The Lens for and about travel companies

Travel companies, agents, travel consultants, all mean the same. They are there to provide a service for your travel plans. Book flights, hotels, car rental, arrange insurance etc. You can do it yourself, but it can be hard work and maybe you do not get the best offers. Typically travel companies make 5-15% from each booking, but often have better rates than you can get, going direct, so you still save.

One thing to check is the cancellation policy of the company , some will not let you change or cancel without paying the full cost of the booking.

What Wikipedia says about travel agents 

A travel agency is a business that sells travel related products and services, particularly package tours, to end-user customers on behalf of third party travel suppliers, such as airlines, hotels, tour companies, and cruise lines. In addition to dealing with ordinary tourists, most travel agents have a special department devoted to travel arrangements for business travelers, while some agencies specialize in commercial and business travelers. Some agencies also serve as general service agents for foreign travel companies in different countries.
