Travel Agency Packages

Who can help me with travel ? booking airline tickets?

Would it be cheaper to buy airline fare directly with the airline or a Travel Agent ? Would it also be cheaper to book hotels on line instead of a Travel Agent. I am afraid that Travel Agencies might have specials with airline and hotels included. I intend travelling to Malaysia. (Kuala Lumpur and Penang) from Melbourne Australia

1. Personally, I would book with a travel agent, every thing can be done at the one time and they have a greater range of options for you to choose from. Last time from Melb. to Europe, we flew Malaysian and had a 3 day stopover in K.L. on the way home. Better price than Qantas (what isn't) top service, cabin staff excellent. Booked the lot with an agent and had no problems. By the by, just check the weather for when you intend to be in K.L. - the humidity in about August is a KILLER. 32c. and 86% humidity. And DO NOT try to cross a street other than at traffic lights - they'll run over you! Otherwise you will like it. Get out into the countryside as well. The people are great and the whole place is amazing. Be warned though, don't get ice in ANYTHING! You'll regret it if you do. Just enjoy yourself.

3. I prefer to go online. Look for necessary info - for any kind of details - go to wikipedia. For booking flight tickets - there are many in the business - As far as booking is concerned - match both the prices - you can get the best deals from any of them. Over the web - there is some serious competition, so the possibility of getting better offer is much higher.... What else I should add...... Generally I don’t like promoting any particular website – but all I can add is, the deal is in your fingertips – just move it over the keyboard :)
