Karen Kass has been a part of the Starship Travel team since its inception in 1986 as an outside sales consultant and then as a full time inside Travel Specialist since 2002.

Karen's specialty is planning the perfect honeymoon for her clients using the extensive training and product knowledge accumulated during many years of attending seminars and on property site inspections.

She has been to most of the islands in the Caribbean and Hawaii as well as many resorts and hotels in Mexico, always keeping current with updates and expansions.

Leisure family vacations and cruises are also a specialty of Karen's. She has been on many Royal Caribbean inaugural cruises as well as the Disney Dream Inaugural cruise.

Karen's long standing desire is to assist her clients in planning the best vacation or honeymoon for their individual needs.

In the last few years, Karen has traveled on several river cruises in Europe and has firsthand experience on this exciting new type of travel. She says that unpacking once and traveling from Paris to the Normandy Beaches was fabulous. Also, exploring the Rhine River and the Danube were wonderful and so easy to visit the local people and explore the history up close. Recently she traveled on AZAMARA cruising from Sweden to Estonia to included 2 nights in St. Petersburg, Russia and on to Germany and Denmark. Karen says that everyone should experience the Baltics on a cruise.

Costa Rica and Panama are coming in strong as new destinations, but if you're looking for something out of the box, then Dubai in the UAE is the next stop on your agenda.

Within the last year, Starship Travel arranged a private group trip to China and to Africa. Karen's dream was to see the Terracotta Warriors in China and they were simply amazing. Their two-week journey to Africa was an incredible experience. Karen especially loved walking with the elephants and visiting the Penguin Reserve in Cape Town.
