Travel Agent Suggestions:
​
-
Book as soon as possible, especially if you are planning travel during a peak season or a popular destination. This ensures you have the best selection of flights, accommodations, and activities to choose from.
-
Look for a travel agent who is knowledgeable, experienced, and reviews from previous clients and testimonials.
-
You can find a travel agent through a travel agency, online search, or referral from friends and family. Once you find your agent, schedule a consultation to discuss your travel needs and preferences.
How do travel agents get paid?
Travel Agents typically earn a commission from the suppliers they book with, such as airlines, hotels, and tour operators. Commissions can be paid sporadically, so some travel agents may also charge a fee for their services.
