One reason we have heard that potential clients are unsure about using a travel agent is because they need to make a payment plan. They feel the only way to do this is by dealing with the various travel company directly.
While some travel agencies may not be willing to do partial payments, we certainly can handle payment options. There are a number of ways to handle this with you.
You can set up a regular payment by authorizing us to use your credit card on file to make a regular payment on a weekly, biweekly or monthly basis.
Another option would be to submit payment information to us when you want to make a partial payment.
The only exceptions to making partial payments are with the deposit as these are usually required to be paid within a short amount of time (usually 3-7 days after booking).
Under nearly all cases, payments are made directly to the travel company through your agent. This means that any form of payment accepted by the cruise line/travel company, will be accepted through us.
Check with your agent if you are interested in making a payment plan. Some travel companies may have minimum amounts that we can do in a partial payment, but those would be the same restrictions you would find going to them directly.
Many of our clients do this to make bite-sized payments on a regular basis so final payment isn’t quite as difficult to chew.
Great news! I didn’t know about that. Thanksfor sharing! This will make travelling a lot easier for me!
