Should you use a travel agent, or book it yourself? At one point in time, a travel agent was the only option when you wanted to book a vacation, but today, more travelers are heading online and making their own arrangements.

The biggest advantage of booking online is the savings. You certainly save the travel agent?s fee when you do your own bookings. Search engines can be used to find low cost flights, and Internet hotel sites sometimes offer great deals. However, sometimes booking cheap means you get?well?cheap. It is always a good idea to check customer reviews before reserving a room, and double-check the location of your hotel. The same thing applies with flight arrangements. You might pay less, but if you fly into an airport that is nowhere near the city center, you will add both time and expense to your trip.

Customizing your itinerary, rather than taking a package deal through a travel agency, is another advantage of self-booking online. However, travel agents can get anything you can, and they have resources you will never find online. For the most part, agents do not have as much sway with airfares, but they typically have more control with cruises and tours.  Read more...
