Why Use Advance Travel Agency?

*Here's why you should take advantage of a travel agent's services, versus booking reservations on your own (as adopted from ASTA):

BEST VALUE. Travel agents work hard to get you the best value for your dollar. While we can't control prices, we can provide you with the most current information on the latest deals and special promotions, and enhance your trip with value-added benefits and amenities. We can explore what options and quality products exist so you can make an informed decision. The "cheapest" does not always mean the best.

CONVENIENT ONE-STOP SHOPPING. Save time and money by having your travel agent handle every aspect of your trip from lodging to activities.

EXPERT GUIDANCE. Experienced travel agents know the "ins" and "outs" of the system and can help you take full advantage of them. We have access to a variety of travel options and quotes from a HOST OF SUPPLIERS and can help you find the product that's right for you.

Agents book:
87% of cruises
81% of all tours and packages
51% of all airline tickets
47% of all hotel stays
45% of all car rentals

CONSUMER ADVOCATE. Travel agents don't stop working for you once you've booked your trip. In the event that you experience problems along the way, we can act on your behalf and see that restitution is made.

PERSONALIZED SERVICE. Agents are not some impersonal voice or lifeless Web site. Agents are the only unbiased professionals who can sort through nearly 100,000 daily changes in airfares alone. No single supplier is going to advise a customer that a better route or a better fare is available on a competing carrier. We know you and your travel needs and offer unbiased information since we work for you, not the supplier. And we strive for customer satisfaction since we want you to return the next time you're planning a trip.
