Frequently Asked Questions
What does a travel advisor do?
A travel advisor is your personal travel planner, advocate, and expert resource. We help you research destinations, compare options, secure the best value, manage reservations, and support you before, during, and after your trip. Instead of spending hours online, you gain experienced guidance and a trusted partner who handles the details for you.
Is it more expensive to book through a travel advisor?
Often, no — and sometimes it’s less. Advisors have access to exclusive fares, added amenities, and promotional offers not available to the public. We also help avoid costly mistakes, missed connections, and non-refundable choices. Our job is to maximize value, not increase cost.
Do travel advisors charge a fee?
Some trips may include a professional planning fee depending on complexity (custom itineraries, multi-country trips, etc.). Many bookings incur no additional client fee because we are compensated by travel partners. If any planning fee applies, we always discuss it upfront — no surprises.
Why should I use a travel advisor instead of booking online?
Online booking gives you choices; a travel advisor gives you clarity. We narrow thousands of options, verify quality, and tailor recommendations to your travel style. You also gain 24/7 human support if plans change, flights cancel, or you simply have a question — something online booking engines do not provide.
Can a travel advisor help if something goes wrong during my trip?
Absolutely. This is one of the biggest benefits of using an advisor. If there are delays, cancellations, schedule changes, or emergencies, we advocate on your behalf, rebook services, coordinate with suppliers, and assist until things are resolved. You’re never traveling alone.
Do travel advisors get better deals than I can find myself?
Advisors don’t just “find deals” — we unlock added value. Through preferred partnerships, we can access bonus amenities such as onboard credit, upgrades, early check-in, complimentary breakfast, private transfers, or exclusive promotions that aren’t available to the general public.
Can a travel advisor book flights only?
Yes. We can assist with flights only, or with complete travel planning including hotels, cruises, tours, travel insurance, and transfers. We tailor our service to your needs — from simple bookings to fully customized itineraries.
What types of trips can All-Travel help me with?
We arrange cruises, luxury vacations, escorted tours, all-inclusive resorts, honeymoons, family travel, corporate travel, river cruises, adventure travel, and fully custom international journeys. If you’re dreaming about it, we can help plan it.
Do I lose control of my booking if I use a travel advisor?
Not at all. You approve every decision and payment. Your advisor simply manages the logistics, verifies details, and provides expert guidance. You gain control through clarity — not lose it.
How do travel advisors get paid?
We are typically compensated by the travel suppliers we book — such as cruise lines, hotels, and tour companies. This allows you to receive professional support without additional cost in many cases.
Can travel advisors help with group travel?
Yes — we specialize in coordinating multi-room trips, destination weddings, incentive travel, family reunions, and hosted group programs. We manage contracts, payments, and logistics to make group travel seamless and stress-free.
Why choose All-Travel specifically?
All-Travel combines decades of experience, strong supplier relationships, and truly personalized service. You’ll work with a real advisor — not a call center — who understands your preferences and supports you from planning through return.
The Best Price Guarantee
SHOP WITH CONFIDENCE AT ALL-TRAVEL! Our goal is to find you the best available price at the time of booking! The All-Travel Best Price Guarantee is available to travelers who have booked a cruise, escorted vacation or vacation package with All-Travel. If you find a lower rate on another website within 48 hours of your purchase, you must call and notify your travel consultant within that 48 hour period AND send an email with the current URL or web site link that includes the lower price. We will match price anyone.
The guarantee only applies to the cost of the cruise, including port charges and does not apply to flights, land components, amenities, extras or other components or portions that are not part of the cruise-only rate. The low price guarantee does not include group, charter, incentive, meeting, convention, consolidator, age related, past guest or interline rates. If the lower rate price is sold out then the rate guarantee does not apply. If a booking is made within the penalty period of a cruise line then the guarantee does not apply. This penalty period is established by the cruise line and charges may be assessed by the cruise line for revised bookings.
In order to qualify, the lower price MUST be current , available for booking at the time you contact All-Travel and available to the general public. Price must be for the same ship, sailing date and cabin category, or the same vacation package tour operator, dates and destination. Claims are eligible only if the lower rate is allowable within the vendor guidelines. Any additional fees charged by the other agency such as booking, service, shipping or handling fees will adjust the final price. Approved requests will take 7 – 10 business days to process credit.
Void where prohibited by law. All Travel reserves the right to modify or discontinue the Low Price Guarantee at any time without prior notice or liability. Any cancellation of this program will be effective upon removal of marketing links, images and references to the Lowest Price Guarantee.
