Today we’d like to introduce you to Mable Bullock.
Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
I started planning travel back in 1996, my first group booking was on a cruise in Hawaii, and it was amazing and I enjoyed every bit of the organizing and planning until I said, hey why not make a start at a travel business. I went on to attend Lucas Travel School to get my certification, and the rest is history. I am now an Accredited Cruise Counselor (ACC) in which I plan to further my education and become an MCC (Master Cruise Counselor). I thoroughly enjoy traveling, especially cruises. I was formally Mable’s Travel, but now I am Magical Events And Travel, inspired by my daughter Brittney, who is rebranding my look. After Covid, I just wasn’t sure if I wanted to continue in the travel business because the travel industry took a really bad hit back then. But she convinced me to get back out there, so here I am. I do all travel for groups, families, and individuals. My goal is to continue providing first-class planning of travel and to make dreams a reality.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not, what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
Of course not, there were many times when I wanted to give up, and then I would get a call or a lead to organize a trip. With so many options to booking travel, many people prefer to do it themselves until us travel agents are trying to come up with new strategies to stay in the game.
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?
My business is planning and organizing travel, I’m full-service agent who specializes not only in cruises but all-inclusive resorts as well. I do travel planning for groups, organizations, families, and individuals. I am an experienced travel agent and an expert at finding low rates and helping clients secure the best travel deals according to their specific preferences. I want my clients to experience magical adventures in their travels
Do you have any memories from childhood that you can share with us?
It was visiting grandfather mountain in blowing rock NC. I loved going over to my grandmother house playing outside in the yard with my cousins

Excellent article! In today’s profit driven economy the human factor gets left out. Glad to see someone who not only look at business as only dollars and cents (which has its role) but genuinely care about the people she serves. Keep up the great work 👍

My experience using Mable Bullock as my travel agent was amazing! She planned a family cruise for my family back in 2018 & the entire process was easy, smooth, & most of all worth it! I’d book again or recommend Mable for anyone’s travel planning any day!

I’m so happy I find such attentive efficient travel agent! Mabel was communicative throughout the entire booking process so I didn’t have to worry about a thing. She took the stress out of planning a trip, and I’m looking forward to booking with her again!
