Article Abstract:
Canadian travel agents are experiencing difficult times due to airline commission cuts and competition from Internet booking services provided by airlines. Travel agencies are coping with these challenges by developing new models of revenue generation such as separating their primary functions and by charging fees from their clients. Travellers still benefit despite the fees due to the savings which travel agents are able to provide.
