Meet Renee
(The Heart Behind the Journey)
Renee Nelson is one of Ready Jet Go Travels’ passionate travel advisors, and a self-proclaimed Cruising Queen!
Her love for the sea began with her first cruise in 2013, and since then, she’s sailed on 23 cruises across six cruise lines, with more already on the horizon. Whether she’s aboard a Carnival ship, exploring with MSC, or discovering a new cruise line, Renee finds joy in the rhythm of the waves and the excitement of discovering a new port. There’s simply nothing quite like being in the middle of the ocean!
Beyond her cruise expertise, Renee is also a big Disney fan, having visited Walt Disney World more than ten times, with another trip planned for Fall 2026. She loves recreating that Disney magic for families, helping them experience the same wonder she’s felt time and again.
Her specialties include ocean cruises, Walt Disney World vacations, U.S. getaways, and beach escapes, from Panama City Beach to the Florida Keys and Aruba, her all-time favorite Caribbean destination.
When she’s not planning dream vacations, Renee is a proud mom and a dedicated high school teacher, soon celebrating 29 years in education. She began her travel career in January 2023, initially to support her love for cruising, and quickly found her second calling in helping others create unforgettable journeys.
