By in Travel Tips Comments Off on 5 Reasons Webjet is Wrong About Travel Agents

If you haven’t seen it yet, Webjet’s new TV commercial is out to get bricks and mortar travel agents by persuading consumers that booking online is better.

But, like you, we know that booking with a travel agent is the best way to make your dream holiday come true.

We’ve put together the top five reasons to book with an experienced travel agent

1. YOU’RE TIRED OF WASTING TIME

When researching a holiday online, you can feel like you’re disappearing down an overwhelming rabbit hole of information. By choosing to book through an experienced travel agent, you’ll not only save time, but you’ll know you’re booking with an expert who has been trained in the destination of your dreams.

 

2. ONLINE BOOKING ENGINES WON’T HELP WITH MISTAKES

Calling an online travel agency when something goes wrong with a booking can be a nightmare. Even if you manage to get through to a human being, the person on the other end of the phone has no idea who you are or how important your holiday is. As a travel agent, we are able to resolve the problem without you breaking a sweat.

 

3. ROUND THE WORLD TRIP? NO PROBLEM

Booking a complex itinerary with multiple stops is near impossible online, but it’s all in a day’s work for a travel agent. Whether you want to book a trip of a lifetime to Europe’s most romantic cities or have a wild adventure seeking out Africa’s best safari spots, we are able to put together the trip of a lifetime.

 

4. DREAM MAKERS

Now, more than ever, people want their dream holiday to be unique, they don’t want to have the same experience as thousands of other people. Unlike the Internet, when you explain your dream holiday to us, we’re able to find the boutique hotel of your dreams, suggest the hidden local restaurant perfect for a romantic meal or direct you to the secret beach with the best snorkelling.

 

5. BETTER CONNECTIONS THAN THE INTERNET
