    You are a Pro, Don. You know I have always heard "bad things" about travel agents all around and therefore never reached out to one. They say "they ALL about business ONLY, but it is not true; is just like everything else "bad doctors, good doctors",etc. --Thank you for all the information on this, it is very helpful. You're "The" Best !!! :)

      aww thank you. the good thing about me is being an agent is not my main source of income so I'm never even tempted to turn to the dark side lol. I'd rather people have a great time and come back to me again in the future. I love hearing about clients cruises when they come back ( well most of the time lol )

    I agree that you do help anyone, whether they are a client or not. You certainly have assisted me whenever I have asked for your help, Ill never be a clint of yours, because I live in Australia. I have heard you say a number of ties that you can only have clients that live in north America/Canada

    Wow. I've learned a ton from you. I'm definitely going to contact you. As a retired military in the U.S., I've always wondered if a travel agent can get better deal than what I can get from USAA travel (Member Agent). I'll be in touch Don.

    Hello, I have booked a cruise group on the Oasis of the Seas.
    I need to make a flyer with the information. I would like it to
    have Royal Caribbean as the letter head.
    How do I go about getting this?

    Hi, Don really good tips for picking a TA. Would one also include that the TA reside in the same country, or is that not necessary? i.e. USA vs Canada :-)

    No question.....just use don. I plan to go on my first cruise after all this corona stuff is over and I'm 100% using don based upon his attention to details in his videos. Some of the other agents on youtube are all about the sell in their videos but don speaks the truth good and bad.

    Don, are you able to book other types of trips (such as sightseeing train excursions) also?

  • @noturningbackever493
    @noturningbackever493 5 лет назад

    Hi Don. This is a very informative video. I am a little confused though--What do you mean to look at the travel agent's website? Do you mean that we go to "travel express" for example, and see all the agents--including the one you're dealing with--on that website? In other words, I'm dealing with Jane Smith, the travel agent. I don't go on her personal website, but the company that she works with; THAT website?, which is "travel express"?

    Don - are there cruise lines that you DO NOT recommend and what would they be? All we seem to hear about are all of the good things.
