What’s Your Travel Style?
Are you the "thrill-seeker" driving your group forward, or the "organizer" ensuring everyone stays on schedule?
As a new year begins, you're likely contemplating all the exciting destinations you want to explore! Key questions arise, like where to go and the best way to get there. However, an equally important question is, who will accompany you? Since we all have unique travel styles, having a diverse travel squad can enhance your experience and create lasting memories!
So, what role do you play in your travel group? Identify which of these personalities aligns most closely with yours to discover your travel persona.
Dinner plans? Six-hour layover? What should you explore first? You’ve got it all figured out.The Organizer
Someone needs to ensure the travel itinerary flows seamlessly, and that's you! One of the greatest joys of vacations is the abundance of activities, but this might require your group to either split up or make compromises. No worries—you’re aware of the showtimes, the nearby dining options, and you’ve already saved the best attractions. You can map out daily excursions with time to unwind after adventures, maximizing every trip experience. An Organizer is essential for a successful vacation, but having too many in the group can create chaos!

Beach towel, check. Novel, check. Sunbathing, check.The Sun-Seeker
You travel for three essentials: Sand, sunshine, and sea. After working hard all year and juggling a hectic schedule, your vacations are all about relaxation. There’s nothing quite like the sound of the waves, the feel of warm sand beneath your feet, and the sun on your skin—unless it’s a piña colada or a mai tai in your hand. If others choose to go hiking or ziplining, that’s their choice. Fortunately, vacations like Caribbean cruises provide plenty of activities for them, and you’ll be saving a spot for them by the beach when they come back.
