User experiences still has a massive impact on how other consumers book their holiday – a work colleague has returned back from France, she drove down to Dover, and got the ferry to Calais, then travelled to her ‘villa’ that she had booked independently, just outside of Paris.

On arrival her ‘villa’ turned out to be a house which had not been stayed in or cleaned for months, it was damp, dirty, and they booked into a hotel instead. As she was telling other work colleagues her experience a number of them said that they were thinking about booking their holiday independently, but they will now probably book with a travel agency.
User experience is powerful..
Have you had a bad experience when booking independently?

This is a great site. Would you be interested in exchanging links? My blog is focused on art, media, travel and more.

@ Eamon
Thanks for the kind comments.
I don’t deal in link exchanges as all of the links generated are from other sites linking to me automatically.

Yes, try and pull a fast one and I’ll stop using the company again. I had a massive arguement with Manos today. They tried to make me sound like I didn’t know what I was talking about.
I won’t be booking with them again.
