Travel Advisor — Trip Contingency Planning
The parent scenario-planning builds several plausible futures and a response to each. Travel disruption (weather, strike, supplier default, advisory, illness) is a scenario problem: the advisor's value is having the rebooking/refund path ready before it's needed.

How it works
Build 3–4 scenarios and a pre-staged response: - Weather/force-majeure cancellation → rebooking + insurance claim path. - Supplier default/insolvency → protected-booking (ARC/IATA, card chargeback, insurance). - Travel advisory / entry-rule change → reroute or postpone. - Medical / missed-connection → assistance line + coverage. For each: who the advisor calls, what the client is owed, what's documented.
When to use it
- building a complex/high-value itinerary
- multi-supplier or international trip
- hurricane/advisory season
- client asks 'what if something goes wrong?'
- designing a group/FIT trip
When not to use it
single refundable booking with trivial exposure.
