Barrett’s natural-born curiosity drives her to collect unique intel on each destination she visits, in turn further enriching the client experience.

In her role as Director of Product and Partnerships, Barrett is able to marry her eye for detail and appreciation for the relationships built during her time at SmartFlyer. Since joining the leisure team in 2016, Barrett has traveled to countless properties around the world, expanding her network and continuing to develop her knowledge on the up-and-coming trends in the travel industry. This drive to discover new places and form friendships with the people she meets along the way was sparked by her time living in Melbourne and followed her back to New York where she began her career.

While tasting crisp Swiss wine in Lausanne, uncovering her heritage in Budapest, and strolling the streets of Montmartre stick out as some of Barrett’s most memorable trips, it’s always the next itinerary on deck that gets her excited. She’s consistently on top of the hottest hotel openings in cadence with her role in developing partnerships with the most exclusive villa rental companies, private jet operators, yacht charters, and even insurance providers, Barrett is across all aspects of the travel experience for SmartFlyer clients.

Travel Tip

  • Whether flying domestic or international, I love to have eye and face masks handy during my flight. The masks keep my skin hydrated and fresh so by the time I land, I’m ready to take on the destination without looking tired!

Barrett is just so great to work with! Just an absolute pleasure and so knowledgeable. She was so attentive and would call me back immediately. I wanted to make a change the day of my trip so I sent her an email at 7am and she replied back to me in 10 minutes that she was working on it. Love her! I can't wait to work with Barrett again in the future.

We worked with Barrett to plan our 3 week honeymoon to Australia and Fiji. She was absolutely fantastic! She got to know our travel preferences early in the process and put together an absolutely incredible itinerary – complete with stops to multiple locations, amazing resorts, multiple activities and tours and recommendations for things to do at each location. We thoroughly enjoyed every minute of the trip and loved all of the resorts and tours that were booked for us by Barrett. She was incredibly organized – putting together a detailed app we could access on our phones with all of reservations and schedules and was prompt to answer the many questions we sent to her throughout the planning process! We already recommended Barrett & SmartFlyer to many of our friends and will continue to do so. We wish we could do it all again!

This was our first time working with SmartFlyer. Barrett assisted us during a very difficult time; it’s certainly not easy to travel during a pandemic. Our original plan was to go to Italy. Barrett helped us plan out every detail of what will someday be an amazing trip! Once the pandemic hit, we were no longer comfortable going to Italy, so she helped us to push out the plans a year and secure new dates. She then helped us pivot to still travel somewhere to celebrate our 10 year anniversary and vow renewals. She suggested Hotel Esencia in Tulum, which we had never heard of. She had been before, so she had lots of great tips and could personally recommend the location and the staff. She helped talk me through the anxiety of going to airports and getting on a plane and all of the travel logistics. SmartFlyer had a great app that consolidated all of our travel details. Upon arrival, our room was upgraded and we were given a contact to text to help us with our every need so as to cut down on visits to guest services. Following our trip, Barrett reached out to follow up to find out how our stay was and what could have gone better, which in my opinion, is a true characteristic of a travel agent who really cares and is looking for long term business. I can't imagine planning any trips in the future without Barrett!
