WHY explore travel resources on the Internet? |
2 |
In the very recent past, the traveling public had only two choices for
making travel arrangements.
|
One choice was to contact each travel service provider (airline, car rental
company, etc.) individually to make your reservations.
|
|
| |
The other choice was to contact a travel agent to make all of the travel
arrangements for you.
|
Now, however, the traveler can choose to use the Internet to aid in their
travel plans. The Internet also offers multiple opportunities for the travel
professional:
 |
The Airline Reporting Corporation is online
|
 |
Trade magazines and trade associations are found online
|
 |
Maps can be made and printed
|
 |
Destination Information is abundant online
|
 |
Cruise Lines information and booking
