What is a commissionable booking?

A commissionable rate is a term for a travel agent. When a travel agent books most hotel rooms, the hotel pays the travel agent a commission, usually 10%. However, when a travel agent books some highly discounted rates then the hotel does not pay the agent a commission. In these cases the travel agent just charges the client a rate that is slightly higher than the rate they are paying the hotel. So those rates which your travel agent will get commission are called commissionable rates. It's not anything that travellers need to worry themselves with.


Do travel agents earn commission on sales or are they paid by the hour?

Actually, the answer is, "yes." I was, until this past June, a travel agent for 16 years. The cruiselines, tour companies, hotels and car rental agencies pay travel agencies a commission for selling their products. The airlines, by and large, do not, hence the service fee attached to airline ticket transactions. The agency, not the individual agent, collects the commission. So, if your travel agent is self-employed, he/she is paid strictly on commission. If your travel agent is employed by an agency, chances are most likely that he/she makes either a salary or an hourly wage, plus some sort of bonus based on sales volume. Since the price you will pay for your travel purchase does not differ whether you purchase from an agent or direct from the travel provider, your best bet is to find an agent you trust in a well-established agency, use a credit card for your protection, and take advantage of the resources, personized service and wealth of knowledge your travel agent can provide you. It is essentially a free service to you. here it is in simpler words yes

What is commission levels in travel and tourism?

The travel agencies used to make their money by selling airline tickets to a customer... and adding a commission to the price of the ticket. That was paid by the airline or the ticket-buyer. It was their payment for a service rendered to the customer (and a service for the airline since the airline wants to fill the planes). If the commissions are low, it is cheap to use a travel agent. it might save a flyer 1 hour on the phone to the airline. She just calls the travel agent to do that. If commissions are high, a buyer will avoid the travel agent. The airline will avoid the travel agent. Unless the agent does enuf extra work to justify the high commission.
