Build Relationships and Be Loyal: Cash in on the flexibilityand leverage you have in the competitive travel industry. Theywant your business! Think about it this way. Let's say youprovide a service. Wouldn't you typically charge less and givefirst class service to your friends than some new guy off thestreet? I know we all figure we'll give first class service toeveryone, but this isn't the case. Remember, it's who you knowthat gets you pretty far in this world. We reward those who areloyal and we know well. This is the idea behind frequent flyerprograms and such. This works in all aspects of the travelindustry, not just airlines. #2. Choose the right travel specialists to work with: Whetheryou book online or with an agent, be sure you've asked a lot ofquestions and done your research. They aren't all equal. But,don't chase huge discounts, consider service and quality and notjust price, and understand whom you choose to work with. Thisway you'll know how to get deals in luxury accommodations. #3. Turn Problems into Opportunities: Stick with a few qualitycompanies and if they make an

error, be sure to take advantageof that- but be nice and don't take advantage of them. Thesecompanies want to maintain a high level of quality and rely ontheir customers to provide constructive feedback andsatisfaction/dissatisfaction. Also, if someone is not willing towork with you, find someone who will or somewhere else to stay.I once learned that a smart individual will find opportunity intimes of turmoil and be a problem solver not problem maker. Ifyou go at it at this approach, you'll spot opportunities toimprove your vacation and improve other travelers' vacations bystrengthening a weakness! #4. Ask, Ask, Ask and Then Tell: I have learned in business andlife that you will never get anything unless you ask. See ifthey can upgrade you. Perhaps your special occasion will allowyou to travel first class or maybe they have a suite instead ofa two double bed room. The point: don't be afraid to see if theycan do better. Also, whether they are helpful in your upgradesor not, say thank you and how much you appreciate their help.These little words can go a great distance and leave a lastingimpact. #5. Timing is Important: You can't expect to get first classtravel during busy times. So, time of year travel is importantif you want to get the luxury you deserve.
