Number 1 Travel, Inc. A Virtuoso Agency
Specializing in ALL types of travel. Top 5 Reasons to Use a Travel Agent

1. It makes you proud to have a travel agent on your side. And we are!

Saves time
Did you know that over 20% of travelers that book online put over 5 hours into planning? With that statistic, I find myself wondering if they got the full vacation experience they were looking for? We all have busy lives; why not leave it up to the experts to plan your vacation and then you can enjoy your weekend or free time.

2. Expertise and knowledge
I understand that it's fun to look at all the vacation options at first, then reality may sink in that you have never been to that certain resort nor have you even heard of it before. Most travel agents have the opportunity to travel through the year learning about the destinations and resorts as well as attending trade shows and training. It's such a great feeling when I can tell a client a personal tip from experience about their vacation plan.

3. Real person
Oftentimes when calling the mass travel websites, you'll get an automated answering system or get passed from person to person. We know what a great feeling it is to get a person on the phone and, better yet, they make you feel important and that you're just not another caller. Also, if you should have any problems with your travels, then it's all the more important to speak directly to a person.

4. They think of the whole package
A "great" travel agent will start to think about how to make your trip more of an experience for you from the moment you called to discuss your vacation. For most of us, this is so important and it's what makes it not just a transaction. These key points of interaction are where you build that relationship and trust. Remember: it's not just about the plane tickets you need.

5. Saves you money
Many travel agents do not charge a fee to do the research and even book your vacation. Our knowledge to help plan your vacation is free! What a bonus. So, if you're thinking about a vacation, consider using a travel agent—one that is excited and honored to help you plan your experience.

For years, Southwest Airlines stood out as one of the most inclusive carriers for plus-size travelers. Their “Customer of Size” policy let passengers request an extra seat and get it refunded, even on full flights.

That ends January 27, 2026. From then on, plus-size travelers will have to buy a second seat upfront. Refunds will only be issued if the flight isn’t full, both seats were bought in the same fare class, and the request is made within 90 days.

So what exactly defines a plus-size traveler? Southwest states:

“Customers who encroach upon the neighboring seat(s) should proactively purchase the needed number of seats prior to travel to ensure the additional seat is available. The armrest is considered to be the definitive boundary between seats.”

Supporters argue this ensures fairness and safety. Critics say it creates a “fat tax,” adding financial burden and eroding Southwest’s reputation for inclusivity.

But this is bigger than just airline seats. It’s about dignity, equality, and how we decide who pays more to occupy the same space.

Here’s the real question many people are asking: does “plus-size” only mean obese, or could it also include anyone who’s simply tall, broad-shouldered, or muscular?

What are your thoughts?

The policy change is nationwide and goes into effect immediately, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said.
