2012201, if you use the services of one TA for many years, and sometimes go on trips 2 times a year, and you will be just as happy :)) The TA owner simply “stimulates” his regular customers in this way (I assure you, me alone!) And discounts for self-selection of tours are given not by tour operator sites, but by TA sites (which each region has its own). It's just that I have repeatedly, flipping through the Internet, seen similar proposals. Of the operators, I remembered Sanmar, who often offers discounts from 4 to 7%.

So, they do not appreciate and do not respect! And do not be afraid that you will choose another travel agent. Are you familiar with such a concept as an agency agreement between TO and TA? And what does he mean? I don't want to lecture here. In short, it is more profitable for TA to give 10% to me, and put another 5-10% for yourself, rather than not having anything.

What 5-10% of yourself are you talking about? That's just funny. Do not lead people into the so-called "ecstasy" of discounts!
What you are told by 10% does not really mean 10% at all!!! Understand. And no TA will go to 10!!! And even more so!
Do not breed flood.

They do not appreciate the fact that I travel to the Seychelles, Dominican Republic, Caribbean every year (in turn) not counting Europe. Is that what you want to say?

So, they think that you value them so much that you are not looking for another TA :)) Actually, I’m not a fool, I know how to count: if the price on the site is, for example, $ 3,000, I can deduct 10% of this amount, and then recalculate the price at the exchange rate of the TO dollar. Do not think that if you are bred, then the rest of the laymen. I haven’t been to the Seychelles yet, I like Southeast Asia more. So, envy silently! There is a forum here for tourism professionals, check it out and read how they are suggesting the whole world to oppose tourist discounts!

They also give me a discount of 8-10%, depending on the tour operator. Not only am I a regular customer with whom I almost don’t have to mess around, but I also bring a bunch of clients to my travel agent. Hence the big discount.

PolikSVT why should I envy? Because you love Southeast Asia? And I love Mexico, Polynesia. Should I envy you?
I have been on the forum of professionals from the very beginning of education, so to speak. And I don’t need to advise me to look in, I have already looked at what is necessary for a long time (but not there, because there is a little more competent).
And TA around me is full! And I don't have much to deal with. I do not adhere if it is closed, then you have to stand and wait or call. Today the TA has a "day off", which means another TA is working. In this there are no problems neither with me nor with TA!
Give examples, I'll tear straight from the Dominican Republic! Or can you give examples only in words?

2012201, You are a strange opponent! What sense to me to invent about discounts??? Well, I will announce my TA to you, you will "rush" from the Dominican Republic to Yekaterinburg - so what? You won't get this discount! After all, I was talking about REGULAR customers, to which I consider myself. _ "Today the TA has a "day off", which means another TA is working." - with such YOUR selection principle, there is no point in discussing any bonuses at all. I never stand at the door, I don’t wait, I just call the manager and announce the tour I like on the Internet, she checks the relevance, books (my family’s data is in TA), in cases of urgent payment, TA transfers money for me from her account ( again go to meet regular customers). I come to the agency only once, when it is convenient for me, I get a ready-made contract and pay. And "envy" - I'm talking about discounts, not about Polynesia. And then something you inflamed in earnest ...

then PolikSVT! I do not think that your TA is highly valued by you!
Who needs such regular customers who take all their earnings from them?
They have a maximum of 2%, and then not every Tour Operator.
And here you are breeding songs about some 5-10%!
None of the Tour Operators has such a commission!
And they make concessions to such extortionists in order to get you out of the office faster!

to oresta52! That's just not necessary to pour bile from scratch! If you read carefully, then I don’t even go to the office, everything is by phone, I only bring money. I have a great friendship with the owner. The size of the discount is done by default, we never even discuss it! I'm not going to prove anything to anyone here, they asked me to tell HOW - I told, and throwing beads is a thankless task! So, if they send you out, envy silently! And if you see off - no wonder that you have no desire to come! Good luck with discounts!

I'm talking about the fact that if you are issued at the price of a tour for TA,
and your familiar owner of the TA pays extra for all postings of money, maybe you have other calculations for the services rendered in booking the tour,
then do not mislead other tourists about such discounts.
Nobody will work for nothing!

Almost exactly the same is booked by all my colleagues and friends, the discount is only slightly less - 8%. And stop acting like an offended girl! What, onin minus me - and you get a bunch of buzz? How petty and stupid! But if it gives you secret pleasure - pliz, minus! Good luck! Apparently, falling into childhood is positive and great! Look how they messed up! Smiled :))

I think that it is even a shame to take away 100% of earnings from someone else's TA worker.
I book with my family with a 10% discount, it's natural!
But my friends were offended by the proposed 10% discount (knowing that there was nothing left for me), I had to give in to their offers of 50x50.
5% discount is the maximum that a tourist can expect if he respects the work of TA employees and if he wants to be a welcome tourist.
So do not brag, this does not characterize you from the best side in relation to your familiar TA owner.
He is unlikely to be happy with your next call, since he has nothing from you.

oresta52, maybe you, in Belarus, are ashamed! My relatives live in Brest and I am aware of your prices, etc. Our TAs, apparently, work on different conditions and, remembering the competition, not at a loss! You can put me another 1000 minuses, but "ce la vie"! It is stupid of you to use such childish terms as "boasting" :)) I understand, out of hopelessness, there are no other arguments :)) I have nothing to "boast" about, and I also respect the work of TA, as a hobby I select tours for my colleagues and friends (absolutely free!), because they simply don’t want to go to TA, they don’t get complete and reliable information there, having “hit” a “knowledgeable and intelligent” manager a couple of times. And, believe me, they are glad to my calls, and they even call me when worthwhile offers suddenly appear. And do not consider tourists suckers, we also understand what's what. And I wish you to increase sales, treat people with kindness, then you will have the opportunity to please your friends with good discounts, and not splash poison for no reason! Per aspera ad Astra!

Yes, and as examples, tomorrow I can throw here links to sites where it says: "If you select a tour on the site yourself - a 10% discount." But, honestly, I just want to finish this "quarrel" organized by you! Pamper your ego? Well, it's nice :)))

PolikSVT. Rather amuse yours! And what is on the site is not always true. I can give examples: the site of Pegasus and Coral - the difference is more than 100 dollars on the tour. Here's a 10% discount for you. It seems that you order Pegasus, but you get Coral.
But this is not a TA discount!
