Question

what type of compensation does a travel agent receive from suppliers?

Answer 1

The travel agents receive compensation from suppliers such as waiting time compensation, night ride compensation, and cancellation compensation.

Explanation:

• The travel agents from ola, uber and other companies usually receive compensation such as 10 percent commission of booking fees.  Usually, if the customer cancels the ride the travel agent will receive compensation for that ride.  They also receive time compensation for their work.
• For long rides, the travel agents will receive extra compensation for that. Because the distance for that ride will be long. So they will receive these types of compensations from suppliers.    

Answer 2

Answer: Hotel-only bookings and car rental companies

Explanation: These types of bookings typically pay travel agents 10% commission and that's that. There are small variances but car and hotel only bookings are probably the most predictable commission level in this whole mess.Feb 1, 2019
