Hate to say this but if more people would call on a good travel agent rather than trying to book their
own trips via the internet, they would save themselves lots of headaches. For some reason, people think they are getting a better "deal" by booking it themselves and end up lots of times losing money when they try to change or cancel, etc etc etc. They spend hours on end doing what a good travel agent can do in a lot less time. Penny wise, pound foolish!
