I am here for you

Many of you have been asking about your upcoming travel plans. I want to assist you with your questions, but first, a few words about more important matters.

We find ourselves in interesting times, where much of the normal functioning of our daily lives seems out of order. However, there are also a great many certainties. While we are all engaged in our various pursuits to earn a living and raise our families, we are also neighbors and friends. I want to say I am here for you. Things will at some point return to normal, we will get on with the routine we sometimes complain about but for which we are now a little nostalgic. Until then, know beyond being your “travel agent,” you and I are neighbors, friends and family. As we move through the next few weeks, be strong and maintain your conviction in those things that have always sustained you, whether that be your faith, your family your pets or your own sense of integrity. We will all get through this together.

Stay informed, but give yourself a break from the 24 hour news cycle. Here are a few good resources for information:

Coronavirus Information Center CDC
World Health Organization 
World Health Organization Q&A 
California Department of Health

Now, about those travel plans. Travel suppliers have all been modifying the cancellation policies to assist passengers, waiving fees and penalties for changes. If you had plans about which you have questions, email me at matt@matt.travel.
​
Here are a couple of articles about travel right now you may find informative:

Your travel insurance might now cover coronavirus
Delta, United, American broaden change fee waivers amid coronavirus concerns

A few of you have also inquired about future travel plans. Please reach out to me at any time to discuss and I will provide you with any information you need. As the travel industry regains momentum, there will no doubt be many great opportunities, we can discuss as you feel ready.

If there is anything I can do for you over the coming weeks, or if you just want to check in and talk, know I am here for you. We all want to practice a sound “social distancing” as the medical profession calls it, but that does not mean social disconnection. Stay informed and stay safe. If you need anything, I am just a phone call away.

Hang in there, Be strong. Take care of yourself and your loved ones, and wash your hands!
