Reel Hooks That Stop the Scroll

Every week, you post reels.
And every week, you hope this one finally takes off.

But let’s be honest—most travel reels lose people in the first two seconds.
That’s not because your video isn’t good.
It’s because your hook didn’t stop the scroll.

This week, I’ve got you covered with hooks that work specifically for travel advisors.
These openers grab attention, build curiosity, and get people watching long enough to hear your message.

Use these when you want viewers to pause and wonder “wait, where’s that?”

• “You’re not ready for what this resort actually looks like.”
• “Everyone books this destination wrong—here’s the truth.”
• “POV: You finally take the trip you’ve been putting off for years.”
• “If you thought [Destination] was overhyped, watch this.”
• “The moment I realized all-inclusive doesn’t mean basic.”

Perfect for storytelling, client transformations, or heartfelt travel moments.

• “This trip changed how she sees herself.”
• “She told me this was her first real vacation in 10 years.”
• “Here’s what happens when you finally stop waiting for the ‘right time.’”
• “I cried filming this—because this is why I do what I do.”
• “They came home different. In the best way.”

Use these to teach, inspire, or drop fast travel advice.

• “3 mistakes people make when booking a cruise (and how to skip them).”
• “Save this before you book your next all-inclusive.”
• “Here’s how to plan a luxury trip without the luxury price tag.”
• “Travel agent secrets no one tells you—until now.”
• “Don’t book another resort until you check these 3 things.”

These make your content feel human and shareable.

• “You ever plan a trip and forget you’re the one who needs a vacation?”
• “That feeling when your flight lands and your stress disappears.”
• “POV: You booked your own trip because you are the travel agent.”
• “When the group chat says ‘I’ll pay you back later.’”
• “If packing was a sport, I’d still come in last.”

Use when you want people to take action—book, DM, or sign up.

• “These deals vanish in 48 hours.”
• “If you want to travel this winter, now’s the time to plan it.”
• “You’ll never see prices this low again.”
• “Your next vacation is one message away.”
• “The people who book early always win.”

Reels that stop the scroll do one thing well—they earn attention immediately.
