About No Baggage Required

Hi! We’re Jason and Ashley, a travel obsessed Gen X couple that’s moving on to new adventures now that our kids (all 5 of them) are grown, flown, and living their best lives.

– Our Travel Style –
more bougie than budget

Amazing travel experiences don’t have to cost a lot of money. Lots of great adventures can be had on a shoestring budget. But, we aren’t in college anymore. And while we love a good deal, we don’t mind putting down our cash (or swiping our card) for things that matter to us.

So, you won’t find us bunking with backpackers in a hostel. But you will find us grabbing lunch at the best food truck in town or catching the last set at a local dive bar before heading to our 5⭐️ resort, AirBnB, or boutique hotel.

We search for the smartest deals and splurge on the luxuries we value. We call it Smart Luxury.

Living Our Best (Mid)Life

Maybe you’re where we are… smack dab in the middle of life. Between two generations who seem to get all the attention. We’re teaching our parents how to use social media while fussing at our kids for being on it too much.

We’ll help you move to the next phase of travel – where you can choose the resort over the chain hotel. Where you aren’t limited to eating at restaurants with chicken tenders on the kids menu. And you don’t have to schedule activities around nap time (unless you’re the one napping…in which case we fully support you).
