1What is a travel Agency?
A travel agency, such as Lincoln Lane, is a company that supports a team of travel advisors who specialize in selling, curating, and booking travel experiences for clients. These travel advisors consult with clients to understand their travel needs and preferences, and then handle all aspects of trip planning and booking, including accommodations, transportation, tours, and more. Additionally, travel advisors communicate with hotels and other travel partners to ensure each trip goes smoothly.
2What is the difference between a Travel Agent & a Travel Advisor?
The terms "travel agent" and "travel advisor" are often used interchangeably. While the original term was "travel agent," the industry has undergone a rebranding to showcase the broader scope of work that travel advisors perform. At Lincoln Lane, we typically refer to our network of travel advisors as Travel Advisors, but both terms are commonly used.
