Creator's Key Takeaways
If you've taken 10 cruises, you've booked all of them yourself and you've never used a travel agent before, you do not need to use a travel agent if you don't want to.
They are going to be on the phone for 2 and 1 half hours with Disney so you don't have to.
Whether you use a travel agent or not, it's the same cost.
