Why I Do This
I am Angel Hu — a Certified Disney & Royal Caribbean Travel Planner based on the East Coast. I specialize in Disney Cruise Line, Disney Parks, Royal Caribbean, and Universal vacation planning for families.
Before I was an advisor, I was just a mom trying to figure out how to give my kids the trip of their lives without exhausting myself in the process. The first time I took them on a Disney Cruise, something changed.
"I remember walking onto the ship and feeling the mental load of parenting just lift. My kids were swept up in the magic from the moment they announced our family's name. I sat by the adult pool. I read a book. That had not happened on a family vacation in years."
That experience is what turned me into an advisor. I wanted to help other families get there — without having to piece it all together on their own.
My Family
I am a mom of two. My kids have been part of the reason I fell so deeply into this work — I have navigated these trips with them at different ages and stages, and I understand the real-life logistics that come with family travel. One of my children is on the autism spectrum. As an Autism Mama, I understand why sensory considerations, routines, transitions, breaks, and flexibility can matter on vacation. I bring that perspective to our conversations while recognizing that every child and family is different — and that suppliers like Disney determine what accommodations they can confirm.
How I Work
One of the great things about working with a travel advisor is that I can be as involved — or as hands-off — as you'd like. Some clients prefer me to handle every detail, while others like to manage most things themselves and simply have me available as a resource when needed.
I am a solo advisor, not part of a call center. When you work with me, you have one dedicated contact for planning and reservation questions. I will know your booking, your family, and your timeline, and for matters I can handle on your behalf, I can make the supplier calls and sit through the hold times so you don't have to.
I work virtually with families all over the country. I am reachable by phone, text, and email. My Disney, Universal, and Royal Caribbean training — supported through my affiliation with Waves & Wonder Travel, an independent host agency — helps me explain the choices, terminology, and planning requirements that can otherwise feel confusing. Alongside that training, I bring my own travel experience and a parent's perspective on comfort, convenience, and pacing.
My Planning Philosophy
My recommendations start with what makes sense for you, not simply what is most expensive or most popular. I help you weigh the benefits, limitations, and tradeoffs. If a Disney Cruise is not the right fit for your family this year — because of budget, ages, or what you are actually looking for — I will tell you that and help you find something that makes more sense. My goal is for you to come home from a trip feeling like it was exactly right.
You can absolutely book a trip yourself. Working with me means you don't have to figure out every detail or manage the entire process on your own. You're trusting me with more than a reservation — you're trusting me with your family's vacation, and I take that seriously.
Waves & Wonder Travel
I am an independent advisor affiliated with Waves & Wonder Travel. Travel with Hu is my personal brand. Bookings I make are handled through my affiliation with Waves & Wonder, which gives me access to travel advisor booking portals and agent support channels. Those tools don't guarantee instant service or special treatment, but they're part of the behind-the-scenes work you don't have to figure out yourself. Any applicable planning or service fees will be clearly explained before you agree to the services they cover, so you know what to expect before that work begins.
