travel agent query
 
From this board, I made my way to Fantasy Travel, who then got me to David at greeceflights. com. He has incredible prices on the Delta nonstop from JFK (like almost 50% off) and before I book, I just want to know if anyone has used this company before?

Thanks!

Hi, I am from Canada and am working with them online right now to plan my 9 day trip to Greece...So far, they have given me better service than any North American Company!!

Hi - I am using Fantasy Travel too! And I purchased my airfare through greeceflights.com....I had no problems! David was very nice/helpful.

jstockler May 13th, 2003 01:54 PM

Thank you both--this is surely one case where "if its too good to be true, it isn't" isn't!!

This really sems like all these "posters" are the same person advertising himself/herself.

FainaAgain May 13th, 2003 03:06 PM

Yes, stockler and mas advertise here, just click on their names, you'll see. Whom are they trying to fool?

jstockler May 13th, 2003 03:07 PM

I don't know about the other guys,but I'm me and not David.

jstockler May 13th, 2003 03:09 PM

Stockler advertises? Advertises what? Last I looked, I was a 48 year old mother of two teen age girls...the only thing I could advertise would be Thoughts on Remaining Sane During Household Estrogen Dissarray.

Sheesh.

Troll...

MAS16 May 13th, 2003 04:09 PM

What??? Geese -I'm so glad I posted for the first time on this board today and got a response like that...nice...makes me feel really welcome. I'm not advertising anything you MORON. If you go further down you'll see I posted a question about the hotels that I will be staying in during my trip this September. I really am using Fantasy travel - Litsa is my travel agent - and she is planning my wedding in Santorini and honeymoon...and I have already received my airline tickets from greeceflights.com. I happen to think that both of these places have very good service and highly recommend them.

TracyB May 13th, 2003 08:19 PM

Honestly, I got the idea to use Fantasy Travel from this forum...I have been emailing them back and forth for the past 2 weeks and they have given me really good service and prices..So believe what you want!!

Why don't you check the rules first before you do the free advertising:

This is absurd!! You must have some sort of a problem as I really am using Fantasy Travel, as a matter of fact, they have just emailed me my final itineray..I don't know why you are trying to cause unnecessary problems on this forum...A question was asked, and we answered for goodness sake!! And furthermore...Fantasy Travel has been recommended time and time again on this forum...Would you please give up on your ridiculous accusations!

I don't care if they are advertising or not, my curiosity got the best of me and I was impressed with their packages.

Since I never would have found out about it if not for this board, then Fodor's did the trick. It offered me a possible service to do my European tours with. Thanks jstockler!

MAS - welcome to the board. Don't let francophile bother you. He often comments that posts are trolls, I don't know why. He has nothing better to do, I guess.

Have a great time in Greece!

jstockler May 14th, 2003 04:15 AM

Thanks for your nice words, its hard to keep a grip on civility when francophile seems to have gone off his/her meds.


MAS16 May 14th, 2003 04:25 AM

Thanks kaudrey! I guess we just lucked out in getting this paranoid, angry person butting into our conversation - not sure why they care so much....get a life! I read a lot of posts before signing up and most of the ones I read were recommending hotels, restaraunts, services - I'm not sure why francophile decided to attack US. Either way - I will enjoy my trip!!

grandmere May 14th, 2003 07:30 AM

I mentioned Fantasy Travel on here w/in last couple of weeks to people wanting to stay at Volcano View Villas on Santorini. We used them for a package trip (we had heard about them thru the concierge at our hotel in Athens)to Mykonos and Santorini and were very happy with their services.

They are also mentioned on Matt Barrett's website: www.greecetravel.com

Maybe I'm being naive but I see nothing wrong with this post.

MAS16 May 14th, 2003 07:49 AM

Matt Barret's site is where I did a lot of my initial research on Greece - that is how I found Fantasy Travel and greeceflights.com. You're not being naive at all - I am a 25-year-old professional that lives in Connecticut (not Athens - where Fantasy Travel is located - I'm not even Greek!!) and this will be my first trip overseas. Can't wait!!
