Why book group travel in advance

You are probably used to shopping for your own trips and booking them within 60 days of departure. And there your agent tells you, that for your wedding, it will be necessary to take as much advance as possible. But why?

Here are some advantages to book in advance your group trip even if you want to go more than 14 months.

You have a wedding to plan with your wedding specialist. It’s no longer a trivial last-minute trip. A wedding is ready !! Especially since he has a whole process behind your marriage. You must contact the hotel for ceremonial availability during your week of travel. The longer you wait, the less availability he will have with hoteliers. And this more frequently in Mexico or the Dominican Republic. It’s not just the Canadians who get married, there’s a whole world pool getting married. So the more you book in advance, the more certain you will be getting the date and time you want to have for your dream ceremony.

The advantage of booking in advance your ceremonial day, is undoubtedly the possibilities to obtain the private places of your choice. Such as for your private dinner or your late-night “Party”. Because some hotels can do up to 4 wedding a day. Whew, it’s a think well! If you are certain of your places from the beginning of the booking with your wedding specialist, book them as soon as possible. So you could sleep on your two ears !!

On the travel side, it’s obvious that if you know how many people you will be around, it’s important to book that number of seats as quickly as possible. Rarely there are more than 30 seats on tour operators’ flights within 90 days of departure. If you have obtained a group quote even if the prices are not released on the internet, it is because you are the first to take seats on the plane. So you are sure to have ample seats for your entire group.

By booking in advance, you will get the desired room categories. For example, if you dream of a particular category, it will be possible to book it right away when you book. If you wait too much, this category may no longer be available with your tour operator. Higher categories are less numerous than standard categories. Do not get fooled!

You will get a better price by booking in advance. And if this is not the case, tour operators will offer you a unique protection on the prices posted online. Obviously, certain conditions apply.
