I want to book a bus through a travel agency in Bangkok, Thailand and the agent quoted me a 20% booking fee.

For booking through a travel agency for bus, train or other tickets, what's a reasonable fee percentage? I am mostly asking for an order of magnitude, I suppose it varies.



Best Answer

What it is worth depends on what is involved and what you are saving. In many cases the travel agency calls in the ticket reservation, then has to send a staff or courier to go get and pay for the actual ticket. So how much it would cost you in taxi fare and time is how much the service is worth. You can't assign an arbitrary percentage.
