What are the benefits of using a Travel Advisor?
Here is one of my answers. I posted this on my FB page tonight and thought maybe it would give other people some ideas.
I am a travel advisor and I work as a match-maker between my clients and a variety of travel suppliers. This is very different from booking directly from a specific cruise line, hotel, etc.
If you call Carnival Cruise Line to book a cruise, they are not going to tell you to check out Carnival because their food is better, and they know you're a foodie. Just like if you contact Mariott Hotel they will not recommend the quaint little boutique hotel down the street which is both better value and much more charming with a local flair. Why would they? Their goal is to sell their products.
Travel advisors are not tied to a brand, we work for our clients. Our ultimate goal is to make you so happy that you will return and book again and hopefully even refer your family and friends.
Travel advisors take countless webinars, we have supplier meetings, and we go on familiarization trips and conventions to meet suppliers and learn about their products. We build relationships with hand-picked suppliers around the world. Suppliers we believe in, and we want to trust taking care of our clients. These relationships often make it possible for us to arrange things that you simply won't be able to do when you purchase your vacation directly from the cruise line, tour operator, or a big-box store.
Cruiselines, tour operators, online travel sites like Expedia, and big-box stores like Costco and BJ's all sell large volumes where you are simply one of many. Personal service is not their strength. When you work with high volume it is impossible to provide personal service to your clients.
Travel advisors are small business owners who work tirelessly to get to know their clients so that they can put their personal touch on their trip and give you the vacation of your dreams.
