Hi guys, with the internet a huge part of our lives, how many of you still use travel agents for vacations? For example, I am planning a dive trip next winter, it's very easy to research destinations on trip adviser, plug in your dates and everything is right there, just a few clicks away. You may make reservations and plan flights all while sitting in my recliner with my laptop. Big question, is it safe? just because I booked a trip and paid for it, also have conformation, how do I know when I get there the person behind the counter does not give me a runaround? especially when there could be a language conflict. I have done very small trips with mixed results, but being at the doorstep of a resort in the Carribean without a room could be an issue. How would a travel agent help you while traveling? I only used one years and years ago, before internet days. I have a feeling they do exactly what I would do, and charge me a percentage more. Please share horror stories, or great results.
