"It provides concrete examples of ways that agencies can improve and enhance their business operations and open up new sources of revenue."
Along with exploring e-commerce the report also recommended that travel agencies look at setting up partnerships with related business to provide one-stop services for customers. Currency exchange, insurance, and cargo/freight forwarding options were listed as a few examples.
