Why Should I Use a Travel Agent?

I used to be a Travel Agent skeptic. I couldn't understand why I would want to have someone else do it when I could easily book it myself! Then one day I met a travel agent (now co-worker) and I saw how passionate she was about making sure my family and I had the BEST vacation possible. She was kind, knowledgeable, ​and patient with my million questions. She was able to update my booking when a better deal came along, suggested activities we didn't even know were possible, and really helped us get the most out of our money. 

Now, there are MANY reasons to use a travel agent...but the most shocking one for me, was that I was actually already paying for one when I was booking on my own. I was a busy mom with two little kids, so the idea of having someone else do all the work while not costing me anything additional was a REAL perk. Why not leave it to someone who does this all day, every day!? She certainly knew more than I did. After the first trip she planned for us, I told my husband I'd never travel without a travel agent again! 

Travel Agents do extensive training on each of the vendors they book through, the trainings are required regularly to keep them up to date on the ins and outs of each ship/resort/theme park. These trainings help the agents to customize your vacation to you and your needs. While no one knows EVERYTHING there is to know about travel, our agents literally make it their job. The training and research that goes into every trip helps us provide you with the best vacation possible!
