Welcome to Straight Away Travel!
Meet the Straight Away Travel Team
Straight Away Travel is a nationwide team of experienced travel advisors who believe the best travel recommendations come from firsthand experience.
Our advisors are located throughout the United States and specialize in river cruises, ocean cruises, all-inclusive resorts, Europe, luxury travel, Disney & Universal vacations, destination weddings, honeymoons, groups and more.
Rather than expecting one travel advisor to know everything about every destination, Straight Away Travel has built a team of specialists. This allows us to connect our clients with an advisor who has the knowledge and experience best suited for the vacation they’re planning.
Founded in 2019 and headquartered in the Fort Mill/Tega Cay area outside Charlotte, North Carolina, Straight Away Travel serves travelers nationwide with personalized planning and support before, during and after their vacations.
