Is the Perfect Honeymoon possible, despite time constraints? Like it or not, time constraints can wreak havoc on honeymoon choices.
Time can become a major problem when choosing a honeymoon in several different ways:
Time limitations cutting a trip short
None of us have unlimited time that we can be away. We all have responsibilities to work and family that, while they can be delayed for a period of time, can’t be ignored forever. This constraint can play a role in the honeymoon decision-making process. Inexperienced travelers can in fact find it overwhelming. How much time should be allocated for travel? How many days of leisure will be boring? Is it better to spend less time traveling and more time actually “on vacation?”
As overwhelming as this time factor can appear, there is a simple solution for it – which I outline below.
Seasonal time factors for a honeymoon
We all have the friend who got an amazing discounted rate for their tropical vacation, and who then arrived to discover the beaches were uninhabitable because it was jellyfish season. The time of year can affect whether your honeymoon is filled with blissfully warm days and cool evenings, or whether it feels like you are visiting hell on earth. An experienced travel agent will help you determine whether your vacation will be heaven or hell, based on seasonal factors.
Travel time ruining a honeymoon
Although I touched on this earlier, it is important to decide in advance how much time you and your new spouse are willing to devote to the travel time needed to get to your destination. Flight accommodations are rarely comfortable for a long haul. You have to decide whether a visit to a new location is worth being limited to small spaces and airport inconveniences for a period of 12 to 18 hours.
Time problems can be solved
As overwhelming as the time factor can seem to be when planning your honeymoon, it’s not the most important factor to solve. If, instead, you look at and answer a few other key questions, the time factors become virtually nonexistent.
Answer these questions and gain enough time for the perfect honeymoon
What is the main thing you’d like to achieve on your honeymoon?
What emotions would you like your honeymoon vacation to elicit?
How much interaction do you want to have with other people?
Do you want to party or be by yourselves?
When you think about a honeymoon, do you picture more relaxation, activity, or excitement?
Once these questions are answered, make sure you ask them of your fiance.
The secret to time and money for vacation
Now notice that all of the above desires can be fulfilled independently of the time and money spent on the vacation. As long as you have clearly named what is important to you for your honeymoon, an experienced travel agent can help you find a vacation that matches your desires perfectly. The secret is to realize that location, time and money are arbitrary – that the product of the vacation is what you are going for.
