The travel industry has become so complex and competitive that state-of-the-art technology has become an indispensable part of the successful agent’s organization. Every business that needs to attract customers with quality service and attractive pricing must have access to information and sophisticated abilities to manage it. In addition to the minute-by-minute changes in schedules, prices, and terms, there are thousands of choices from carriers and providers that today’s traveler must evaluate. In addition, travel now requires dealing with security issues, and many unforeseen and uncontrollable factors that can arise during a trip. The agent that can anticipate all of these travelers’ needs as part of their service will have major advantage in this highly competitive market. Effective travel web design is the cornerstone of this advantage.
