Top Ten Reasons to Use a Travel Agent

• 
  You are looking to ride a tiger over a bridge in India

No matter how zany or unique your request, your travel agent will make it happen just how you imagined it would.

• You love to live on the wild-side, they love to keep you protected

No matter if you are mountain climbing, on a safari through the jungle, or sitting on the beach, your travel agent will make sure you have the proper travel insurance to cover any dilemmas you may face.

• They get around

Most of the travel agents recommending hotels and resorts to you have been there and experienced what your destination has to offer. Most travel agencies only recommend quality resorts.

• They have friends

Travel agencies have connections with companies all over the world. They have negotiated rates, along with personal contacts, to make your trip the best trip.

• They do the work

All you have to do is put in one call or email. Your agent spends time researching, contacting, negotiating, and planning your dream vacation.

• You can’t get rid of them

Before, during and after your trip your agent is working with you to make everything goes smoothly

• They keep you out of the curtained-off security room

Travel agents have up to date information on all travel rules and regulations so you can avoid a “more detailed” search from security

• They care about you

Whether you need a ride to the airport, or a shoulder to cry on, your travel agent will help you out.

• They know the value of a dollar

Your travel agent knows you work hard for your money so he/she will find the best deals for you each and every time, without charging you an arm and a leg to do it.

• They never sleep

Travel specialists are waiting to help you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Whenever you need them, they will be there. If a disaster were to occur, your agent will be on the phone working to get your home quickly and safely.

Internet Flys High

Business travelers can spend a majority of their time thousands of feet above the ground, flying hours to get to a meeting or a conference. Laptops and wireless Internet have made it possible for these travelers to get some work done while waiting for their flights, but what about while they are in-flight?

Airlines are now addressing that question by offering, or by planning to offer, in-flight Internet and instant messaging.

JetBlue is one airline that now offers free email and instant messaging services on one of its aircrafts. American Airlines, Virgin, and Alaska Airlines also will be bringing the Internet to the sky in 2008.

What about those traveling without their laptop? For those travelers, Virgin America plans on linking technology to its seat-back entertainment system. This system would offer the ability to send and receive messages during flight, but not make phone calls.

"All of these new capabilities on flights will make business travel easier and much more productive. Within the next 10 years I believe Internet capabilities will be built into most aircraft. Technology is getting more and more advanced and the airlines will not want to be left behind," said Sabrina Whiting, director of sales and marketing at Travel Travel Carlson Wagonlit.
