Why Should You Use A Travel Agent In Egypt?

You think you to want to book your vacation on your own?

We hear this all the time. We’re so happy that so many consumers come to our site each month.
And as for why someone should use a travel agent, we started asking consumers why they ended up at Deluxe Travel. The answers had the same themes; the value of time, the need for expertise and trust.
I happen to think there are over a hundred good reasons to use a travel agent. So, I’m going to start listing them, five or six at a time.

In no particular order:
1. A travel agent will be your Advocate If your customer has a problem during their trip, a travel agent will act on their behalf. You’ll help re-book flights, get them on the next train or rearrange their itinerary or direct them to the local authorities so they can get a new passport. Whatever might go wrong, you the travel agent, are there for them.

2. Easy, One-Stop ShoppingConsumers spend so much time researching their trips these days, but in the end, they want a travel agent to handle every aspect of their trip from the air reservation to your accommodations, sightseeing, dining arrangements and so much more.

3. Travel ExpertiseUnfortunately, people think being a travel agent is easy. I hate that. Travel agents are experts / specialists in all sorts of destinations and travel types. A good travel agent, a real travel specialist can put together an awesome unique itinerary that most consumers couldn’t even dream about.

4. How valuable is time?Like I stated above, many people come to Deluxe Travel after (ready?) weeks of doing research online. Yep, they spend days or weeks on really neat sites like TripAdvisor, AOL, Expedia, Orbitz, Travelocity, and the other millions of sites Google sends you to etc. All of these are really great, but smart consumers will want to talk to someone about his trip. Someone as in a real, live person. Someone to sweat all the details. I keep telling people to save themselves the headache (likely a migraine) and let a travel agent do all the work. I tell them they should concentrate on packing and bringing the right things with them.

5. Options If you’re like me, you love to pick from lists. You love options. I get to make my own decision but someone else did all the hard work putting together a list for me. Right? Well, I tell consumers all the time that travel agents offer options and prices from travel suppliers worldwide, giving them (the consumer) the ability to make their own travel decisions.

6. ValueNot “Cheap” but value. If you want cheap, then sure, hit the web and take risks. In life and especially in travel, you get what you pay for? For me, “cheap” once meant a hotel with bedbugs, so I’d rather get value any day.

There are still alot more to come for why a consumer should use a travel agent for his vacation.
