FAQs – Booking a Custom Itinerary with The Check-In Collective
What is a custom itinerary?
A custom itinerary is a fully personalized trip designed around your interests, travel style, and budget. Instead of choosing a pre-set package, every component, including hotels, transfers, tours, pace, and experiences, is hand-selected to fit what you want out of your trip.
Does it cost extra to have you plan a custom itinerary?
No. There is no additional planning fee for creating your itinerary. You’ll receive personalized recommendations, curated experiences, and full support at no extra cost beyond the travel components you choose to book.
Can I customize how much (or how little) is planned?
Yes. Some travelers want every detail scheduled; others prefer a lighter framework with plenty of free time. Your itinerary is built to match the level of structure you’re most comfortable with.
Do you only plan luxury trips?
Not at all. While I work closely with many luxury partners, custom itineraries can be designed across a wide range of budgets and travel styles—from boutique hotels and small-group tours to top-tier suites and private experiences.
Can you book flights as part of my itinerary?
Yes. I can assist with flight research and book your flights directly. There is a $50 per-ticket service fee for flight bookings, which covers the time involved in monitoring schedules, securing the best options, and supporting any ticket changes before or during travel.
How long does the planning process take?
Most proposals are delivered within 5–7 business days, depending on the complexity of the trip and the destination. More intricate, multi-country itineraries may take a bit longer. You’ll always receive an expected timeline before we begin.
What if I need to make changes after the itinerary is finalized?
Revisions are welcome. Travel is dynamic, and I’m here to adjust plans as needed before and during your trip. If major redesigns are requested, I’ll let you know what to expect.
Do you offer 24/7 support during travel?
Yes. You’ll have access to round-the-clock assistance through me and my in-destination partners. If anything unexpected comes up, help is always available.
Can you accommodate special interests or requests?
Absolutely. Culinary experiences, adventure activities, wellness retreats, wine regions, history-focused touring, family-friendly design, accessibility needs – your itinerary is shaped entirely around your priorities.
