Frequently Asked Questions on Honeymoon Travel
Why should I book my honeymoon with TheBigDay?
Here’s why we believe we’re the right people for your honeymoon travel:
Each of our agents specialize in certain destinations–they know the hotels, the wholesalers, and the current specials thoroughly.
If you buy your travel from us, and want to use our honeymoon registry, we’ll reduce the service charge on gifts bought — often to 0%! Click here for details.
You won’t have to pay for the whole trip when you book it: you’ll pay a small deposit up front, then the remainder usually is due between 30 and 60 days from your departure (depending upon the supplier).
Our agents know the on-time track records of the airlines and the major airports, so they’ll avoid scheduling a connecting flight that there’s a good chance you might not make.
Because our agents focus on just honeymoons, they know the special “extras” that each hotel has to offer wedding couples to make your honeymoon extra romantic — without costing more.
You’ll work with a real person, who’s accountable to you … a person you can contact directly to answer any questions and deal with any issues that might crop up.
What’s a “package”?
Typically combines your airfare, hotel, and car rental (or any two) for better prices than booking them separately.
Provides discount prices and customized itineraries.
Offers savings on thousands of hotels and resorts worldwide.
Don’t confuse “package” with “all-inclusive” (see below).
Will I be required to pay a fee to my agent for assistance with my travel reservations?
Generally no, but there are a few exceptions. Some trip planning requires in-depth, dedicated planning by your travel specialist, and may require a prepaid, non refundable consulting fee. This fee may be applied toward your travel purchase. Ask your travel specialist for details.
Will I be charged a fee for my airline reservations?
If your travel specialist is arranging air travel with no other travel reservations included, a ticketing fee will be assessed.
All-inclusives
A variety of resorts offering lots of value for your money.
Meals, many activities, “extras”, and often alcohol are included in the price.
Note: what’s included in one resort’s all-inclusive package might be very different from the next resort’s package. You need to know what’s really included and what you’ll still have to pay for at each resort to really compare them.
Contact our all-inclusives specialists to discuss all the available options.
Cruises
Sample multiple destinations without having to pack and unpack.
Includes meals, and most on-board entertainment and activities.
Often one of the best values for your money.
Note: different cruises are geared towards different age groups and lifestyles. Contact our cruise specialists to choose the cruise that’s right for you.
