Is the travel market that great that allows so many sites that do the same thing? The deals are never that great, most of the time you can book it yourself for less direct through the hotel or airline, especially on international trips. 

Just a pet peeve... lol  Grin




Because a lot of people needs travel consultant assistant that offer by the the travel abpngency for those people want to relax and take vacation of for those people want to enjoy travel around the world.  Advertising and offering service of every tavel agency is all about busines demands.

For me the real reason why many travel sites advertising on tv is because there are a lot of people who wants to go on vacation especially when it's holidays and when it's weekend that's the perpect time for many people that's why travel sites never stop on advertising.

Because there's still a lot of people who watch on TV's, and companies want to target those people and become their potential customers.

Didn't noticed that I've been watching that trivago advertisement on our national TV for years now.

Tourism, travel, hotels and other related industry is on boom now. Like what the Millenials think that YOLO and travel is life. That's why these industries are getting popular and will become more.

I think they make use of the TV as their channel of marketing so as to reach and attract more customers. People travels everyday and the transport sector/businesses need to showcase and promote their business to make profits.

Or why watch TV when all content is available online ad less?

Funny thing is, those trip agencies don't have access to ALL routes and pricing, regardless of their claims. Depending on country, you can book flights from an airline that never shows in their system, for whatever reason. But you'd need to learn their names and find their web page on your own, especially on smaller or blacklisted countries...

Did you know, that no American airline is allowed to come to my country anymore? There is a bunch of smaller local 1~3 plane airlines that only go to neighbor countries to connect flight anyone intending to come and leave. You gotta love the thrill of flying those old planes... (don't mind that noise, it gets temperamental sometimes).

Answer is very simple, really.
If there is demand, a supply will also appear.
As travel is increasingly popular, more and more information is being sought, and of course many have recognized their business opportunity here.
It all comes down to interest and profit, as always.

In my opinion, because traveling and plane tickets are becoming cheaper and cheaper, meaning lots of people started traveling. I think it will be much more in the future. You just at how Bali changed, it became a tourist attraction.

Because travel tours is in demand in our time now,so many people are planning and going abroad or even in local places that offered cheaper and less stress by these travel company

Specially those who has no connection or friends in those places they wanna visit and also the accommodations are cheaper and accessible with them

And about in local travelers the transportation is one of the main reason why people like me take the offers because it’s hard to make scheduling while they can provide completely

All of them are fighting to be the best, and make the most money. Everything these days is about making money, or a marketing campaign one way or another.

No one else wants to advertise on tv perhaps
Been a while since I've seen a few companies ads but its probally because this is travel season.

1. Because its vacation time.
2. It is profitable business.
3. More people will see their ad = more profit for them.

Simply as that.

It is about the time that many people are going on vacations so the travel sites want customers to book their vacations through them.
