Stephen Brunetta

About Myself

My name is Stephen Brunetta, and I’ve been a full-time travel agent since 2013. Originally from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, I moved to London, England in 2012 upon completing a BA in Geography at Brock University. After 2 years abroad rediscovering a passion for travel that was first ignited with a 2010 post-graduate trip through 10 European countries, I decided to make Vancouver, BC my home. Since then I’ve enjoyed helping family, close friends, and loyal clients fill their vacation time with travel extending to all corners of the globe. I began my career at Flight Centre Commercial Drive, then took on the Assistant Manager role which I held for 4.5 years at the Lonsdale location in North Vancouver before it closed due to COVID. Now business is done safely from the comfort of my mountain view home for the foreseeable future. But enough about me, let’s see what’s in it for you:

Client Benefits

- Professional Expertise: After 9+ years in the business, I’m capable of handling any tricky travel situation. From multi-stop fares, booking infants or pets, groups of 10+ people, Round The World fares, and now COVID tests, health forms, and vaccination requirements, I can guide us through any enquiry with ease.

- Value for Money: Protect your vacation dollars by booking your travel with a qualified agent. Whether it’s access to lower contracted airfares, hotel & car rental rates, or bundling air & land products together, your bottom line will look better so you can save money for the fun stuff in destination.

 - Personal Touch: It’s not the airline or car rental that will make your holiday memorable. It’s the insider tips and recommendations that can turn a good vacation into a great one. Ask me to suggest a restaurant, bar, or off the beaten path attraction that you might have missed out on.  

- High Service Level: Booking online can be easy, but a little negligence can end up being costly. Let me worry about confirming change, cancellation, and baggage rules, middle names, misconnections or schedule changes, checking for visa requirements and gathering your electronic travel documents.

- Peace of Mind: Now more than ever, travel insurance is a vital part of any trip. With single or multi-trip premiums available based on your travel habits, I’ll make sure your health and your wallet are protected in case something unforeseen or unexpected happens after booking your holiday.

- Agent Advantages: Complimentary airfare hold for 1-3 days, break apart that cookie-cutter 7 night all-inclusive package to give you a city stopover in addition to your beach holiday, and a one stop shop to book all trip components (air/hotel/cruise/ tour/insurance/car rental/excursions/transfers) while you relax.

COVID-19

The coronavirus pandemic took significant toll on the travel industry, with health experts and politicians advising against non-essential travel. Keeping health & safety at the forefront, we're now able to resume international travel. With many lessons learned over the past 2+ years, I have confidently emerged as a more well versed independent agent who can advise and add value to your travel plans as we navigate the “new normal” together. I look forward to working with you in 2022 and beyond, thank you for visiting my page!
