Travel - Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What time should I arrive at the airport?

A: The amount of time needed to complete all check-in requirements varies depending on your itinerary.

Q: When can I check in for my return flight?

A: Most airlines allows you to check in for your return flight, once your outbound flight arrives and you are within 24 hours of your flight.

Q: Why do all my friends keep telling me to try a cruise?

A: Cruising has become one of the more popular vacation activities - and for good reason. You'll have the chance to visit a variety of destinations, without spending a lot of time in airports or in the car. While cruising on to your next destination, you'll enjoy fine dining, entertainment, informational talks on the destination, shopping, spa service, and more! You also pre-pay most of your expenses which allows great peace of mind.
 
Q: What's not included?

A:Drinks, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic, spa services, and some contests or special activities, such as golfing, are often not included. Tipping is additional on most cruises. Transportation to and from the airport is likely additional if you haven't purchased your airfare from the cruise line. Activities and meals while in port are not included (although you can always eat on the ship). Of course, you decide for yourself how much you spend at the casino! Your Witte Travel agent can tell you what is and isn't included on your cruise vacation.
 
Q: We'd like to take our kids - but we need a vacation, too!

A: Cruising is perfect for you - your agent can show you different cruise lines that cater to families. They have age-appropriate clubs, where your kids can join with other children their age in a variety of activities - leaving you free to sit peacefully in the sun or participate in activities yourself! Some cruise lines offer evening activities as well, leaving you free to dance the night away or enjoy a moonlit stroll. Most cruise lines offer in-room babysitting for a fee. The choices are endless, depending on the cruise line, you and your family are free to pick what activities you'd like to do together, and when you'd all like to do your own thing!

Q: How can I get the best deal when I book a cruise?

A: To manage their inventory, most lines have cabins for sale at the lowest price on a first-come, first-served basis. And very often, you can get a guarantee that if the price goes down later on, your price goes down too. So when you've found the right cruise, don't delay - make your reservations.
