You know SR, a couple weeks ago I may have taken you up on that offer BUT I have recently had a very distasteful experience with my travel agent and have decided her services are no longer needed.
Whe the Princess and I went to San Francisco in April, everything was great. We used our same agent from past trips. Good service, fair price, nice hotel and some fun tours. All in all, a very pleasant trip. When we decided to go to San Diego a couple months later, I called the same agent and asked her to prepare a package. Almost three weeks later, I had still not received a return call!!!!! Finally, I contacted another agent (same company) and gave her my information. About three or four days later, she called and gave me a package to St. Thomas!!! I told her we did not (and could not) travel that far and she told me she had nothing "on the beach" in San Diego!
I decided to do the same thing I did with my upcoming Detroit trip and simply go online to Travelocity. Not only did I get a great deal, we got a FOUR star resort ON the beach, airfare AND transfers! I have decided that there is really no reason to utilize a travel agent when I can do the same thing myself and save a few bucks. Sadly, this is what things have come to in the travel industry. Apparently, the agent could not make enough money on the trip I requested and so I became insignificant.
