The dedication and support that Janelle from Cruise Planners provided was exceptional. She made the whole process of scheduling our trip easy. We gave her details about what we wanted on our cruise and she came back with numerous options that were perfect for us. The support continued even on our trip; when we had an unexpected delay, Janelle immediately reached out to us asking if we needed anything from her. We highly recommend her and the Cruise Planners company for anyone looking to book a cruise.

Janelle with Cruise Planners did an amazing job for us with our senior group of 29. She handled every detail from start: (designing a trip to meet our criteria, promoting & presenting it to the travelers, arranging air fares) to finish: (arranging and confirming details from home to airport to hotel to cruise ship). She even helped us reserve a special dinner together for our group. It made it so easy to manage all the components of traveling with seniors to ensure a successful trip! I will definitely use her services again. Thank you, Janelle!

Monday, October 28th 2024
The buffet was HUGE. But, if you saw something that looked good you better grab it because you may never find it again because it was so huge. All food was excellent. One gripe is that the 3 restaurants that we could go to all had the same menu each night. They changed the menu every night but all 3 restaurants were the same. Up charges at the other restaurants were insane. We didn't go to any of them.Our room was GREAT!!! I'm glad we upgraded. Also being on the 15th deck was convenient since the buffet and sky lounge were one floor above us. No waiting for an elevator. You mentioned when we booked that we might here noise from up there. We heard a little at times but it was no big deal at all. I'm glad that we didn't change rooms.
I thought that drinks were reasonably priced. Beer was $8. That's the same price as one of our favorite restaurants in New Berlin. But, we don't drink a lot. We didn't come close to using the amount charged for the beverage package.
The medallion device was neat. When you waked up to a bartender, they knew who you were. Easy to get off/on the ship.

Thanks to my always helpful and extremely knowledgeable travel agent, Janelle Andrews, all of the arrangements and preparation for my cruise went very smoothly. Janelle has always responded to any requests or questions I've had in record time. When I have encountered problems along the way, she has patiently listened to me sometimes venting about a problem and promptly offered to help me resolve it. I have given Uniworld a 10 out of 10 rating for this cruise - this is my third one with this company and they have never disappointed me. Unfortunately, my experiences with United Airlines were less than satisfactory. I booked Business class for each leg of my flight and for some reason, United managed to double-book my seat on flight UA144 from Newark to Porto. I was quite rudely kicked back into Economy seating and was not offered any compensation for this downgrade. It was the UA agents that were rude - the cabin crew were sympathetic to my situation but were powerless to correct it. For any future travel, I want to exclude United as a carrier unless they are the only possibility for making a connection. Again, I want to emphasize that Janelle, Cruise Planners and Uniworld gave me outstanding service. Also, the Air Canada flight from Lisbon to Montreal was a pleasurable experience. My only beef is with United.

Janelle Andrews did an awesome job getting us ready for our Hawaiian cruise on the Norwegian Pride of America. Our flight, hotel, Tour of Pearl Harbor, and private ground transportation were flawless prior to the cruise. The ship worked well for us. It is a smaller ship but we were always able to get lounge chairs by the swimming pool and a seat at any of the bar venues on board. We were very happy with the staff on The Pride of America. Everyone was very friendly and hospitable. Even though it is an older ship it is kept very clean and well maintained.

Janelle planned our honeymoon and It was perfect! It was the perfect balance between drive time and being able to see enough things. It was just enough structure without being overwhelming and the hotels she selected were GORGEOUS! Definitely missed the A/C but it was exceptionally warm for the time of year we were there. We got to see and do everything we wanted without the hassle of doing it ourselves while planning the wedding

My awesome Cruise Planners travel advisor was Janelle Andrews. She was very helpful and dedicated to make my trip a great experience. We ended staying at a hotel where several of my cousins were staying. Janelle was always there to answer all of my questions and concerns. I would definitely recommend her again for my future trips. This was a land trip, and she was fantastic. Great job Janelle.

We just returned from our trip of a lifetime! We were referred to Janelle Andrews from a friend that has worked with her before. It was the best decision! Janelle was very responsive to our many, many questions! Janelle was so helpful with setting up our cruise and making sure that we had transportation when in Italy along with hotels the few days before and after the cruise. Everything she set up for us was perfect! We never could have planned this amazing trip without her help! We will absolutely reach out to Janelle when we are ready to travel again!

