4 Reasons Why You Need a Travel Advisor for Your Next Trip

Some see travel advisors as a thing of the past but that couldn't be farther from the truth!

A travel advisor can be incredibly valuable for a number of reasons. They offer expert knowledge, save you time and money, and provide personalized service curating an itinerary specific to your desires.

Travel advisors are especially useful for complex trips and far off destinations. They provide peace of mind and stress reduction knowing all the moving parts are in professional hands.

Even if an advisor hasn’t been to the location you want to visit, they have access to trusted partners on the ground and a network of other travel professionals that grants them access to insider intel that we’ll connect you with a truly authentic experience.

When brought to a hotel partner of a travel agent, you'll receive the benefit of that hotel valuing your stay more because they know if you're happy, the travel advisor is happy, and will then send more guests their way.

If any issues arise, the travel advisor becomes an advocate solving problems on your behalf. They have extra pull and can resolve issues easier than a costumer can since they are in a relationship with the partner accommodation or destination management company.

Travel agents have access to perks that consumers do not have access to. Even your credit card company or rewards program can’t beat these exclusive bonuses.

For the same price as booking on your own with an OTA, you can pass off the admin to a trusted professional and get all the extra goodies.

They won’t just save you time and energy. They’ll save you money, too.

Travel advisors have the power to offer cash-saving benefits, from resort credits to free breakfast, literally putting dollars in your pocket that you would have spent elsewhere.

They’ll get you the inside scoop, and helpful context.

Travel isn’t just about scoring the perfect place to stay. It’s about seeing the world through others’ eyes, and there’s only so much you can learn on a menu card or an online review. Travel advisors are great at knowing all the nuances of a place, and oftentimes have the story behind it too.

They’ll score you with awesome perks and upgrades.

There’s nothing better than walking into a hotel room with a fresh bouquet of flowers and fruit plate waiting for you, or being treated like a VIP with a room upgrade and a wine tasting

They’re your direct line to a hotel’s management team, a.k.a. you’ll be treated like the VIP you are.

Travel advisors can set you up with an all-around better experience on site, like free upgrades and personalized treatment. They know your unique needs - from dietary restrictions to whose birthday you’re celebrating - because they know you, and they also know that you love ocean views with corner windows and an extra pillow.

Now that you have a better sense of how travel advisors can serve you, are you ready to take the trip of a lifetime?
