Do you have some misconceptions about travel agents that are holding you back from booking your next trip with them? If so, you're not alone. Many people have some myths and misunderstandings about what travel agents do and how they can help you.
In this series, we'll bust some of the most common misconceptions about travel agents and show you how they can make your travel easier, cheaper and better.
Let's start with the first one: Travel agents are expensive $$$. Many people think that booking through a travel agent will cost them more than booking online. But that's just not true.
Travel agents can actually save you money by finding you the best deals, discounts and offers that you won't normally find online (we have secret access to many vendors). They can also save you from hidden fees, scams and mistakes that can add up to your travel expenses. Plus, they don't generally charge you any extra fees for their service; if they do then it is typically refundable.
You only pay for what you book minus the refundable service fee if charged. So don't let the cost stop you from booking with a travel agent. They can help you get more value for your money.
