The site is a search one, but it gives you the opportunity to see a list of agencies that sell the tour. I did not get to the purchase, only in the form of a consultation

The site is very good. It gives a real opportunity to find a suitable tour. Before a trip, I always study the site, find a hotel, find out the cost of a "package tour". Then I contact the travel agency.

Isn't it easier to immediately monitor maintenance on sites (2-3 main ones)?

In Ukraine, not 2-3 main ones.
Even our managers have not been monitoring operators' websites for a long time. Although they know the nuances of all operators, and their flight program, and their base hotels, and the next load of flights, and selection of tours, do dozens a day.
On the operators' websites, only the relevance of the tour is checked and a booking is made.

For me 2-3 = I don't fly to Turkey. Egypt I watch only Anex / Joint sometimes Coral - the rest are 20-30-50% more expensive. To Greece - Muzinidis rules, the rest of the European countries - it's easier and cheaper to draw a tour for yourself;)

ser_____Witness77, I don’t agree. Sometimes it shoots where you don’t expect it. Over the past two years, I have had tours from Tez tour, Tui, although earlier Tez (and after, too) prices were decently higher. It also didn’t grow together with the thuja, but this year the price from them was very pleased. Therefore, I monitor vacation prices, find a tour, write its id (this is the digital designation of the tour) and send it to my girl in TA for booking.

If we are talking about the fairway, then it is very dull, I know that there is a tour for the date, but it shows that there are no tours ..... and very often. There are also serious shortcomings in other units. Today vacation for me is the most convenient and reliable

I like tourists who have been to Egypt two dozen times and think they know everything about the tourist industry. Or they believe that they have some unique information about this mass business in which they do not work, but only use its services.
From time to time such tourists argue with me here. I treat them with great respect. Since these are experienced people who have unique information about the NARROW segment of our services.
For example, klichko is an undoubted expert on hotels in Egypt at the Sunrise Royal Makadi Resort 5 * level.
Good hotels. But their total number of rooms is less than 5% of the total number of hotels in Egypt. And even in the Sunrise chain there are “different” hotels.

Or her vague phrase about "seen in the wrong." Since the situation here is not as obvious as with hotels, I will allow myself to reveal a big secret. Otpusk.ua no longer stores prices, but takes them directly from the database of operators. That is, when a site visitor makes a request for the tour parameters, then at this moment the vacation queries the databases of connected operators and displays the received prices for the specified parameters. At the same time, the questioner can even see the message “Wait a few seconds ... We are polling operators for ...”. I repeat - shows the prices received from the base of operators at a given time. Since this information is dynamic, it can change at any time. A dozen large operators - thousands of hotels - many already have dynamic bundling.

Imagine - we (tour agents) often change the price of a tour at the time of booking. And the situation, when the price has changed during the time that the tourist was traveling to us, is generally massive. Therefore, only an amateur or a person who has overestimated his knowledge on the topic can blame the vacation for errors.
We constantly post our details for vacation.ua, so we do this “check” of prices hundreds of times every day. This is more than what package tour lovers do in many, many months.

Or the position of ser_____Witness77 - "only Anex / Joyne sometimes Coral". Otpusk.ua now shows the prices of 8 operators in Egypt. And all these are very large operators - each has dozens of flights a week. It is naive to think that these flights are full of losers. And the tours were booked by incompetent agencies that cannot show their client the best price on the market.

By the way, about one more klichko hint
In Ukraine today there are two high-quality "engines" that collect tours from operators.
My opinion is that vacation is the best. Today, there are already several online tour booking sites that show prices. But most of them do not have their own engines. Own engine is very expensive. Moreover, most of this majority has a vacation “engine”. Farvater has already been mentioned here. I don't know what engine they have. But what do you think, who has a better engine, vacation, which is the most visited site in Ukraine, or Farvater, which is advertised on vacation and travel truth.

Especially for ser_____Witness77. It would be naive to think that these flights are full of amateurs. And the tours were booked by incompetent agencies that cannot show their client the best price on the market.
Let me explain about TA. Let's assume that Join's tour is 10% cheaper than, for example, TUI's. Those. by selling a tour from TUI, TA will earn 1% more. For the sake of such "earnings" TA will never risk the trust of its client. TA will show all the prices and together with the tourist they will decide with whom to fly.
It is also naive to think that the largest operators can build a business on amateurs and dishonest TAs. These businesses are not run by fools.

HotLine, I completely agree with you, I used the IT tour before, but I don’t like it. no one else has such opportunities for selection, look at different dates, composition, number of nights, etc. like a vacation, at least in such a convenient format.

"It's naive to think that these flights are full of amateurs."
- at least 80% of package tourists are still amateurs and naive hamachki, and this does not depend on the number of their trips - this is rather a property of the mind ... or rather its absence))
" And the tours were booked by incompetent agencies that can't show their client the best price on the market..."
- Yes, TA is more about minimizing the costs of its customers - the main thing for them is to ensure their stable level of sales and profits. Well, where and when in some TA they will tell you - DO NOT book this tour today/tomorrow, I see that the flight is NOT full and literally in 3-4-5 days the prices for the same hotel can drop by 30-50% at THAT, I'll call you back, if suddenly the situation changes and you need to urgently buy back)) ... have you heard somewhere about such an oxymoron)?

I wonder in what business do you earn money for your package tours?
Tourism is a large and developed market segment with serious competition.
In such a segment, it is impossible to “ensure your stable level of sales and profits” at the expense of 1% gain on the lack of awareness of your client. If a person has earned money for such a vacation, he is no longer an amateur. Moreover, the smaller the budget, the more carefully a person approaches the choice of a tour. Believe me. And do not be too lazy to call several TAs.

For example, we have a second monitor in front of the client, on which the client sees the whole process - the selection of a tour in the "search engine", which is made specifically for TA, the demonstration of this price on the operator's website and the display of the number of seats on the flight, automated preparation of the contract , booking in the operator's system. Not because we are so advanced, but because the probability of returning such a client increases dramatically if he leaves with the understanding that he was shown everything and he made the right decision. And since advertising costs for attracting a new tourist are much higher than earnings on the first tour he bought, without regular tourists, the TA business becomes unprofitable.

Managers have different scenarios for talking with regular tourists. They can recommend to permanent ones - wait a little more. They can take a deposit in order to book at any time, in particular, at the command of a tourist. Because the manager knows that if he does not do everything right, he will lose his regular tourist.
With the first contacts, the scenarios are completely different. Because every day managers see how prices not only go down, but how they go up. As flights close in half a day. How hotels become stop in season. How the exchange rate rises or falls by 1.5% per day (like this Friday). And then listen to reproaches - You ruined my vacation - no one wants.
All experienced tourists know - you need to have "your" TA.

HotLine, I'm afraid to offend your insight, but in years from the 95th year, several times a year. It is difficult to find a new hole and has long been decided on the floor. I checked out the subtle joke on the CPM and the vacation of yua, but the educational program and the sentence that sounds so pathetic only causes a smile. The search engine used by me also gives 8 out of 8, but does not clog the brain with fire garbage. Hope it's not a crime. Here, with the wishes of a career take-off
