Frequently Asked Questions

---

Simple bookings such as accommodations or airport transfers are FREE. Whether you book through us or choose to book via an online self-booking tool, the partner pays out the commission.   

If your trip requires more detail and custom planning, we would have a planning fee that varies depending on the complexity of the trip. 

Booking with The DANIEL Konnection means you'll get the highest touch, personalized experience possible. We get to know our clients likes, dislikes, preferences - and that makes us uniquely qualified to deliver the best experience for you. 

Our relationships with our partners mean that we can quickly and effectively address any issues or concerns that may arise during your trip and resolve them in real time. For instance, if your flight is delayed, I can update your airport pick up, adjust the time of your tour, and make sure you have a welcome drink waiting on arrival. 

The beauty of working with The DANIEL Konnection is that you can be as involved in the planning as much or as little as you'd like. If you want to do the legwork and be more involved - no problem! You can still do the research and come to us when you're ready to do the actual booking. We can add on the finishing touches (access to the upgrade, the free breakfast, or the rooms that adjoin) and make sure you're getting the best value. 

We have thousands of relationships with hotels and partners that allow us to secure the BEST experience for our clients- getting you priority room upgrades, preferred rates, even spa credits.

Plus, The DANIEL Konnection is apart of an exclusive community with thousands of expert advisors. So, you're getting our expertise AND the expertise of every single Travel Advisor in our network. 

Yes, we know credit card travel perk programs offer things like $200 resort credits and free breakfast. However,  booking with us means you're getting all of the same perks, but you're prioritized for room upgrades before other customers.

Why?

Because the travel industry is all about relationships and ours go deep. Our team has decades of experience within the industry and during that time we’ve built meaningful relationships with hotels around the world (4,500+ to be exact). And it doesn’t stop at upgrades. We are part of nearly every major preferred partner program including Four Seasons Preferred, Hilton Impresario, Hyatt Privé, IHG Luxury and Lifestyle and Virtuoso Travel.

Why does this matter?

Well, preferred partnerships aren't easy to get - these are selective, invitation-only programs cultivated by hotels to reward agencies who deliver consistent, high-quality clientele. 

What does this mean for you? 

Beyond getting priority ahead of other customers for room upgrades, when you book a hotel through The DANIEL Konnection, you ll be flagged as a VIP guests prior to your arrival. Cue bespoke welcome amenities, hyper-personalized attention - and maybe even your favorite

slice of cake from that little local bakery waiting in your room at turn down.  ;-) 

Working with The DANIEL Konnection  isn't a discount service, it's a value-added service. We will always work with hotel partners to get you the best rates AND the best experience possible.

You might be able to find the cheapest room possible on Google or booking platforms, but sometimes what might look like the cheapest rate is often not including taxes and fees that show up later in the booking. By working with us, you'll have insight into all of these things. 

Also, due to our relationship with our partners, alot of the time we are able to  flag you as a preferred VIP guest with the hotel directly which can unlock exclusive perks.
