We tend to hear the same things here at Traveltrust (usually it’s about how great and helpful we are) and sometimes it’s one particular question more than most, and we think it might be a good time to address just why it might not always make sense to book the cheapest a scraper site might offer you.
It’s fair to say that the biggest concern for every traveler, business or personal, is price.
We understand that at Traveltrust, and that is why we always offer a minimum of 3 options, so you have a good snapshot of what’s available and what might work best for your parameters. And whilst we strive to offer the lowest price on the market, saving you in excess of 50% on business class flights, now and then there is that particular site (Usually named something like XYZ travel) that *just* pips us to it.
This is the same across the board for the vast majority of our competitors. But as the saying goes, and this ultimately answers the query, you get what you pay for.
At Traveltrust we offer a service within our flight prices, and that service also comes with peace of mind that if there’s a last minute change to your travel plans or you flight is delayed, we are there to sort everything out for you. The alternative is to be sat for hours upon hours on the phone with an international call centre trying to sort something out that really should have taken minutes.
And that is what it comes down to: hassle. At Traveltrust we offer a premium person-to-person service that the internet can’t match up to. We are on hand to help no matter the time of day to assist you in whatever your travel plans throw at you, and that is something that the very cheapest deal isn’t exactly going to send your way.
Not only that, but TMC’s can offer billing services, reporting and ensuring a company travel policy is implemented. And of course, the time saved scouring search after search.
At Traveltrust, we’re immensely proud of the service we provide, both before and after the booking – and we think in the bigger picture, having a trusted TMC will save you so much more than that extra £30 you could have saved by booking on “XYZ Travel’s” website.
