travelocity vs. travel agent

Has anyone booked a cruise on-line rather than with a TA? What are the
pro's - con's?

Barb,

I have booked both ways as well and I never use a travel agent
anymore. I booked this cruise online for next month thru my travel
club:

I've always used a TA but check the websites for price comparison and as
leverage with my TA. Recently booked a cruise where my TA had a price of
$575 less per person than the cheapest web site for one specific room
category. Seems as if his company (he's a franchise of a national chain)
had a special promotion with the cruise line just for that cruise.

I highly recommend a travel agent Barb. I have booked both ways and
after having a couple of issues during a trip, I realized the importance
of having some backup. Make sure you get one that specializes in
cruising. I recommend allseastravel.com

We can see your e-mail addy is the same as the web site. You are a
lying sack of ****.

Rick, head for Hawai'i, they eat a lot of Spam there. Or come to
Austin in April for spam-a-rama.
