Why do we have advertising on our blog?
Easy answer.
In order for us to support ourselves as travel agents, travel managers and bloggers, we have to find revenue streams. You see, contrary to popular belief, travel agent earn very little. We make NOTHING on domestic tickets, and little to nothing on international tickets.
Few airlines pay commission, and commissions on hotel rooms and car rentals are very minimal. With the Internet taking the majority of the booked travel away from agents, the suppliers have cut commissions to travel agents. Since most of the computer systems we use have similar fares and rates as the internet booking engines - the commission on those "web" rates do not pay a commission to the agents.
So, here at Pro-X-Travel, we look to advertisers and sponsors for additional revenue streams. If you plan on booking online anyway, why not just click our advertisers links.
It's still the same business, and you gain benefit from reading our site -- we bring you all of the latest promotions, interesting information about different booking engines and special deals you may not have otherwise found. We provide excellent information on the business of travel for the business traveler.
So, thanks for your support and we look forward to providing you with excellent information and a quality product.
Thanks,
Pro-X-Travel