I just wanted to reach out and express our gratitude for your expertise and the work you put into helping us have such an enjoyable cruise. We had such a great time on the ship and off at our excursions.

Janelle was very helpful planning our trip to Hard Rock, Puerta Vallarta, and we definitely will work with her again!. She had options for us to consider while planning our family trip, and shared great details as we asked questions.Once we booked, she was an even more wonderful asset! She helped with all the international travel plans, and kept in touch leading up to the trip with excellent travel info and preparation help.

Janelle did a excellent job helping us plan a cruise to the Panama Canal. This trip was taken with my parents (75 and 78) and Janelle made sure everything was done to accommodate. She responded to every email and question same day. She also met with us in person and provided a printed out packet of everything we would need. A wonderful lady to work with. I will most definitely book with her again. Thank you Janelle for helping to make this life long trip come true for my parents and me!

I just returned from the 15-day Uniworld "Timeless Wonders of Vietnam, Cambodia and the Mekong" tour. Janelle worked with me throughout the entire process of planning this trip, from obtaining the required visas to finding the best way for me to connect with my flight at O'Hare, which is 2 hours away from where I live. Over many years, I had gotten used to the sometimes time-consuming process of researching destinations and the associated requirements using Expedia and other online travel tools. Janelle responded quickly to every question I posed to her and anticipated my needs for information sometimes before I even asked. Suffice it to say that I am now spoiled and intend to use her and Cruise Planners for every major vacation I plan to take in the future. I would include photos with this testimonial, but have not yet really begun to sort through the 1,000+ pictures I took with my phone and my Olympus camera. The experiences I had on this trip are priceless and many of the people I met along the way were wonderful. I intend to stay in touch with some of them and hope that our paths will cross again in the future.

We have been using Janelle as a travel agent for many years. This year we went on our first cruise. She coordinated 10 of us as best as she could. We actually were all on the same floor as each other. From excursions to flights to ship information, everything went pretty well. As with all of our other trips she has helped us with, this one went without a hitch. Janelle is very responsive to questions. She is very quick to get back to you with answers to any questions we may have. Any changes or issues, she is there to help and very quickly. Janelle answers honestly and sincerely. Cannot go wrong using her. You will have the best advice whether it be a cruise or another adventure.

Monday, June 12th 2023
The resort Janelle recommended in the Dominican Republic was so beautiful and we had a fabulous time with our family of 6 (4 children ranging from 13-22) We would 100% work with Janelle again, she covered every detail for us and took the stress out of all the planning. Everything from our flight, airport round trip transfer and check in and out from our resort went seamlessly. Thank you so much Janelle! We made memories to last us a lifetime!

I absolutely loved working with Janelle! She booked a trip for my niece and I to go to Spain. The hotels she found for us were fun and so nice. She set up all of our transfers from one place to the next so we could get around easily and confidently (so much appreciated in another country where I don't speak their language). She helped us book just enough tours to get the full experience and still leave plenty of time to explore on our own. And all the while we knew she was a call away if we needed anything while we were there! Can't wait to book our next trip with her!!

It’s an oddity to find wonderful customer service - she exceeded every expectation!

Janelle was absolutely great to work with - from planning the trip all the way through the end of the trip. She was not only patient with our decision making, she was super responsive and able to answer all of our questions. Even when our flights got cancelled days before we were to leave, she immediately was able to get us on a different flight and help us pivot to ensure we were able to get to our destination as planned! Janelle was very detail oriented and provided us with everything we needed. Thinking about planning a trip? Work with Janelle Andrews from Cruise Planners! I know we will continue to use her in the future!

Sunday, October 9th 2022
We recently completed a 10 day British Isles cruise and while we hit a few bumps in the road due to unexpected flight delays, bad weather and airport issues, our travel agent Janelle Andrews was there for us every step of the way. We had trouble uploading photo copies of our passports to United Airlines before our trip (she was able to assist), had trouble connecting with our driver when we landed at Heathrow due to our flight being slightly delayed (she facilitated the communication between us and the driver); had ports with scheduled excursions cancelled due to the weather and were diverted to Liverpool (Janelle was able to arrange a private tour of Liverpool for us). Before we left she assisted us with hotel and tour reservations in London and Amsterdam as we added days to our vacation before and after the cruise. She also advised us that there were issues at Schiphol Airport and that we probably needed to be picked up earlier than planned so we changed to an earlier pickup time and were able to make it to our gate 30 minutes before boarding while others in line likely missed their flights. We can’t thank Janelle and Cruise Planners for everything that made our vacation truly enjoyable and memorable.

