Technology moves fast—and artificial intelligence (AI) has entered nearly every corner of our lives, including travel. In seconds, AI apps can generate itineraries, suggest trending destinations, and even pull together flight and hotel options.

It sounds almost too good to be true, right?

And in some ways, it is. While AI is an exciting tool for inspiration, it has one major limitation: it can’t replace the insight, personalization, and advocacy of a trusted travel advisor.

Here’s why the smartest travelers are learning to leverage both.


Where AI Falls Short

AI is great at crunching data and suggesting “what’s popular.” But travel is deeply personal—and that’s where the cracks begin to show.

  • Generic over Personal
    AI doesn’t know that you hate red-eye flights, that your anniversary trips always include a wine tasting, or that you prefer boutique hotels over chains.
  • Too Many Options
    Ever asked AI for a trip idea and ended up with an overwhelming list of “Top 20 Things to Do”? Decision fatigue sets in fast.
  • No Human Advocate
    If your flight is canceled or a hotel misplaces your reservation, AI won’t be on the phone fixing it. You’ll still be stuck waiting in line at customer service.
  • Lack of Vetted Connections
    AI can suggest a tour—it can’t guarantee that the guide shows up on time, or that the experience is worth your money.

What a Travel Advisor Brings to the Table

This is where my role as a travel advisor shines.

  • Personalization That Matters
    I learn about your travel style, your non-negotiables, and your dreams—and then design your trip around them.
  • Exclusive Access
    From resort perks and cruise upgrades to tours you can’t book on your own, I bring insider access that AI can’t replicate.
  • Problem Solving
    If something goes wrong, you don’t have to scramble. I’m your advocate, making sure you’re taken care of so you can stay focused on enjoying your trip.
  • Curated Simplicity
    Instead of sorting through 50 options, I narrow it down to the two or three that truly fit you.

The Best of Both Worlds

Think of AI as a GPS—it gives directions. But when you’re on the road, wouldn’t you rather have an experienced driver navigating the twists and turns?

AI is a helpful tool for sparking ideas, but it’s the travel advisor who brings those ideas to life—transforming data into memories, and logistics into experiences.


Final Thought

AI can suggest where to go.
But I help you discover where you’ll truly belong.

If you’re ready for a trip that’s more than just an itinerary, let’s create something unforgettable—together.
