Dear tourists and travel business workers, we are interested in your opinion on packages to Turkey. Why go to TA if you can buy the tour yourself on the TA website?

On TO websites, only TA contacts are contacts, these are their agencies with which they cooperate. Directly impossible

Well, buy something on the site, who can forbid it. But for example, TO Coral does not sell tours to individuals, so you will have to contact TA or TO Sanmar.

The most important thing for me, for example, is that adequate ones give a discount, well, for example, 10-11%. Information from that is the price tag from which I consider the discount.

For kazkova
I can’t say how Ukrainian TOs work, in Russia Sanmar, Pegas, Biblioglobus sell tours to individuals on the site. These are the ones I bought from, maybe some other MOTs work the same way.

I usually choose a tour on the TO website myself, and buy it through my trusted TA, which makes a discount, and the price is traditionally cheaper than on the TO website

The meaning of TA for some people is to communicate with a living person for buying, and not with a soulless system. I prefer buying online, so I used to buy directly from the Pegasus website.
A discount from TA is a very rare event, unless the plan is completely fulfilled. And so the agents are not eager to share their commission with the tourist.

I always bought tours from TA (but I chose it myself) at a discount, but this year I encountered the fact that TA did not give a discount on the tour from Sanmar, so I see no reason to go to TA. TO sanmar and pegasus sell tours to individuals.

Maybe they don’t sell it in Russia, but in Ukraine you can directly from the site.

all individuals, not TA, cannot see maintenance prices for TA
All TAs have their own commission and "goodies" from TO
for ordinary customers (not regular ones), on average, the discount is 5-8% (if there are promotions and promotions from TO, then the discount is lower)
for permanent ones from 8-12% depending on the direction and cost of the tour.
Turkey, Egypt, many chain hotels in other directions are cheaper to take from TA than to book on your own (packaged)
For me, TA is at least 3 managers who go to advertisers, attend conferences, etc. and can tell me personally that a $3K hotel with good reviews is actually so good...
or if I'm going to a new country, I want to be told + and - of this direction and compare the information with the Internet one. (IMHO)
if, of course, you are a regular customer (more than 5 times) of the same hotel .... you have a free transfer, book tickets for six months, and the hotel gives you a super discount, then it can be more profitable on your own
although again ... using the xanadu hotel in Belek as an example, they had a very advanced loyalty system for regular customers, and it was more profitable to book through coral (but through TA) because this is his exclusive hotel

As for the numbers 8-12, is this for that? I think that it’s more, at least 15, maybe it gave me a tourist and gives it 10, then 11.

Doesn't sell Coral directly, sells through its own agencies
Right now I tried to buy directly, after choosing a tour to a certain hotel with a departure date, it’s still in the column’s profile. SELECT AGENCY
Below, do not buy a tour, but reserve

Sells - does not sell, what's the difference if the price is not less than that of TA? Unfortunately, I don’t buy tours every month and it’s not hard for me to go to TA once or twice a year, chat with a live person who will call me back and remind me that today is a flight, for example.

To AllOverTheWorld I do not consider Turkey for independent travel at all, only a package, but, for example, if TA does not give a discount, why not buy from TO directly. Moreover, I always choose the hotel myself.

Mila_, I don't know how TA works for you (I think about the same as ours)
I don't understand what it means TA does not give a discount, honestly...
If there was no difference between buying a tour from TA and TO, then why would TA exist?
maybe just change TA?

Most likely you need to change the TA. From the conversation, I understand that few people buy tours on the TO website
