Before you assume a travel agency cannot offer you incentives, perhaps you should inquire first.
it is about time someone told it like it really is. one can go directly thru the cruise line and book and get whatever incentives are available. however, if you have questions you will never get the same person twice and relationship building is not what you will get which is something that you will have with a travel agent. the same with internet agencies...never the same person twice. do you have questions? what sort of excursions are good at particular ports? you will not get those kind of recommendations from on line sources or from internet agencies. thank you lorijbar for this information.
