Consolidator Travel Agents

Most people looking to purchase airfares want to do so at the cheapest available price . This almost always involves shopping around at a number of different travel agents and comparing with what can be purchased online. Travel agents can compete more efficiently if they have all of the information, which is not just the preferred date, time, and route (although all of this helps), but more importantly, the degree of flexibility with these factors.

Be Flexible with Travel Dates to Get the Cheapest Airfare Quote

It’s common to provide a travel agent with a specific departure and return date. However, if there is flexibility with dates, the agent should be advised because it can be the difference between a cheap airfare quote and an expensive one. One may ideally wish to depart on the 26th of April but if a flight on the 24th of April is $500 cheaper, then most people would want to know about it. Likewise, if one has inadvertently chosen dates that coincide with a concert, festival or expo, seats may be scarce and therefore expensive.

Unless a travel agent is advised of flexibility with travel dates, they will not necessarily look at adjacent dates. The time taken to check every airline and it’s availability on each of its routes, is time-consuming and time not well spent if there turns out to be no flexibility with departure dates.
