Wifey and I are thinking about a Hawaiian cruise around Thanksgiving. Fly out to Honolulu, get on a boat, and cruise the islands for a week.



Normally we plan and book all our own trips, but we were wondering if using a travel agent might not get us some perks on this trip like a cabin upgrade or whatever. Does anyone here use travel agents to book trips? How much do they generally charge and is the ROI worth it?

 

The travel agent we used to book our honeymoon created a 10-day island hopping adventure for 2, for the same price I mustered just staying Honolulu per person and only a week. Though with a cruise you can often find great deals online. Either way it doesn't cost anything to walk in and ask. Find a price and see if they can beat it.
