Poll: Do you use a travel agent when booking a holiday?

Have your say.

IT’S THE END of June, meaning many people will be jetting off abroad on their holidays as schools close for summer. 

However with the first day of industrial action by IALPA pilots due to take place tomorrow, your holiday plans might be in disarray if you booked with Aer Lingus.

Speaking on RTÉ’s Morning Ireland today, Chief Executive of Irish Travel Agents Association Clare Dunne called for Aer Lingus and pilot’s union taking strike action to have “common sense” and to centre passengers in their discussions.

The strike comes at one of the busiest times in the year for flights, as tens of thousands of families and children jet off for their summer holidays.

Whether you’ve been impacted by the industrial action or not, we want to know if you use a travel agent when organising your travel abroad.

So today we’re asking: Do you use a travel agent when booking a holiday?

    The Green Party wipeout is most pleasing. I’m glad to see the back of those condescending bluffers who have damaged this country.

    Considering all the big names that left they have done very well to maintain their position. Impressive for a party in renewal, new faces coming through.

    Don’t forget Waterford, where the Laser projectionist Matt Shannahan lost his seat, who also told a pack of lies about being involved with saving the Rescue Helicopter… good riddance. People were dying behind those walls while you promoted your own self gain.
