Travel Advisor from Meriden, Connecticut

Hello!

I’m Melanie Frodel

My love for travel began with my first visit to Disney as a child with my mom. Since then, I’ve created new memories with my own family, extended family and friends. It may have begun with Disney, but it has expanded beyond to Universal Studios, and Cruising. I’ve lived in Connecticut all my life and hope to move to Florida one day.  

After High School, I attended the International Air and Hospitality Academy in Vancouver, Washington. I went on to work in the corporate world as a Senior Administrative Assistant for many years. As I was doing travel arrangements for executives, I wanted to be organizing fun destinations where I knew people would have long-lasting memories. 

Beyond Disney, we also love cruising. It was a vacation where everyone was happy. Cruising has so many options on board you can’t get bored. There was something for everyone. 

As a Travel Advisor my intentions are to try something different each time. Whether it’s staying at a new hotel, visiting the newest park attraction or one of the many fine dining restaurants, I want to see it all and take in as much as possible.

Thank you Melanie!

Melanie helped our family enjoy an amazing trip to Orlando to visit Universal Studios. She made what might have otherwise been an intimidating process run smoothly and seamlessly, and all her recommendations were great! Our family vacation was a blast, and we’d do it again in a heartbeat.

Easiest trip to book

I highly recommend reaching out to Melanie when planning a trip to Disney. She is extremely knowledgeable about Disney (from A-Z) and is very patient when it came to my 100 questions. She will help plan what works for you and your family and has given us great recommendations on where to stay and eat. I will be contacting Melanie again for future plans.

Jaime

WDW Vacation

The vacation was handled very expertly. My agent had knowledge of where we stayed in Orlando and what parks were available. The restaurants suggested were wonderful and so were my accommodations. I also got some special deals through my agent. She seemed very knowledgeable, and I would certainly use Living with the magic vacations in the future.