–Lelie H.
Monday, September 19th 2022
Janelle was excellent in arranging our cruise and helping line up our excursions. She was easy to work with and very prompt in responding to any questions we had. in fact, she often anticipated questions we should be asking.

Janelle was the absolute best to work with. Not only was she informational and patient she gave us what we asked for, it was right in our budget. We are so happy we were able to go to our dream destination Alaska for our honeymoon. If we would have done it ourselves it wouldn't of happened so for that we are grateful. We will be using her again in the future.

Tuesday, August 16th 2022
Janelle planned both our Alaskan cruise and our Disney trip and both were amazing! Everything was seamless and easy to check-in and we were able to just enjoy our time.–Cindy G.

This agency has been very helpful with all of our travel needs including deciding where to make the most of our vacation time, booking and getting ready for our vacation!–Dee Dee M.
Sunday, August 14th 2022
I am so grateful for Janelle. I gave her very short notice of a desired type of vacation for a group of 7 (4 adults + 3 teens). I didn't really care where we went but wanted a beach destination that offered plenty of options for us to do things as a group as well as "do our own thing". In no time at all, Janelle had a trip planned for St. Pete Beach, FL! She had all the travel itineraries taken care of down to every detail. When our flight landed, I received a text message from the driver letting me know he was there and how to find him. It was such a relief to not have to do all this stuff myself. Janelle's suggestion of St. Pete Beach was absolutely perfect for our group. Some of us love the sun & water and others not as much. The Rum Fish Resort offered great options for everyone, and we all had a great time. I was able to get in my much needed "R&R" as well as some fun stuff. Some of the things we did included an ocean wave runner tour, a day at Zoo Tampa, collecting sea shells, poolside activities, great dining options, and some really cool site seeing. My only disappointment is that we couldn't stay longer. I am not a big traveler and any past vacations/getaways I planned myself. Thank you Janelle for taking all that planning and travel bookings off my plate. Memories were made on this trip and all I had to do was show up.

–Kevin M.

A co-worker referred me to Janelle. I couldn't be more pleased. Our trip to Cancun was fantastic, my first international trip so I was a little nervous. Janelle was there for every big and small question or concern I had. We will surely book with Janelle again.

–Lisa S.
Wednesday, April 6th 2022
We recently returned home from three cruises that took us to 10 ports throughout the Caribbean. Two of these were back-to-back cruises that Janelle helped us rebook after they were canceled in 2021. She also helped us add a third cruise after the first two. We had a great time getting away from our Wisconsin winter weather to enjoy tropical warmth and sandy beaches. Janelle helped us with a few issues that arose during the cruises and was very responsive in getting them resolved. We appreciate everything she does to make our vacations go smoothly!

Overall she was absolutely wonderful to work with and I would highly recommend her and use her in the future.

Janelle is wonderful! She helped us plan a family trip with my young adult children. She provided very organized details and the trip itinerary was always right at our fingertips. Quick response when we had a question while waiting at airport for our rental too! She was ready and willing to help with any hiccups along the way.

Janelle was a pleasure to work with. She provided our multi-generational group several options for room configurations that worked well for all of us.

We were so thankful for her expertise!

I cannot say enough about Janelle! She is amazing! We had to reschedule a few trips due to "the times" we're in and she always gave us hope that it would all work out. Her patience with me was beyond expectation! She did all the work to get us the best experience possible from planning, to booking and even "send off" and "welcome back" messages! If you need to plan a once in a lifetime trip or a quick get away, Janelle is your person!

Friday, September 17th 2021
We had a wonderful time on our cruise.Thanks to the help of Janelle, we were well prepared for this trip.

Janelle has consistently done amazing work to book cruises and to then monitor for upgrades and price changes. She answers all questions promptly and has good contacts in the cruise industry. She is very reliable, personable and a great resource for travel needs.

It was a pleasure to work with Janelle through the long cruise planning process. We originally booked our cruise in January 2020, but the pandemic forced us to rebook it twice. Through that uncertain time, it was reassuring to know that Janelle was with us every step of the way. We especially appreciated the fact that Janelle is an excellent communicator so we were always clear about what to expect. Thank you, Janelle, for your excellent service! We hope we can work with you again in the future.

