											Although I love pumpkin spice and 
											hot apple cider, I’m not a big fan 
											of Fall. Maybe it is a carry-over 
											from being a kid, when summer was 
											sadly over and it was back to 
											school… In spite of the fact that I 
											loved school. 
											 | 
										 
									 
									
									
										
											| 
											 
											
											Now I just try to appreciate the 
											beauty of each season. I appreciate 
											getting up each day and doing the 
											things I love.  
											 | 
										 
									 
									
									
										
											| 
											 
											Capturing a few photos of the 
											beautiful Fall colours is a bonus!

											At the KGNV, the Altitude Club 
											Junior Swim-Out Suite is the most 
											requested room category. It has a 
											semi-private pool where comfort 
											meets tranquility.

											There's nothing better than a 
											tropical destination to relax and 
											recharge with the best company...

											One of the most frequent questions I 
											get from agents is: Should we sell 
											our clients the upgrade to Elite (Mazatlan) 
											or Platinum (Riviera 
											Maya) all-inclusive plans? 
											
											
											  
											
											
											My answer short is always 
											Yes. Of course all clients 
											have budgets to work within, but as 
											long as you present the adventages 
											of the upsell programs, you have 
											done your job.. 
											 | 
										 
									 
									
									
										
											| 
											 
											
											There are many advantages of the 
											Elite (Mazatlan) and Platinum 
											(Riviera Maya) options, but here are 
											a few of my favourites. 
											
											  
											
											
											With the Elite 
											plan at 
											the El Cid Resorts in Mazatlan, 
											guests get to check in at the Elite 
											lounges, have access to the 
											adults-only pool (El Moro), have a 
											guaranteed OV, and have full access 
											to all 4 resorts. They also have no 
											surcharges on some of the higher end 
											menu items. 
											 | 
										 
									 
									
									
										
											| 
											 
											
											With the Platinum 
											plan at 
											the El Cid Resorts in the Riviera 
											Maya (Puerto Morales), guests get to 
											check in at the Platinum lounges, 
											have a guaranteed OV (or sunset view 
											– Ventus Ha’) room, the best 
											amenities, daily room aroma therapy 
											and great butler service.

											Well, October seems to be tradeshow 
											season, especially in western 
											Canada. Over the next few weeks, you 
											will see Sonia or me at the 
											following shows: 
											
											
											 
											
											
											10/3 Cabo, Vancouver 
											
											
											10/4 Cabo, Calgary 
											
											
											10/10 Puerto Vallarta, Burnaby 
											
											
											10/11 Puerto Vallarta, Edmonton

											sold out and not accepting 
											additional agent registrations. I 
											hope you signed up and I’m looking 
											forward to seeing many of you soon!
