  Other than starting your own travel Agency or being an independent of a host 
  agency, which I am, there's not much going on in the travel agency.

  Fortunately, the travel agent is making a come back.  The internet is great 
  for simple reservations however, it cannot hold a candle to what a travel 
  agent can do when it comes to putting together, complex travel plans for 
  groups and individuals.  Also more and more people miss that face to face or 
  voice interaction that they can only get when talking directly with a agent.

  We can match the online rates.  They can't match our service and good 
  customer service skills and for the most part, they don't even try.  There 
  only goal is to get you a reservation.  Who cares about the details!