I have been taking cruises for a few years now. Janelle has done a wonderful job finding us deals and discounts, places to stay, transportation, and other vacation needs. I never have to worry about a thing. It has been a great relief to be stress free around vacations.

We did some research on our own for travel plans for my 40th birthday. I met Janelle through networking and decided to shoot her an email regarding our trip. She was able to save us a TON! It was also a wonderful experience to have her book everything for us with her expertise. Thank you Janelle for helping to plan the trip of a lifetime!

We knew we wanted to take a vacation but we didn't want to just book through a travel site when it came to travelling internationally. Janelle was AMAZING from the very first second we were introduced. She listened, she suggested and ultimately we are now booked to take the trip of our dreams! THANK YOU JANELLE!

Janelle is absolutely amazing. My family and I have booked a few trips with her over the last couple years. Her attention to detail and making sure that we are aware of everything that’s going on, is top notch!She is both professional and personal, which is a great combination. We had to cancel our Disney trip in March due to Covid. We were going to lose travel credits and Janelle came up with a new plan for us to still have a vacation, which we will be leaving for October 21 in Florida. She and her family do so much traveling that she has experienced a lot of places, and can give good recommendations. We’re looking forward to our trip in Saint Petersburg.
Thank you Janelle for your hard work and dedication to your craft in the travel industry!!

She is both professional and personal,…

Janelle has done a great job for us. Finding the best resorts, getting better pricing than we could ourselves, and when COVID hit, making sure we did not lose money on a trip we had to cancel. She is way better than the experiences we have had booking things online, and less expensive too..

Janelle recently assisted us when our 2021 cruises on Carnival were canceled. She communicated with us quickly and worked immediately to look for other options. We eventually booked a back-to-back cruise in 2022, and she was able to seamlessly transfer our previous payments over to the new cruises. It's great to have a travel advisor like Janelle who helps to make our vacations worry-free!

Janelle is simply the best! She has planned several of our Sandals vacations over the past several years and always makes everything seamless. From flights to hotels to off-site adventures she has the answers. When we have questions prior to booking she always is prompt with her responses. Janelle goes above and beyond our expectations and is always spot on with additional info or suggestions. Even due to the current Covid-19 restrictions and cancellations she has spent additional time to make sure we were credited a down payment. We love Sandals but we love the way Janelle takes care of us more. We definitely will be using Janelle to book our next Sandals vacation.

We had planned an Asian cruise with Janelle 6 months ago. All hotels, flights, parking and details were finalized. However, we decided to cancel that cruise less than a week we were scheduled to travel due to the coronavirus. Janelle went above and beyond, once again, spending countless hours figuring out cancellation policies, getting credits/money back working with the cruise line, airline and hotels to make the changes. There is no way we could have done all of that without her. Her contacts, knowledge, timely attention, understanding and patience are incredible. Not only did she do all of this while on her own vacation, she booked a Caribbean cruise for us in the same time frame of when we planned on traveling. It was a very stressful 5 days, but it turned out to be an incredible trip. Janelle is amazing and I wouldn't want to travel without her as our agent.

Janelle made planning our Caribbean cruise so easy! She quickly responded to all of our questions before the trip, and she worked around our busy schedule to make planning easier for us. She had all the details organize so we had everything we needed to board the ship. Her packing recommendations were spot-on, and the excursion she recommended was the highlight of our trip! We had one issue while on the ship regarding our on-board credit account, and she immediately assisted in fixing the problem for us. We will definitely be using Janelle again!

This trip has been on my bucket list for many years, and we finally made it happen. This was our first international flight and trip, and Janelle Andrews at Cruiseplanners, worked with me to set up exactly what I wanted to see and where I wanted to stay. The tour we booked, included all of the Wild Alantic way, and it was beautiful, and the guide was a local native, who gave us interesting information and took us to places that weren't crowded with tour buses. A special stop was planned so that we could take pictures with my daughter Shannon, next to the Shannon River! We stayed in a beautiful B&B, with a Host that was so friendly and gracious, we would stay there again. The rental car that was booked for us, was a brand new vehicle, and picking up the car and dropping it off was easier than anything we have ever done in the states. Janelle was always available to help or answer questions 24/7, which took away all of the worry in case something came up. We did have a question about our return flights, and Janelle answered by questions, even with a 6 hour time difference, and she stayed in touch with me throughout my flights until I landed back in the states. Her dedication to our trip and being there whenever we needed an answer took the stress away of flying internationally for our first time! We will absolutely go again, and I look forward to working with Janelle with some other vacation plans we have.

