Virtuoso Agent Chicago
 
I have been reading more about Virtuouso benefits and would be interestd to work with a reputable agent in Chicago. Does anyone have any recommendations? Thank you.

I agree, I am more interested to find the best agent versus one in Chicago. DavidO is very impressive.

Please help me with this. I have been traveling for 15 years and booking all of my own trips. What would be the benefit to using a Virtuoso agent? Are there minimums? Do they typically do regular business flights and hotels or are they best used for extensive leisure trips, cruises, etc.?

Thanks

I usually book everything myself, but I use my agent for cruises. Some lines discourage self-booking by making it unnecessarily difficult. Also, a good agent can occasionally pull off an unadvertised discount or upgrade.
