Owner/Senior Advisor
Melissa Lechleitner
Hi! I am Melissa Lechleitner, co-owner of Dragonfly Journeys - a travel company.
My fondest memories as a child are of my extended family road-tripping from Northeast Pennsylvania to Walt Disney World in Florida. Somehow, six of us, our luggage, and personalities all made it down and back several times. I remember my grandmother absolutely loving Disney and sparking that love in me, too.
I became a Travel Advisor specializing in Disney vacations so I could create similar memories for other families, as well. I absolutely love to create custom vacations for families based on their own wants and needs.
While I am a specialist in Disney destinations, I also love to plan vacations anywhere else in the world! I give my concierge-level service to all of my guests.

Tiffany J Short
I believe your vacation shouldn’t start with stress—it should start with someone who truly gets what you’re looking for. Someone who knows the difference between a trip that’s “fine” and one that makes your soul do a happy dance. That’s where I come in.
I help busy people plan intentional, unforgettable travel—whether it’s a river cruise through Europe, a dreamy beach escape, a corporate retreat with actual fun, or a family trip that doesn’t end in a group text meltdown.
With years of experience (and more passport stamps than I can count), I handle the logistics, details, and “what ifs” so you can focus on the good stuff—connecting, relaxing, and making amazing memories.
I’m a Verified Travel Advisor through ASTA and always tuned in to what’s new, trending, and totally worth your time. When I’m not building epic itineraries, you’ll find me traveling, geeking out over destinations, or helping my clients prep like pros.

My name is Karen Hardy and I am thrilled to be able to help you plan your next magical vacation! I have loved everything Disney for many years and make at least two trips to Walt Disney World each year. Besides Disney, I have traveled to many areas of the US and Canada, along with a month-long tour of Europe, where we got to explore England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales.
