Agent Fams: 'more Time And Single Rooms!'

South African travel agents have called for a revamp of fam trips, emphasising the need for single rooms, fewer site inspections and more free time to experience destinations just as their clients would.

Fam trips, designed to give travel agents first-hand knowledge of hotels and destinations, are often jam-packed with site visits and scheduled activities.

However, many agents argue that this approach is counterproductive.

Travel News turned to the OpenJaw Facebook community, asking agents what they would like to change or see more of on fam trips.

One of the top requests from travel agents is for single rooms during fam trips.
