22.01.2022 TRAVEL INSURANCE We understand some of you have concerns about your holidays, due to the recent outbreak of COVID-19. We encourage you to not base any decisions purely on current media/social media reporting.... To make a logical and informed decision, this needs to be done with a level head and based on credible/factual information. One of the first ports of call should be ensuring you have adequate travel insurance in place. Make sure you speak to us about Cover-Mores "Cancel for Any Reason" travel insurance policy. If you purchase this insurance at the time of booking, you can cancel your holiday, and be covered for up to $10,000*, for ANY reason! This will give you the peace of mind you need to continue with your holiday planning. (*T&Cs apply). #covermore #cancelforanyreason #businessasusual

22.01.2022 And that now completes the full box set #letstravel #seeaustralia

08.01.2022 To Our Valued Clients: We want to reassure you that we are working as fast as we can through our very long list of active bookings and are doing our best to ensure a positive outcome for our clients. We are working through bookings in date order and are still experiencing very long delays to receive information. Many airlines, tour companies etc are no longer taking calls and only offer email communication with very slow turnarounds. Information and policies are changing da...ily, if not hourly, which makes it very hard to keep everyone up to date. Many of the current policies only include people travelling up to approx 31 May, so these are the only bookings we are currently working on. As June/July approaches, or when policies are provided for people travelling beyond this time, we will then be in contact with you. In the meantime, we ask you to sit tight and be patient, as clients departing from now till 31 May are our priority. Our staff are doing an amazing job (considering job satisfaction is currently not at a very high level!). It is a difficult time for everyone and we thank you all for the amazing support and patience you have shown us thus far. Tim, Alby, Maria and Sarah Helloworld Travel Geelong Central

07.01.2022 If you can spare 2 minutes, heres a video that gives an insight into the hardships our industry is currently facing. For the last 6 months, our agency has been working hard dealing with approximately 223 cancelled bookings. To put this into perspective, a normal year would see us cancel approx 5 bookings. Most of these bookings contain multiple components such as air, hotels, tours, cruises, car hire etc, which takes many hours and countless emails/phone calls to undo th...e hard work we previously did during the initial booking process. The slow refund turnaround from suppliers has only added to our frustration and stress. Unfortunately, cancelling bookings does not produce any income and we have been left with no new product to sell, due to border closures. In short, 100% of our income has been taken from us since the pandemic hit. This worldwide pandemic has simply decimated our industry. We are calling on the Federal Government to fund the Travel Agent Support Package to help keep our industry alive. Please help by sharing our story, which unfortunately often gets overlooked by other industries who are also battling tough times. #lovemytravelagent

07.01.2022 T R A V E L B A N K It was great to get out of the office today and catch with up with our friends at Prokick Australia, to hand over a donation of $1219. Nathan and Johnny from Prokick run a fantastic program for aspiring young punters to earn sporting scholarships within the American college system ... We are proud to support this program and see the dreams of many young Australians come to fruition, with some even progressing all the way through to the NFL. If your club, group, organization or school would also like to earn easy $$ and benefit from our Travelbank program, please contact Tim: 5223 2788 It is a very simple process.....if you support us....we support you #shoplocal #dontbookonline #givingback #helloworldtravelgeelongcentral #sinkthebootintoit

06.01.2022 Amended Office Access Please note that due to the current COVID-19 situation, and to comply with Government regulations, our office doors will remain closed until further notice. While our doors remain closed, please be assured that our staff are working very hard behind the scenes (in the office and remotely) to assist our valued clients with re-accommodating their current bookings.... We are currently working with bookings departing up to 30 June 2020, as this when most of our travel partners have policies in place to waiver change fees, offer travel credits etc. If you are departing from 1 July 2020, we ask for your patience and we will begin working on these bookings once our travel partners have policies in place for departures after 1 July 2020, and the situation becomes clearer. It is a frustrating time for all of us, as we are essentially undoing all of the hard work we have done over the last 6-10 months, and our travel partners are proving hard to contact for reliable information/policies. If you need to contact our office, please feel free to call 5223 2788 (9am 5pm, Mon Fri) or email on the below details, and we will be able to assist. We will be operating with limited staff during this time, so please dont be alarmed if our reply times are longer than usual. Please be assured your bookings are safe and we are doing our best to reach out to those of you who are departing in the near future. Thanks again for the patience you have all shown during this challenging situation and we cant wait to welcome you all back into the office very soon!
