Do you use a travel agency or hit the web to plan for your vacation or cruise.

I am always looking for the cheapest agency. What have you found offers the best rates for cruises, etc.?

I have always used Travelocity, but looking around I find some cheaper.

I just wonder if I am missing some good ones.

i used both a travel agent and orbitz.com to find a cheap, good cruise (in 3 days :cheesy: :ggreen: ) all cruise lines run about the same but i like carnival and royal caribbean the most

I plan it all myself. The only one I used and agent was when I went to Cuba, for that I used Expedia.

Ok, thanks.. We have always used Travelocity and every time we get on the ship and talk to people, some have paid half of what we did, ugh

Thanks, all. I will check them all out. We usually wait till the last minute, like a week ahead, to save money. The ships come in SanJuan and have lots of empty rooms, so we like to catch one.
