Using a travel agent

in General

There has been much discussion here on the forum about the need to use travel agents. There seems to be a fifty fifty split.
We have never used an agent until a few months ago when we booked a tour with friends via a British travel agent. This morning we got this from them
‘ I know you have US passports, but what are your nationalities?’ Oh, my goodness, this is an agency that specializes in bespoke vacations too….and they don’t realize if you have a US passport, then you must be a US National. This is not the first time they have organized the same type of trip for our group. Yikes, help, hope the other arrangements are OK!

    There are clueless people in every field.

    Is that a trick question? Maybe it was referring to people who have dual citizenship and multiple passports. I’m just guessing.

    I have dual citizenship. I decided to keep my Irish passport up to date.

    We are extremely happy with our TA. She is very helpful and offers us lots of support when we need it.

    I also use a travel agent. I’m in California and my true blue travel agent is in Florida. She is one of the owners of a national travel agency, Tzell.

    I have dual citizenship, but I gave the info of my US passport, either way, you can’t have an American passport unless you are American

    Maybe you should find a different TA. We always book with a travel agent and have never had any issues.

    No choice for this trip. A cheap and cheerful river cruise with friends.
