representatives of their clients, travel agencies take on a number of general organisational tasks
a trip, from researching the availability of travel services, performing and confirming
reservations, including itinerary changes and ticket delivery, as well as advice on the series
necessary insurance or potential hazards at the place of destination. Evaluating this special relationship
between travel agents and their clients, the demands in this industry are higher and involve a number
of special obligations.
