The tour operator TUI set the price for the hotel FIX price, that is, the travel agent does not have a commission from this price, and cannot give a discount to the tourist. Is this true or just agents do not give a discount?

The agent, of course, has a commission. They will not give you a discount, because the commission for such offers is small. No one will work for free.

Perhaps now, due to a drop in demand, travel agents have difficult times, and they are not able to give additional discounts as before, so they come up with all sorts of fixed prices.

Come to another agency and are interested in this hotel. If the price is similar, perhaps the margin is really minimal and, as it was written above, no one works for nothing.
If this hotel is not exclusive to TUI, there are other operators from whom you can find out the cost for this hotel or look at sites such as vacation.ua

The tour operator cannot work in the red. The tour operator has a discount from the hotel that is not visible to you, and you are provided with a price list with slightly inflated prices and you see them as the real cost from the hotel. This is marketing

dtanya2008 you didn't understand the question. We tourists buy tours from a travel agent and sometimes they make a discount from their commission. and the Travel Agent is the intermediary between the tourist and TO. TO does not work directly with tourists. and the fact that he is not in the red and has an income is clear to everyone. But a travel agent who makes a discount at the expense of his income can sometimes sell a tour to zero, which I think is completely wrong, maybe you need to live from something.

And the travel agency does not work in the negative, otherwise, he needs to close his agency. They will not give you a discount and will show in the price list that there is nowhere to get a discount, but in fact the travel agency always has its own% !!!!!! Tricks of trade))

I, too, about a year ago, in a familiar agency, did not get a discount on a tour from TUI with a fixed price price, due to a very low commission. Also, you have to pay taxes on your income.
I don't think you are being deceived.

All TOs have such tours, TUI has a fix, Coral and other promos have a scanty commission. Operators do this to get into the first lines of selection in search engines. Anex has a different feature, if they have several flights, then the price of the cheapest flights that fly to the resort in the afternoon and you check in late in the evening, and depart early in the morning or at night, is set in the selection, and then, during checkout, for each changed flight, they add $25 one way per person.

In this scenario, the travel agent has a commission of no more than 3% of the price on the TO website. Accordingly, the discount for the tourist cannot be tangible.
