The Staff and Affiliates of
World Travel & Cruise
would love to help you plan your next adventure.
Jodi Mettler - Owner
I purchased World Travel in 1995 and changed the name to
World Travel & Cruise. My travel experience spans over
13 years, as an agent, manager, and now owner. My travels
include such exotic destinations as Japan, Mexico, and
Switzerland. I have cruised Alaska's Inside Passage and the
Eastern Caribbean. My next cruise will be in the Western
Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico. I lived in Alaska for over
20 years and have lots of stories and information to share
about "The Great Land".
Patty Burrows - Corporate Accounts Manager
I have over 17 years experience in both Corprate and Leisure
Travel, 8 years as a Travel Consultant and 9 years as a
manager. My travels include much of Australia, China,
Mexico, The Caribbean, Scandinavia, Europe, Canada, and much
of the USA. I have cruised in the Caribbean, Alaska, the
Mexican Riviera, and through the Panama Canal. I have
graduated from the Disney Collage of Knowledge and I am
currently working toward my Cruise Counselor Accreditation.
I enjoy working with Corporate clients and handling their
special needs. The most enjoyable aspects of my job are the
ability to continue my education, improve my skills, and
travel.
Rachel Eastburn - Leisure Agent
I graduated from American Airlines Travel School in 1987 and
have worked in the travel industry since then. I lived in
the Dallas-Ft. Worth area for 13 years and prior to that in
the NYC area. I have traveled extensively within the US and
overseas. I enjoy introducing new travel destinations to
clients and sharing my experiences.
Ressina Luond - Leisure Agent
Travel is an ideal learning experience for all ages. I love
working in the travel field because I know from my own
travels how new places & faces awaken the senses &
touches the soul. I have had the opportunity to journey to
Indonesia, Mexico, Jamaica, Grand Cayman & England. I am
planning to visit China soon. Leisure travel is my
specialty. I look forward to sharing your travel experiences
with you and helping you discover new places.

I joined the staff at World Travel in 1990. Over the past 7
years I have enjoyed traveling to Mexico, Hawaii, Reno, Las
Vegas, Florida, and Branson, Mo. I have expanded my
knowledge of travel destinations and one of my favorite
accomplishments is the completion of my very intense study
program by Disney and graduation from the Disney College of
Knowledge. I have traveled to both Disneyland and Disney
World. I was able to experience all of the new attractions,
and the kid in me loved them both! The most important part
of my job is making sure your trip is pleasant.
