If you’re thinking of traveling soon and have never traveled before let me offer a few suggestions that may assure you of a trip of a lifetime not “the vacation from Hell!”
1. Call a travel Agent! Travel agents can usually get you better deals that you can get else where and they provide a safety net for you. Because a travel agent has direct access she is invaluable. On September 11Th, All planes within the United States air space were grounded after the attack on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. That means all the plans landed at the closest airport. After the planes had restarted flying I had a call from a man and his wife that had landed in Salt Lake City (which was not their destination). Seems they had to go to the airport to get the ticket changed. But the city was not a hub for the airlines that they were on. So, they only had one flight a day. By the time this couple would get to the airport the flight was sold. I was advertising in Usa Today at the time (with an 800 number). They called me. I asked them where they had purchased the ticket, the replied “the internet”. So I explained that when a ticket was purchased through a specific source that that source was where you had to go to fix it. The source for them was the airline carrier! But I did help them get on their way and they didn’t have to buy a new expensive ticket. If you want to know more I can answer additional questions if you call us @ 1-800-656-7821.
2. How does Airfare work? It is like knowing when you have to fly “upside down..or backwards“. It doesn’t seem to make any rhyme nor reason. I had a customer call me for a quote. He said Southwest Airlines had a fare of $98.00 going from Salt Lake City, Utah to Boise, ID…but it was not available for the dates and times he and the other 7 men traveling with him, wanted to go….could I get it? Not in your dreams! Think about it? But I was able to get all eight men on Delta Airlines for that $96.00 each. He had a price from Delta Airlines of $146.00 each.
