We’re excited to introduce the newest member of the Destination Vacation team, Eric Johnson!
After earning his degree in Travel Business Management, Eric’s career path took him on a 30-year detour into the construction industry. But through it all, his passion for travel never faded. Having been on 15 cruises (and counting!), Eric is now back to doing what he loves most, helping others explore the world, one trip at a time.
Eric specializes in all types of cruises, from family-friendly adventures and luxury escapes to private yacht experiences. While he’s a longtime Royal Caribbean fan, he believes there’s a perfect cruise line for everyone.
Living in North Dakota, Eric understands the importance of warm-weather getaways during those long winters. Some of his favorite destinations include St. Maarten, Grand Cayman, Perfect Day at CocoCay, and St. Thomas. He’s also looking forward to expanding his travels with cruises through Europe and Asia.
When Eric isn’t planning vacations, you’ll likely find him on the golf course or dreaming up golf trips that combine beautiful courses with amazing destinations. Travel has always been a significant part of Eric and his wife’s relationship, providing them with a way to connect, recharge, and experience the world together.
As a proud husband, dad to four, and grandpa to two grandsons, Eric knows how valuable it is to create lasting memories with the people you love. That’s why he’s so passionate about planning stress-free, unforgettable vacations for families, couples, and anyone ready to set sail.
