About
Every journey deserves someone looking out for you.
The most meaningful travel experiences don’t happen by accident. They come from asking the right questions, thinking through the details, and having someone who takes the time to understand what’s important to you before a single reservation is made.
Meet Your Travel Advisor
Hi, I’m Niya, the founder and travel strategist behind Fly Escapes.
I approach travel planning with curiosity, strategy, and care. My role is to take the time to understand what matters to you, help you evaluate your options, and guide you toward a journey that feels thoughtfully chosen from the very beginning.
A Different Approach to Travel Planning
Travel isn’t about checking destinations off a list.
It’s about celebrating life’s milestones, reconnecting with the people you love, discovering somewhere you’ve never imagined, or finally saying yes to the trip you’ve been putting off for years.
That’s why every planning process begins with a conversation. Before I recommend a destination, suggest a hotel, or design an itinerary, I want to understand what you’re hoping to experience. Every recommendation should be intentional because every traveler is different.
The Way I Think Shapes the Way I Plan
Thoughtful travel begins with thoughtful questions.
Long before I became a travel advisor, I built my career as an intelligence analyst. For nearly two decades, my work has centered on gathering information, evaluating options, identifying risks, and making thoughtful recommendations based on the details that matter most.
That same mindset shapes the way I approach travel planning today.
Rather than jumping to the first solution, I believe in asking better questions, exploring possibilities you may not have considered, and thinking several steps ahead so your journey feels seamless from beginning to end.
Luxury isn’t just about where you stay. It’s about traveling with confidence and ease because thoughtful attention has been given to the elements of the trip that matter most to you.
Why Fly Escapes Exists
I became the advisor I wish I’d had.
Before I ever planned travel professionally, I was a destination wedding bride.
Like so many travelers, I placed my trust in someone to help guide one of the most meaningful trips of my life. Instead, I found myself navigating far more of the planning process on my own than I ever expected.
That experience has never left me. In fact, it became the standard for how I show up for every client today.
I never want someone to feel the uncertainty I felt or question whether seeking the guidance of a travel professional was the right decision.
More Than Planning a Vacation
My role is to represent your interests throughout the journey.
I believe a travel advisor’s job extends far beyond making reservations.
My responsibility is to help you make informed decisions, explain the advantages and tradeoffs of your options, anticipate challenges before they become problems, and advocate for you throughout the planning process.
Whether we’re designing a once-in-a-lifetime itinerary or managing a booking you’ve already chosen, my goal is the same. I want you to feel supported, informed, and confident every step of the way.
What You Can Expect
A steady partner for every trip that matters.
Thoughtful Recommendations
Recommendations tailored to your priorities, travel style, and the experience you want to have, rather than simply what’s popular.
Honest Guidance
Clear explanations, practical advice, and thoughtful conversations that help you make confident decisions.
Representation
An advisor who advocates for your interests before, during, and after your journey.
A Long-Term Partnership
The goal isn’t simply planning one vacation. It’s becoming the travel advisor you trust for every meaningful journey still to come.
Every unforgettable journey should begin with a conversation.
Let’s start the conversation.
When you’re ready to move from inspiration to planning, I’d love to help you create a journey that lives up to everything you’ve imagined.
