RubysTravel of Wayne calls itself the vacation headquarters
for romantic travel, specializing in destination weddings
and honeymoons. According to the agency, the most popular
destination wedding locations are Mexico and islands in
the Caribbean.
President and CEO Ruby Stanfield (a long-time Wayne
resident, and co-owner of RubysTravel with her husband,
Jim) has worked for Travel Network as an outside agent,
and after 26 years has built a name and a business for
herself in the travel industry. She is on the board of ASTA
(American Society of Travel Agents). Her RubysTravel
family includes a team of 40 home-based travel professionals,
each hired because of an expertise or skills in a particular
area. “We are a team,” Stanfield says. “We partner with
many cruise lines, hotel reps and tour operators, and have
personal relationships with all the companies we work
with. We can match any online travel agent offers, and
when weather hits, our agents work for their clients 24/7,”
she states.
Agents pool resources to personally help every client
achieve successful custom vacation planning through their
firsthand knowledge of travel recommendations for destinations, cruises, tours and hotels. “That puts us above so
many other agencies: our personal service at no extra cost,”
says Stanfield, adding, “and, you can meet the team on our
Facebook page.”
RubysTravel has booked international trips for the Girl
Scouts of Northern N.J. Council, as well as handled
arrangements for the Wayne Valley High School marching
band and cheerleaders’ spring trips, and the eighth grade
trips to Washington, D.C. for all Wayne middle schools.
