Having an agent that is looking out for your best interests is important. As an example, if one were to refer a person to the internet to book air travel as it is less expensive than going thru a travel agency, then I would consider the agent is looking out for my best interests. The same goes for an agent that provides options or alternatives.

IMHO.
