15 Good Reasons To Use A Travel Agent

 1) Don't trust your travel plans, credit cards and other personal information, especially your home address once your travel dates are known, to an 800 number or the Internet.

 2) Often seat numbers selected through an "on-line source" come back as unconfirmed after you've purchased a non-refundable And non-changeable ticket. This Never happens when using a travel agent.

 3) Press one for this, press two for that, press three for English and press four to repeat. Using a travel agent, there is no pressing, only a "one on one" personal service and a real walk-in office with personalized service.

 4) Travel agents can tell you, from experience, what tours to take, and which ones not to take. The internet can only "advertise and sell" them.

 5) Planning a trip is often stressful, with many details and options to worry about. Travel agents do all of the work for you, resulting in less stress for you.

 6) With all of the countless travel insurance options available these days, it can become totally confusing. A travel agent can help you pick the plan that works best for your needs. Or maybe you totally forgot about travel insurance?

 7) Where to go, and not to go with kids...... travel agents can help you find great  locations that are kid-friendly. Likewise, travel agents can also recommend excellent locations that are open to adults only.

 8) Avoid International flight confusion and let a travel agent organize those complex flights that "on-line" search engines don't cover, and can't do.

 9) Experience personalized service using a travel agent because you're not  booking through an impersonal website, or some voice 9,000 miles away in a  foreign country. You are talking to your neighbor down the road, someone who knows you, and someone who will take the time to find out what is important to you and the vacation that's just right for you.

 10) You Googled "Caribbean cruise," and came up with 17.8 million responses! Who is the honest choice? Who has the best price? Need a little help editing those choices?

 11) How many hours were you on-hold with the airline when your flight was cancelled because of a snowstorm, that no one told you about?

 12) Travel agents offer "one-stop shopping" and can handle every aspect of  your trip from airline tickets to lodging, ground transportation, activities, tours and offer you an array of options and price quotes from a variety of travel suppliers, giving You the upper hand when making your final travel decisions.

 13) Best value for your hard earned money...... travel agents can help your  travel dollars go farther because they have access to finding all sorts of "deals"  ranging from flights to hotels to dinner recommendations.

 14) Travel agents must be doing something right...... we sell 51% of all airline  tickets, 87% of all cruises, 81% of all tours and vacation packages, 47% of all hotels and resorts, and 45% of all car rentals. 

 15) Contacting the Attorney General to resolve the fact that the on-line travel source you booked through has billed your credit card three times instead  of once is probably a good idea.
