personal travel bookings with a TA?
Hi all

Am looking at next year's travel. For personal (eg non business) reasons, I'm going to be doing very regular weekly shuttles to or from Europe/London, on BA.

If I block booked and paid for, say, 45 roundtrips in a calendar year (with similar patterns, in any given week going out on day X back on day Y), could I save a) time b) money by doing it with a TA?

It'd come to around £5-7k on ba.com in ET - is there any benefit (beyond saving mouse/ hand/eye strain in MMB and booking pages in doing it through a Travel Agent, and then giving them one card number at the end for the 80-90 sectors it will cost?

All suggestions/ experience happily received

HiTA
