As a Cruise and Travel specialist, Debra Barnett is enthusiastic about helping people to plan their travel by drawing on her own experiences including trips to Australia, Europe, South East Asia and the Mediterranean.
Not everybody travels the same way so to make the most of different budgets and requirements, Debra has deliberately gone out of her way to experience different modes of transport including ocean cruising, river cruising, coach and back road touring. Debra’s detailed understanding of the options available is key to ensuring she meets each individual customer’s expectations.
It’s not always about getting the cheapest deal for her customers, it’s about achieving the best possible outcome. These days more than ever a travel consultant needs to do more than just make a booking. Safety is uppermost in people’s minds so arranging travel insurance, providing clear concise itineraries and personally identifying specific areas of interest goes a long way towards providing customers with a hassle-free travel outcome from start to finish.
Debra works with a wide range of wholesalers and is part of ‘The Travel Brokers,’ a group of travel consultants who meet regularly to swap information and updates with airlines, destination operators and accommodation suppliers.
Debra Barnett herself is TAANZ bonded and accredited to IATA through the Travel Brokers. She is also a member of the Cruise Line Industry Association (CLIA) and has a Level 4 Certificate in Travel and Tourism.
