Tips
Continued from page 1.
• When you are getting an evalu¬
ation of the offer from a reputable
travel agent, among the questions
you should be asking are: Does the
tour operator belong to a consumer
protection plan that would protect
your payment in the case the tour
corhpan) closed? Mas the agency
ever sent a client on a tour with the
company"7 Also, make sure you are
informed of what additional taxes
or surcharges are involved, such as
airport and port taxes (when going
on a cruise).
• If speaking with a local travel
.agent is not convenient, consult di¬
rectly with ASTA's Consumer Af¬
fairs Department at 703-706-0387
as well as the Better Business Bu¬
reaus or Consumer Protection
Agencies in your state.
• If a charter flight is involved,
ask for the charter operator's name
and address and check their regis¬
tration with the U..S: Department of
Transportation. Office of Consumer
Affairs. 1-25. Washington DC
20590. Make sure your check is
made payable to an escrow account
( which federal law requires for
charters.
• If you're paying with a credit
card, don't give your information
to a company you have not yet re¬
searched.
• Be cautious with companies
that require you wait at least 60 days
to take your trip or require that you
select several dates of departure for
your trip.
Ruth's advice to avoid scams
like the one pulled on her group is
simple: "Be really careful inspect¬
ing the condominium/hotel that you
are staying in as soon as you arrive.
Report anything broken, torn or
stained. Take Polaroids of it. Make .
sure they can't pin it on you."
