And heres a quote from the Central Florida Business JournalNot all traditional travel agents are hostile. John Hawks, president of the Association of Retail Travel Agents (ARTA), said Global Travel was both legitimate and good for the industry. "People in our industry have tended to blackball anyone who doesn't do business the way it's always been done," he said.
How does Global Travel International work? Like a discount warehouse that buys huge quantities of food at lower prices, Global purchases cruises, hotel rooms and vacation packages at a discount rate. Those savings are then available to agents, much in the way that someone who buys a membership at Cosco gets additional discounts. The agents also get to share travel agent commissions with the company for referring travel to Global. For example, if a Global agent refers a friend to the company, and the friend buys a $3000 vacation package that pays a 10 percent commission to the travel agent, Global and the outside travel agent split the commission. Thats how agents earn back their initial investment and annual fee. The agents dont actually book travel with airlines or hotels. Global Travel has a staff of full-time travel agents who make airline, cruise and hotel reservations from a central office. - Leslie Clark
