Travel agents earn commissions by booking hotels and other travel services. Their motivation is to book a travel program that maximizes agent commissions, not necessarily what is best for the traveler. The Traveling Professor, as a travel planner, accepts NO commissions from hotels, guides, or other travel providers. The Professor works for YOU.
