  • WHY YOU NEED A TRAVEL AGENT!

    I’ve been a travel agent for over five years now and was a legal secretary for 32 years prior to that. While in that field, I acted as the personal concierge for the attorneys I worked for, which involved booking all their travel, rental cars, limousines, restaurant reservations, etc., whether it was for business or personal travel. So I truly do have much more than just five years experience being a travel agent.

    With the technology of today, it doesn’t really matter where your travel agent is. Tickets are delivered electronically, whether they are for flight, hotel. If you don’t have a computer, there is always the United States Postal Service for delivery of travel documents or when physical tickets are requested. I have booked travel for people all over the world here at my desk in New Jersey. I’m a researcher from way back and I love doing it. Working as a travel agent is a passion of mine and I’m thrilled to be able to do it.

    I would love to help you with your trip request and you can be assured that I will do my best to find you not only the lowest possible price for the trip you are looking for, but also the best value for your money. Sometimes it's not always about the money, but what you receive in return for your money. All this is done in a very timely manner too.

    My agency has tremendous buying power with the suppliers and they buy in bulk at discounted rates. More often than not I can beat the prices on the Internet and always give you my best service 24/7, not just 9-5. AND IT DOES NOT COST YOU A DIME TO USE MY SERVICES!

    A lot of people are under the misconception that if you use a travel agent it will cost you a service fee. Some agents DO charge a service fee but I have never done that and I won’t. The sites on the Internet, such as Travelocity, Expedia, Orbitz, etc. DO charge services fees (the horror stories I have heard are horrendous). Sometimes they are hidden in the cost of the trip, but you are being charged. The supplier (the hotel, the resort, the car rental agency) pays my commission. For instance, if you and I both call Disney we will get exactly the same price on a trip. The difference is by using a travel agent, you may receive an upgraded room, a bottle of wine in your room when you get there, and little perks that booking directly with any company won’t do for you. The suppliers know the travel agents are their loyal customers and will save the better rooms for them, while people who purchase on the Internet are merely bargain hunting and are not loyal customers and the less quality rooms are saved for them. Who has the time to spend hours scouring the Internet for competitive prices, never knowing what you will truly end up with? That’s my job and you can bet by dealing with a travel agent that I’ve done some serious homework before quoting you a price, because I want you to be happy, because that’s my job and I want you to book with me again. So you can just sit back and relax and be assured that your trip is good hands.

    Additionally, as an extra bonus, anyone that books travel will me valued at $2,000 or more will receive a free $50.00 Visa gift card to use any way you want. That’s my way of saying (1) thank you for allowing me to book your trip, (2) I hope we can do business again, and (3) please refer me to your friends, family, neighbors and coworkers. That way, they can reap the benefits too! So you really can't lose!
