Title: Looking for a travel agent
Post by: Tacachale on April 20, 2016, 09:59:47 AM
Does anyone know a good travel agent? I'm trying to plan a trip to an academic conference in Port-au-Prince, Haiti in June. Any recommendations would be welcome.

If you are a AAA member, they have a travel booking service.

There is a travel agent at the AAA office on Southside and Touchton next to Publix.

Ben Says is a travel agent isn't he?
Never used him but his posts on traveling sound pretty educated.

I emailed him the other day, but haven't heard back yet.

That's a good idea, I didn't think of that.

He's usually good at responding in a timely manner. A few days ago he was on his way to Buenos Aires. That's not a good excuse obviously but could be why.

SORRY! I'm BACK! Not only was I in BA, but I was in BA on business (busy from 8 am until 1 am...long days).

BUT...that's not the reason I haven't replied...  I guess because my Outlook has it out for me, and because it's the first time Bill has emailed me, it ended up in SPAM.

Bill: writing back NOW :) Apologies!

Got it - thanks Ben! I figured it was something like that.
