Ten Reasons Why you Should use a Travel Agency Instead of Booking Online?

Posted By : admin/ 515

1. Travel agency takes the stress out of your travel. Remember it takes a lot of planning to make any travel arrangement pleasant and memorable.

2. Travel agencies allow you to focus on your core activities including what needs to be packed, how you schedule your trip, etc.

3. You can avail of special discount or promo codes through vetted travel suppliers and service providers. Not to mention cashback or money off on spa, food orders or rides not usually available with an OTA.

4. Because travel agencies help tailor a custom itinerary, gather details of transfers, visits, tours, transfer and special visits depending upon your preference—you can focus your attention on other travel-related tasks.

5. Most travel agencies are upfront about the costs and any hidden costs, taxes and fees are identified and updated to the travelers.

6. Travel agencies are no virtual service providers like third-party websites. Their personalization helps one to get travel refunds in the case of cancellation, last-minute bookings or overbookings.

7. Unlike a third-party website online or mobile app developed on intelligent chatbots and historical trends, travel agencies lend more personalization to address specific user queries and fix them instantaneously.

8. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to travel agency operations. With a bespoke travel service model, they ensure they cut the mustard by taking care of customer concerns and personalizing the entire travel experience from the word ‘go’.

9. Travel agents usually go the extra mile in ensuring hassle-free booking process and follow it up till the client’s needs are completely addressed, whereas OTA support lines put you through a chain of people, having to wait through the queue endlessly.

10. Travel agencies personally understand your preferences and insights into a particular destination and specific travel segments such as educational tours, destination weddings, and business or corporate travel.
