Why You Should NOT Book Your Cruise With A Travel Agent! #cruises #travelagent

Cruise lines pay travel agents 10–16% commission on every booking — around $180 on a typical $1,500 fare. Across the industry, that's an estimated $4–5 BILLION a year going to middlemen. In this video, I break down a simple idea: what if cruise lines cut out the travel agent and split the savings three ways — 4% to shareholders, 4% to crew pay, 4% straight off your fare? Everybody wins... except the middleman. And with AI booking tools getting smarter every day, do you even need an agent anymore? 🔑 WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: • How much of your cruise fare goes to travel agent commissions • Why "exclusive" agent deals usually aren't exclusive • The 4-4-4 split that could make cruises cheaper for everyone • How AI is replacing what agents used to do 💬 What do YOU think — book direct or use an agent?
