First time post... from a first time cruiser. I'm looking at Alaska in late May/early June 2017.
As a first time cruiser, I'm curious if there are ANY downsides to using a TA. It certainly seems easy to go in and have someone listen to what you want and whip up an itinerary. But I'm used to making most of my own travel plans and have done so for years.
From what I understand, a TA can have access to additional cruise freebees (gratuities, drinks, credits) beyond what the lines offer on their sites. But, is it any more or less difficult to cancel, say for medical reasons? Is there any other reason not to use a TA?
Thanks for any help.
TA: Any cons? (they look good so far)

Thanks for your reply. I figured that was the case. But I wasn't sure if using a TA included any other obligations (to the TA) that come in to play, that I wasn't aware of. So I assume there are no TA fees I need to pay (for the basic booking), and no obligation to the TA if I need to cancel. I will be using travel insurance.
