Holiday trips Kristina has priced
A few of the real holiday prices she found on October 1, 2026, with flights and transfers included.
Prices move fast. Resort and airline prices change daily, sometimes by the hour, and rooms and seats go first come, first served. This page isn’t updated in real time, so Kristina confirms today’s price before anything is booked.
Flights are priced from Chicago (ORD). We use O’Hare as a middle-of-the-country benchmark. From your home airport the same trip may come in a little lower or a little higher.

How a trip happens
One person from your first email to the flight home.
-
You email Kristina
Where you'd like to go, roughly when, who's coming and a ballpark budget. A few lines is plenty.
-
She does the searching
She compares resorts, packages and flights across the travel companies she works with, then sends you the options that fit.
-
You choose, she books
Nothing is booked until you say yes. You pay the travel company, never Kristina.
-
You go. She's a message away.
“Kristina stayed in touch during the trip and checked on us to make sure everything was going well.” Sergey, Puerto Vallarta
What it costs you: nothing.
Kristina never charges a planning fee. Resorts, tour operators and cruise lines pay her a commission when you book, so her help is free to you.
In Kristina’s experience you pay the same package price as booking it yourself, and often less. Here’s how travel advisors get paid.
She replies within 24 hours, Monday to Friday.
Meet Kristina
Kristina Zhuravel is an independent travel advisor based in Illinois. She plans trips for couples, solo travelers and families all over the US.
She has spent twenty years traveling herself: across most of the US, much of South America and Europe, and most of the Mexican and Caribbean coast she books today. She isn't tied to one resort brand, so she books whatever works best for you.

Kristina helped us find the perfect hotel and direct flights at a very affordable price. Everything was organized so well, and we had absolutely no issues during our trip.
She guided us through the entire process, helped us choose a great option, and made everything simple and stress-free.
Kristina provided outstanding service in planning our upcoming cruise, particularly in helping us select a quiet cabin location.
Planning is free. Nothing is booked until you say yes.
Where Kristina sends people

Questions people ask first
Do you charge a planning fee?
No, never. Resorts, tour operators and cruise lines pay Kristina a commission when you book, so her help costs you nothing.
Will I pay more than booking it myself?
Typically not. In Kristina’s experience you pay the same package price you would see booking it yourself, and often less, because she compares packages across travel companies instead of searching one website.
Do you only plan trips for people in Illinois?
No. Kristina is based in Illinois and plans trips for travelers all over the US, by email and phone.
What if something goes wrong while we're away?
You contact Kristina. A delayed flight, a transfer that doesn't show, a room mix-up: she takes it up directly with the travel company, so you are not sorting it out alone.
How soon will I hear back?
Within 24 hours, Monday to Friday. Weekends by appointment.
Worth reading before you book
-
How travel advisors get paid, and whether it costs you more
Commission or planning fee, which perks are worth it, and an honest answer on price.
-
All-inclusive resorts with no single supplement
Which resorts waive it, when those offers appear, and how to stop paying almost double for one room.
-
Is a cruise drink package worth it?
Real costs, who actually saves money, and the cruise line rules nobody mentions.
Tell Kristina where you want to go.
A few lines about the trip is enough. She replies within 24 hours, and planning never costs you anything.
