How do I book a trip with Inertia Tours?

The process to book a trip is very easy, as there are several ways to accomplish this depending on what you are most comfortable with. At Inertia, we know some people want to talk to a real person, while others prefer to thoughtfully write their questions to us. Either method is perfectly fine with us.

#1 – The Old Skool Method – Call Us

Simply call toll free 800.821.2176 & listen to the options depending on what trip you’d like to take, and our VoIP phone system will connect you to the next available trip specialist.

We always, and we mean always – will provide you with a Texas-friendly hello, free advice (sometimes you will book with us, sometimes that fit won’t be perfect, no worries), and we will walk you through the process. Our phone specialists are non-judgmental and bluntly honest, so feel free to talk freely when you do call about your real questions.

It is always helpful if you are in front of a computer with internet access – even if you don’t know how to use the internet or websites well, our Reps will walk you through it to view hotel & condo pictures, read reviews, and see destination maps so you can see where things are located.

It is helpful when you call that you have some idea to answer at least a portion of these questions below as it will help our Reps pair you with the ideal spring break or winter break vacation:

  • Per person trip cost you have in mind (your budget)
  • Your preferred week of travel
  • The approximate number of people that might want to go
  • Your preferred destination choice (or, at least tell us what is most important for you & your friends for destinations – having more than one choice is a smart move as a consumer)
  • The closest airport if you plan on getting a flight

Sometimes, the oldest way is the best way to book a trip with us, as our Reps can ask lots of pertinent, effective questions to really mine from you your specific wants & needs. We want to get you the best possible trip.

Our veteran Reps can take your credit card information right over the phone, and have your trip booked in less than five minutes.

 

#2 – The Writers Way – Email Us

Our General Email should you want to contact us is tripinfo@inertiatours.com. Don’t worry about it going to the right person or department, we’ll direct it internally within our Company from this General Email.

It is helpful in your email if you can answer these questions right away as well, as we’ll undoubtedly email you back to inquire with this list if you do not:

  • Per person trip cost you have in mind (your budget)
  • Your preferred week of travel
  • The approximate number of people that might want to go
  • Your preferred destination choice (or, at least tell us what is most important for you & your friends for destinations – having more than one choice is a smart move as a consumer)
  • The closest airport if you plan on getting a flight

If you just have a quick question about something specific, shoot away. You’ll get a super quick response with a specific contact person at our Company that you can email, or do a follow up call with. You won’t get handed off nor transferred to India or the Philippines. Our Reps sit in our office on South Padre Island, Texas.

It is totally possible to book your entire vacation via email with one of our Reps and never actually speak to a live person, if you so desire. We’re here to help.  800 821 2176

#3 – Self Service – Our Website

Did you know that travel is the 3rd most common way the internet is utilized as a means of conducting business? It is. At Inertia Tours, we’ve tried to design & develop a very well organized, insightful, and helpful website possible.

To book or price at trip on our website, click the Price a Trip icon on the top tool bar of this page.

This option is what we would call the traditional travel model to book your student vacation package. When you click price a trip, you will enter in by selecting via the drop down boxes the destination you’d like to go to, the week of travel, the number of people you have, and your desired transportation method (air, bus, or hotel/condo only).

The system will then “pull” you through so you can view different hotel options, read general descriptions & view photos, and finally, click on your desired hotel choice.

Finally, the system will ask you to place down your initial down payment deposit. Our reservation system will generate a Booking Number, coupled with a login password that you and your friends can utilize to view your account, make payments on your account, and more.

It is important to know that our system allows you to use one, two, or multiple credit cards to make payments on your trip (i.e..each person can use their own credit card to make their own payments on their own account).

The flaw to using the traditional travel model is that you do need to either investigate or dig around our site to figure out where you want to travel to as far as a destination. Remember, whichever method you choose, our system is fully capable of booking your trip entirely online and never speaking to a real person if you so desire.
