Hello Leigh,
It is my pleasure to thank you for an EXCELLENT trip to Sweden! It was the "trip of a life time" for my parents, who are ages 79 and 81. It was 16 years since their previous visit which they assumed would be their last visit to Sweden. I had many challenges attempting to navigate security with one person in a wheelchair and another one who did not like the "disrobing process" of shoes, belts, jackets, beepers, phones, keys, coins, cameras, computers going in the gray bins at the airport. We were almost arrested when my mother tried to smuggle a jar of peanut butter in her carry on luggage. After I thoroughly examined the luggage, the peanut butter was smuggled in the last minute, hoping no one would notice. It could have easily been stowed away in a checked bag!! BUT ALAS, I had to negotiate with the airport security for my mother's freedom. :)
The Hampton Inn arrangements at the airport were a lifesaver! The airport shuttle was absolutely perfect. The shuttle was running every 30 minutes and greatly eased the process of navigating the ride to the airport and the return trip as well. The business class tickets that you suggested were filled with luxury and relaxation. We were treated like kings and queens. It was not as costly as first class but we received personal attention with every need being met. And believe me, there were plenty of needs during each of the two nine hour flights!!
My parents were so excited to meet their great-grandson and I soaked up every second of pleasure, basking in the presence of my daughter, son-in-law and gorgeous grandson. My parents continue to talk about their trip to Sweden every day. They carry photos every where they go. On a recent visit to the cardiologist with my dad, out came the photos and the story of the trip to Sweden spilled into the conversation with ease.
Thanks again, Leigh, for working with me to make this vacation so successful. Best Wishes and much continued success. Elayn Alterman, for Harriet and Berner, as well.

Leigh,
I just wanted to take a moment and thank you for all of your help planning our recent honeymoon. All of the options were so overwhelming but you took the time to find out exactly what we wanted and helped us decide what would be right for us. You absolutely knew what you were talking about because Negril was the perfect place for us! We had such an amazing time and truly enjoyed every moment!! The only advice I would give others is that at one restraunt at our hotel, pants were required for men and my husband did not bring pants so we had to go on a little adventure to town. It wasn't a big deal and just added to our little adventure!
We had a little trouble on our flight home - a generator went out on one of the engines and we had to go back Jamaica and ended up having to stay an extra night. I was so glad we had travel insurance at this point, but the airline took care of everything (they put us up in the Ritz Carlton for the night!) and we made it home the next day.
We are already looking forward to another trip to Jamaica in the future and making our wish list of places to visit. You can bet that we will be coming to you for your expertise on these trips as well! i honestly can't thank you enough!
Until Next Time!!!
