If you’ve ever felt like planning a vacation is turning into a second job, you’re not alone. Between researching hotels, comparing reviews, figuring out the best room categories, and trying to unlock hidden perks — it’s easy to burn hours (and still feel unsure you’ve made the best choices).
That’s where a great travel advisor comes in. And if you’re picturing a dusty office and outdated brochures, think again. Today’s luxury travel advisors — especially at Turbo Travelers — are modern, efficient, well-traveled professionals who save you time, elevate your experience, and unlock VIP access you can’t get on your own.
And here’s the kicker: for most travelers, our services are completely free.
Wait, What’s the Catch?
There isn’t one. At Turbo Travelers, two of our service tiers — Insider Access and Turbo Status — cost nothing for the client. We’re compensated by the hotels, cruise lines, and tour operators we book on your behalf. It’s essentially like having elite loyalty status, without needing to fly 50 times a year or spend countless nights on the road.
If you already do have status with a brand like Marriott Bonvoy or Hilton Honors — good news: our perks stack on top of yours.
What Kind of Perks Are We Talking About?
Through our partnerships with luxury brands around the world, we can unlock exclusive benefits like:
- Room upgrades (often confirmed at time of booking)
- Daily breakfast for two
- $100+ hotel credits for spa, dining, or experiences
- Early check-in / late check-out
- Welcome amenities
- Special rates not available online
These aren’t promotional offers — they’re guaranteed perks available only through advisors like us.
From Globalist to Travel Advisor Convert
I didn’t start out as a travel advisor. I started as a traveler — and a serious one. I’m a Hyatt Globalist, and for years I built my trips around Hyatt properties to take advantage of the perks that come with that status.
But then I started wanting more flexibility. On one trip, I worked with a travel advisor to book five luxury hotels across Europe — only one of which was a Hyatt. The experience was better than status. I still got upgrades, VIP treatment, and credits, and the process was seamless. Even at the Hyatt, my advisor’s perks stacked with my own, making it an unbeatable experience.
That’s when I realized: this is what travelers deserve — especially those who are too busy to research but want every detail just right.
The Time Factor: Why Researching Alone Doesn’t Pay
Let’s face it: even if you love to travel, you probably don’t love spending hours comparing hotel layouts, checking whether the “ocean view” room is really a sliver of blue, or cross-referencing reviews between sites.
Our clients are often dual-career couples or busy families who value great experiences — but don’t have time to plan them. We take that off your plate, and we do it better, faster, and with more insider knowledge than any algorithm or travel forum can offer.
We don’t just find you a hotel. We’ll tell you which room numbers are best for families with young kids, which suites are furthest from the noise, and which properties consistently go above and beyond for our clients.
And Unlike Online Travel Agencies (OTAs)…
…we don’t just take your credit card and leave you on your own. While sites like Expedia or Booking.com can seem convenient, they often come with hidden downsides:
- You rarely earn loyalty points.
- You forfeit the chance at upgrades or credits.
- You’re stuck if something goes wrong — no real support.
- Hotels often give OTA bookings the least desirable rooms.
For luxury travelers, the small savings on those sites usually aren’t worth the trade-offs. Turbo Travelers makes sure you get the best rate and the best experience — with support before, during, and after your trip.
What Sets Turbo Travelers Apart
We Don’t Just Plan Travel — We Live It
At Turbo Travelers, our style is based on real-world experience. We’ve crossed borders with babies, navigated multiple countries in a single week, and stayed in some of the world’s best hotels — all while keeping things efficient, luxurious, and well worth the investment.
Time-Saving Expertise
You get a streamlined, stress-free planning process. No forms to fill out, no decision fatigue — just curated, vetted options that fit your style and priorities.
Status Without the Status
Even if you’ve never stayed at a luxury brand before, booking with us makes you feel like a VIP from day one.
Stackable Benefits
If you do have status with a hotel brand, we maximize it. If you don’t, we make sure you don’t feel like you’re missing out.
Relationship-Based Perks
We don’t just click “book.” We email the hotel manager, share your preferences, and make sure your arrival is anticipated — not just processed.
The Bottom Line
You could spend hours planning your own trip. You could use points and still not get treated like a VIP. You could book online and get the standard room.
Or you could use a travel advisor — for free — and get upgrades, perks, and personalized service without lifting a finger.
At Turbo Travelers, we make it effortless. Whether you’re traveling as a couple, with your kids, or with a multigenerational group, our job is to make you feel like you have status — even if you don’t.
