A client mentions they have mobility limitations and uses a wheelchair. Which is the MOST important first step when booking their travel?
Answer: Verify accessibility features at every point of the journey, including hotels, transport, and attractions
Confirming accessibility at every touchpoint ensures the client's needs are fully met and prevents unpleasant surprises.
During a needs assessment, a client says 'I just want to relax.' What is the best follow-up question?
Answer: Would you prefer a beach resort, a mountain retreat, or a spa destination?
Probing with destination-type options helps the agent understand what 'relaxation' means to that specific client.
A couple is celebrating their 25th anniversary and wants a memorable trip. Which approach best reflects consultative selling?

Learning about past experiences and preferences allows the agent to personalize a truly meaningful recommendation.
A client traveling with an infant asks about airline policies. What should a CTA-prepared agent advise?
Answer: Lap infant policies, age limits, and fees vary by carrier and should be confirmed directly with the airline
Infant policies differ significantly between carriers, so agents must verify specifics rather than make blanket statements.
A client requests a gluten-free meal on a cruise. When is the best time to submit this request?
Answer: At least 48 hours before departure, or at booking if possible
Special dietary requests require advance notice so the cruise line can source appropriate ingredients and prepare kitchen staff.

Answer: Use a comparison approach, outlining the key benefits of each based on the client's stated priorities
Comparing options against the client's own priorities helps them make an informed, confident decision.

Providing tailored safety information and recommending protective measures demonstrates professional care and builds client trust.
