Well done Monika for highlighting this issue in the Travel Industry that is becoming a major problem. Travel Companies should consolidate and agree on new terms and condidtions for the market in order to re gain the power of dictating conditions on customers, and on Airlines also. They should not use this factor as a marketing tool to compete each other.

IT IS THE UNHEALTHY PRACTICES AND COMPETITION OF TMC's MADE SITAUTION INTO SUCH BAD SHAPE. WHETHER WE ARE GETTING COMMISION OR NOT WE TMC's DO NOT NEED TO GIVE CREDIT TO THE CUSTOMERS OR CORPORATES. A COPORRATE WHO IS HAVING EXPANCES OF USD 1000.00 DEFINITLEY WILL HAVE BUSINESS TRUN OVER OF 100 TIMES. FOR HIM THE TMC's INVOICE AMOUNT IS PEANUTS.. THEN HE CAN EASLY PAY IT.. THEN WHY SHOULD WE GIVE CREDIT TO HIM??
