Travel Planning Virtual Assistant

I need a detail-oriented virtual assistant to take full ownership of my upcoming trips. Your main focus will be travel planning and coordination, including:

• Researching destinations that fit my brief (weather, visa rules, costs, activities)
• Lining up flight options on my preferred airlines first, then alternative carriers if schedules or prices work better
• Comparing hotels and short-stay options, flagging loyalty perks when possible
• Building an easy-to-read itinerary that shows dates, confirmation numbers, contact details, and links in one place
• Securing all bookings once I approve, then emailing me the receipts and updating the live itinerary document

Please be comfortable using tools like Google Flights, Skyscanner, Expedia, Booking.com or similar, and be able to track everything in Google Sheets or Excel. Strong written English is essential; I want concise status updates and quick responses if plans change.

Deliverables will be:
1. A shortlist of flight and hotel options with pros/cons and pricing
2. A finalized itinerary (PDF + shared live doc)
3. Booking confirmations forwarded to my inbox and stored in the shared folder

If you have bandwidth for occasional light admin duties—such as organizing receipts or scheduling calls—let me know, but the travel side is the priority. I’m ready to begin as soon as I find the right assistant, and I’m happy to work per trip or on an ongoing basis depending on how smoothly things run.
