.DanaSchwartzzz didn't have a boyfriend to surprise her with a last-minute trip. So she hired a service to do it instead.
I came to the airport with a backpack, carry-on luggage, and no idea where the plane I was about to get on would land. In my hands I held a large white envelope that I was forbidden to open until I had arrived at the terminal. The arrangement made me feel like a secret agent or a mafia assassin or James Bond. In fact, I was off on a weekend adventure somewhere in the United States.on Twitter. The service bills itself as a “surprise travel agency,” and I clicked through, intrigued.
The benefits of the surprise trip, I figured, would be twofold: The weekend would keep me from thinking too much about my ex, and it would give me several chances to take cute photos that I could post onSince its founding in 2016, Pack Up + Go has planned more than 12,000 trips for more than 22,000 travelers. Each trip is customized down to the smallest detail. “We have a team of in-house travel planners that plan all of our getaways,” says Corinne Hogge, the company’s director of marketing.
A mere 24 hours before takeoff, another email arrived: an updated weather forecast, and the terminal I would be departing from. A travel planner checked me in for my flight, so there was nothing I needed to do except get a good night’s sleep and make sure I remembered to pack headphones and a phone charger.
The real test of traveling alone came the next morning, when the time for that “brunch tour” arrived. It meant piling onto a bus with strangers while drinking mimosas as we drove from hot Austin brunch spot to hot Austin brunch spot. I arrived at the designated meeting place about 10 minutes ahead of schedule, prepared to befriend the tour guide and be the one sitting in front of the bus with her like the kid next to the teacher on a field trip.
But then, one stop into the tour, the bus came to a complete standstill. It was the morning of the Austin marathon, and IThe tour was an hour behind schedule. We had been sitting in traffic so long that two of the nurses asked to be let out to find a bathroom.
