American Express Travel was always the place to go when traveling abroad if you needed help or advise.
As a young kid fresh out of college traveling abroad to various locations in the South of France and the Italian Riviera on my own Amex Travel agents were very caring and helpful giving advise as I met my European friends whilst vacationing.
Remember Travelers Cheques and the slogan "Don't leave home without it"?
I was quite impressed with the knowledge of their staff abroad. My friends even mentioned how much more I knew than they did at the time. Good use of the French language helped too of course.
Today, we have more advise at a click on our smartphones and laptops.
American Express Travel holds a special place in my travel memories.
Bon voyage mes amis! read more
