Colleen Alsberg from the Fox World Group Department took the helm on Saturday. A quick update of Rose in Punta Cana came first, as she was having a great time and very ready to back on the road. Black Friday sales come to mind after Thanksgiving, so the gift of travel was discussed, Whether you are ready to purchase a vacation for someone or get gift certificates for future use, both are great options. We discussed what the “magic” is that a first-time traveler will experience at Disney and also why it’s a great time for “experienced” Disney lovers to go there now. Also on topic was Rose’s exciting new group vacation to Antarctica in 2022 and a preview of our new Grand Hawaii group traveling in February 2022.
