Signature Integrated Travel Systems says that when it comes
to travel complaints by parents, the most common denominator is the kids.
Parents will often feel like their kids ruined their vacation. The parents
spent so much time dealing with kids that were complaining, that they never had
the time they wanted to relax. This is a common problem that can be solved with
a few simple tips.
· Include the kids in planning a vacation. If they
have a say in the things they are going to do, they may complain a little less.
·
Plan for some adult time. There are many places
that offer babysitting services for travelers so the parents can have some time
to enjoy their vacation. Hotels and cruise ships along with resorts often offer
these services for their guests.
·
Make sure you choose activities that are kid
friendly. If an activity will not entertain a child, they will get quickly
bored and boredom leads to complaints.
·
Plan for long delays when traveling. Hours spent
in a car or in an airport are a classic reason kids will complain. If you have
things for the kids to do during these delays, it will help.
Signature Integrated Travel Systems advice family
vacationers to think like a kid. Many times the parents will think it is the
kids that are complaining, when it is the parents who are complaining. A parent
should channel their inner child so they can enjoy the activities that they
have chosen for their kids. There is nothing wrong with an adult acting like a
kid at times, especially when they are on vacation suggest the members of Complaints
Management.
