Who owns "on hold" cabin, TA or me?

TA's own your reservation and they sometimes aren't willing to give up commission for cheaper pricing.

Sometimes when I see a crazy good price I sometimes put a hold on it as "Too Bee Determined birthdate 1/1/2001" and then transfer it to whichever one of my clients wants to snag it.

 

Biker, who wonders if @Ourusualbeachuses this method.

I've been known to put clients names on bookings I think they would like and then call and ask if they are interested.

I want to believe that isn't true. All the TAs I know are happy to help each other out. I know I always just want my clients to have a great vacation. I am always happy to re-rate if I can. I can certainly match any price. The difference between a $2000 and a $1000 cruise commision is about 80 bucks. I'm not willing to screw anyone over 80 bucks
