight, the aircraft operator must ensure that the following procedures are followed:

* 1. Passengers must remain in seats beginning 1 hour prior to arrival at destination.
* 2. Passenger access to carry-on baggage is prohibited beginning 1 hour prior to arrival at destination.
* 3. Disable passenger cabin SATCOM capability. Any need for air to ground communication will be coordinated through the flight deck. GPS generated moving maps in the cabin will also be disabled. Attempts to access the moving map display will lock up the screen requiring a Flight Attendant reset to access other components of the IFE program.
* 4. While over U.S. airspace, flight crew may not make any announcement to passengers concerning flight path or position over cities or landmarks.
* 5. Passengers may not conceal their hands under blankets, pillows, or personal belongings held on their lap beginning 1 hour prior to arrival at destination. Pillows and blankets may be stowed under the seat in front or in overhead bins. Customers may retain any reading material issued by the Company and/or a personal book. They may also retain a jacket or sweater as long as their hands are not concealed by the garment.

Please contact your dispatcher or Chief Pilot Office if you have any questions concerning the above items.

Excellence Riviera Cancun Resort and Spa

2009-08-03T17:26:00.004-04:00

Not all resorts are created equally! I just returned from a wonderful 4 nights at Excellence Riviera Cancun Resort and Spa. This elegant, luxury all adult, all inclusive resort just minutes from the Cancun Airport is a little slice of heaven.

This is not the first time I stayed at an Excellence Resort, so I was curious if this experience would be as nice. Happily, the experience was even better, surpassing my expectations.

Upon arrival to the resort we were immediately handed a chilled cloth to refresh ourselves as well as a glass of chilled champagne. Check-in was very quick, friendly and efficient and then off to our room escorted by a bellman with quick explanations about the resort.

When we arrived in to the room, the air conditioning was on as well as some lights. The television was on set to the resort information station. Our room, a junior suite was spacious with their signature double jacuzzi and four poster framed bed. Also, a bottle of chilled champagne and a bowl of fruit awaited.

The above picture is the view of the fabulous spa from our room...not hard to take. The meandering pool lagoon feeds into the main pool where the swimup bar is located near the beach. The lagoon is dotted with palapas, pool beds, in pool loungers and floats. The main pool along the beach features the swimup bar and activities such as pool volleyball and aerobics.

After your flight, you may be hungry. You have a choice of 4 venues from which to have lunch, 2 of which are poolside. If you really want to be pampered, lunch can be delivered to your pool or beach lounge chair.

Dinner offers 8 venues for dining in addition to room service. Breakfast also offers room service or the choice or 2 dining venues. Oh, did I mention room service? Yes, room service is available 24 hours a day!

Remember the spa in the picture? This is an activity not to be missed! Take advantage of the aqua therapy before your treatment. For our first spa treatment we had the Excellence Treatment as a couple. This is a melange of treatments ranging from Swedish to Shiatzu to stretching. My second treatment was the hot stone treatment. Both were wonderful.

The grounds and gardens were very impressive. Beautiful plants and trees with fountains and iron sculptures created a perfect atmosphere. The main square of the resort featured a bar called Cafe Kafe and next to that an entertainment stage, the main theater and a wedding gazebo. Also in the main square, enjoy the Manager's cocktail party at 5:00PM on Wednesday nights. Not far away if pool or shuffleboard tickle your fancy, it's right there.

If you like to exercise, a fully equipped fitness center is available to all guests. Additionally, morning yoga and stretching classes are offered. You also might want to take a walk on the beautiful long beach and enjoy the perfect weather.

After dinner, enjoy the evening show at the theater. If you still have energy, the nightclub is open for your dancing pleasure.

Other activities on resort include beach sports like volleyball and soccer. A watersports area is at your fingertips with paddle boats and sail boats. You can also opt for water excursions for diving and snorkeling. Each evening a complimentary shuttle is offered for shopping trips to Puerto Morales.

For more information about booking your Excellence vacation, call me now, 267-879-8250 or email me at adrienne@rubinsohntravel.com. Also, for more photos, go to Adrienne at Rubinsohn Travel on Facebook.
