Design My ItineraryA traditional travel agent looks free, but they earn a commission that is baked into the rack rate of the hotels, tours and cruises they sell you. It is money you pay without ever seeing it on an invoice. Our free calculator puts a number on it, then shows where a flat-fee, face-price concierge costs you less.
On the bookable part of a trip, agents typically earn about 10 percent on hotels, 10 to 20 percent on tours and activities, and 10 to 16 percent on cruises. On a 5,000 dollar trip that is roughly 500 to 750 dollars of commission built into your prices. Airlines mostly pay no commission now, so agents add a separate service fee there.
Chic Trip charges one flat planning fee, from 623 dollars for the whole trip, and passes face price on every hotel, table and ticket, with no markup. On higher-value trips that is cheaper than the commission you would pay an agent invisibly, and you also get a day-by-day itinerary built by locals who live in Paris, something a booking agent does not do. Estimate only: commission varies by supplier and agent.
