My Story
I grew up in a small village in Kerala, India, God’s Own Country (top 26 places to visit in 2026)—where curiosity, hospitality, and a deep appreciation for the wider world were woven into everyday life. As a child, I watched airplanes trace paths across the sky, sparking a fascination that would shape my future. Those early years taught me that travel isn’t just about seeing new places—it’s about feeling connected, welcomed, and transformed.
After finishing college, I moved to the United States and began my career with United Airlines. What started as an entry-level role that eventually brought me to the corporate headquarters in Chicago and later into many years as an airline consultant. Along the way, I learned the inner workings of the industry, mastered the art of logistics, and developed an instinct for solving problems before they ever reach the traveler. Through it all, one thing never changed: my passion for travel and the joy of helping others experience the world with ease and wonder.
Today, as a DFW‑based travel advisor with FORA, I bring that lifetime of experience to every itinerary I design. Whether it’s a milestone celebration, a once‑in‑a‑lifetime escape, or a journey that simply deserves to feel effortless, I craft trips that are thoughtful, personal, and unforgettable!
Travel Style
I design high-touch, emotionally resonant travel experiences for couples, families, and groups celebrating life’s biggest moments. From milestone anniversaries, honeymoon travel to once‑in‑a‑lifetime escapes, I’m known for listening deeply, planning obsessively, and crafting itineraries that feel effortless, personal, and unforgettable. My clients trust me not just to handle the logistics, but to bring heart, intention, and meaning to every journey.

Ben Thomas made our co-ed bachelor/bachelorette trip absolutely unforgettable! Coordinating a trip for 16 people is no easy task, especially with a last minute timeline, but he somehow made everything come together seamlessly. From flights and hotel bookings to excursions and all the little details in between, Ben handled everything with professionalism and care. He made this bach trip so memorable because he paid attention to the small things that really made a difference. He never made us feel rushed or pressured, but at the same time, he was always proactive in finding us the best deals and making sure everything was taken care of. What impressed us most was how smoothly he pulled everything together in such a short amount of time. We gave him very little notice, and he still managed to make it happen without sacrificing quality or experience. This trip was truly amazing, and by the end of it, we all agreed that we’ll be booking all of our future trips with Ben. If you’re looking for someone reliable, organized, and genuinely invested in making your trip special, Ben Thomas is the person to call!

We had an amazing experience working with our travel advisor. He was incredibly helpful in so many ways and was confident he would be a great resource if things didn't work out or go as planned. No matter the situation, he was always there to guide us and make sure everything was handled smoothly. He was also very patient with us when we weren’t sure exactly what we wanted and took the time to understand our needs without ever making us feel rushed. He provided us with many great options for hotels and travel packages, which made the planning process much easier and less stressful. What stood out the most was his dedication as he was eager to assist us even while he was on vacation himself. That level of commitment really showed how much he cares about his clients. He is extremely professional, trustworthy, and reliable. We felt confident throughout the entire process knowing we were in good hands. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and dependable travel advisor.

Ben was asked to support our event for a room block of over 90 room nights. He was so thorough in the review of the agreement, negotiating all the rates and ensuring all our needs were met. He also provided assistance in updating our agreement to make updates based on an increased need for rooms. Ben’s assistance and support during the entire planning phase took away many burdens from our family. His expertise and high level of communication and service made the room reservations process very easy. We will be using him again!!