The trip was awesome!We took the trolley every day to Duvall St. and had a great time (in retrospect we should have taken a Uber). The trolley was great for the tour/history of the island though so the one you booked was well worth it! The dolphin/snorkeling cruise was awesome-got some great photos. We also booked a sunset dinner cruise while we were there-that was nice too and the food and drinks well paid for the ticket.
Thanks for helping us have a wonderful and memorable honeymoon.

We had a problem with our flight going back home from vacation. We reached out to Janelle and within 5 minutes she had us booked on a different flight the next day and was working on our travel insurance claim. Without Janelle we would have spent the night in the DFW airport. Instead, we had another day in paradise with costs covered 100%. Thank you Janelle!

Hi Janelle,Johnny and I can’t thank you enough. This was probably one of our best vacations. It was awesome to be greeted and get through customs so fast. Our room was good. (Nothing fancy, but that’s okay) We loved the view to the beach. The hotel staff was amazing. Everyone was very kind and catering. Great Service. It was nice to have a variety of options during the day and night. The best thing of all was our dinner on our anniversary. The meal was absolutely 5 stars. Thank you for all your research and effort you did. We truly appreciate it and plan on using you again.

Janelle was incredibly quick to respond to all of my tedious and multiple questions. She has so much knowledge, money saving tips and suggestions on how to make our trip the trip of our dreams. We did the Hawaiian Cruise with Norwegian. Janelle's package in Honolulu 2 days prior to cruising was most enjoyable. The accommodations, transfers, tours were highly enjoyable and very professional. The planning, apps, website tools Janelle provided were extremely useful. All of our trip information was on our phone and easily accessible. Professional, Personal and Knowledgeable...I highly recommend Janelle for any vacation.

Five of us couples celebrating either or both milestone of turning 60 years old and being married 35 years were planning an adventure to Iceland and Ireland. Always thinking we can do these things on our own, we spotted a Groupon Getaway for a 5-day trip to Iceland. Problem was, 2 of the couples were late to log in and the Groupon was sold out. Janelle was able to book the same hotel at the same time and sign up those 2 couples for the same excursions. Although the excursions ended up being with a different company, we were all together every evening and even overlapped at The Blue Lagoon so we could all spend much of our holiday together. All 5 couples added Ireland to the mix, the 2 couples went prior to Iceland and the other 3 of us afterward and Janelle planned transfers and excursions just perfectly based on our interests. Next time we are skipping Groupon and just calling Janelle!

My husband and I used Janelle Andrews as our travel agent for our wedding in Puerto Vallarta in April. 29 of us in total. Her patience, attention to detail, follow through, and stellar communication all lend itself to her steadfast passion for exemplary service!! From start to finish, she leveraged her knowledge and partners within the industry to ensure all desires were met while keeping a watchful eye on budget demands.Three of our guests were a day late arriving due to weather conditions. Instead of referring them to the customer service department to assist, she immediately stepped in and took charge.
Her professional presence and drive to exceed expectation is bar none, top notch! We HIGHLY recommend Janelle for land, sea or air travel! We have the utmost confidence in her masterful travel skills and execution to make certain no stone goes unturned. Flights were flawless (even when slight “turbulence” occurred with a few guests), thanks to HER!, and our resort was MAGNIFICENT!
THANK YOU Janelle!!

Janelle helped my Husband and I book our Honeymoon. We came to Janelle with a blank slate and she helped us create the most memorable experience. Janelle took the time to understand our likes and listened to what was important to us. She presented us with great options and built us our dream vacation. The entire process was very smooth and she was very responsible to all of our questions. Needless to say, we will be using Janelle again and recommending her to all of our friends and family!

Janelle was a pleasure to work with regarding all our cruise ship details. Everything from off ship excursions, special dinner reservations and hotel before we sailed. Once we were on the ship, we could relax and know everything was pre-planned and ready for us. I would highly recommend Janelle to anyone who is thinking of going on a cruise.

Wonderful trip, beautiful islands, Dunn's River Falls in Ocho Rios was the best! Food and beverage package is always a must, the dinning was everything I was looking for. A cruise is a very relaxing way to travel. The Norwegian Escape was a very nice ship, the crew were very friendly, and the ship was well kept. Not the most attractive ship I've been on, but nice! We will cruise again!!
