Who is the Pink Ear Pixie?
Hello!
My name is Amanda and I am the owner of Pixie and Pirate Destinations, LLC.

Whether you want to have lunch in Cinderella’s castle at Walt Disney World in Florida or explore the open seas aboard the Disney Magic sailing to Mexico, I am here to assist you every step of the way.
My love for Disney began when I was a young child and grew into what it is today. I have shared my joy with my own family and made many wonderful memories that my children will always remember. Now I hope to help other moms and dads and grandmas and grandpas plan their dream vacations that they can share with their families.
A few of the things I will assist you with as your personal Disney vacation planner are - helping you choose the perfect resort, making your dining reservations and even provide you with a personal daily itinerary that will allow you to make the most of your Walt Disney World vacation. Best of all I am your go-to person for any questions regarding your upcoming vacation.
If you are planning a cruise aboard one of Disney's ships, I will help you choose the stateroom that works best for your family and advise you on other great things to do and see during your time on board the beautiful, prestigious ships Disney offers, including awesome shore excursions such as swimming with dolphins in Grand Cayman or zip lining in Cozumel.
I am here to help answer ALL of your Disney vacation questions and take out the stress of vacation planning. And this costs you NOTHING! My services are 100% free to you.
I would love to help you plan a wonderful vacation with your family! See more FAQs below. Or more about my Disney planning services.

Frequently Asked Questions about what I offer:
Why are your services free?
I never charge my clients a dime. I am paid commission from the companies I book vacations with - Disney, Carnival Cruise Lines, Norwegian Cruise Lines, etc. You will pay the same amount of money booking a trip with me as you would if you booked it directly through the company itself. And sometimes I am able to find a bit better deal because of the special promotions that are available.
I work strictly off of commission and I hope that if you decide to book a vacation you will choose to book your vacation with me. Please keep this in mind if I do a lot of research on a vacation for you. I cannot stress this enough as I have worked very, very hard for some clients who have decided to book directly with Disney. While I understand it is a personal decision, please be considerate of my time as I am not paid hourly - I do not get paid until AFTER my clients travel. If you are looking for help with a Disney vacation and intend to book directly with Disney after I spend hours working on personalizing your vacation, I would appreciate it if you would reconsider - or consider a transfer, details below.
Are you a travel agent?
The simple answer is yes, but I prefer to call myself a vacation planner or Disney specialist. I work for a legitimate travel agency that is certified with CLIA. I am an "independent contractor" of sorts. And I work directly out of my home.
Why should I book my vacation with you?
First of all, I honestly love my clients. You can ask any of them and they'll tell you that I am here for you any time you have a question or concern. I work "with" you in planning your vacation. I may suggest certain avenues but if you do not want to take my advice that's okay! I will not be offended! I am here to help you, not tell you what to do. *See more specifics about what I can do for you.
What makes your services different?
I do my best to go above and beyond for my clients. I give all of my clients my phone number so you can call me when you need to. Once your vacation is booked I am here to continue to help. I also put together a "personalized" daily itinerary for each client. Your itinerary will not look like everyone else's as I put a lot of thought into what I recommend you do during each day. Overall I help you by being your go-to person whenever you need something.
How do I pay for my vacation?
Most of the vacations I book are Disney vacations, but I also book cruises, hotels, etc. With all of these vacations I personally NEVER charge your credit card. In order to put a deposit on a vacation I will need your credit card information. I use this to apply deposit/payment through the company I am booking your vacation with - whether it's Disney, Carnival Cruise Lines, Norwegian Cruise Lines, etc. You will never see a charge from me or my travel agency (Pixie and Pirate Destinations, LLC), only from the company with which you are vacationing.
Do you accept reservation transfers?
Yes. Most Disney World and Disney Cruise Line reservations are transferable. There are some exceptions - such as Disney Cruise Line will not allow transfers after payment in full, but Disney World will. For more information on reservation transfers please contact me via Pixie and Pirate Destinations. I am happy to assist you with a transferred reservation!
