When Should New Couples Travel Together? Expert Insights

The beginning of a new relationship is so exciting and you simply don’t want to spend any time apart - is it too soon to book a vacation together? Speaking with Travel+Leisure, therapist Michelle Herzog believes “taking a trip together can be a great measure of the future health of the couple.” She explained how traveling together can show how the other handles stressful situations and allows you to see how you handle less privacy. Concerning how long you should wait to book a trip together, Herzog feels it depends on you and your partner’s comfort levels. When planning a trip with anyone, communication is key. Discuss every aspect of the trip with your partner from transport to activities. Herzog encourages couples to check in with each other throughout the trip as it will strengthen communication habits for the future. When planning your trip ask these questions: What kind of experience do we want? How much money are you willing to spend? Get candid about your financial situation. Being on the same page about the budget will help avoid disagreements and awkward situations. Understand each other’s travel style. Get to know their energy levels and take this time on vacation to familiarize yourself with your partner’s needs.
