When planning closed-end travel (limited amount of time, had to return to a desk job), my wife and I preferred to anchor our time around a couple of experiences and let the rest unfold…an approach not well-aided by travel planning tools.

Particularly since my previous profession involved large-scale project management and planning, the last thing I think I wanted to do was a detailed plan of my holiday.

Now that our travel is more open-ended, we’ve developed our own home-baked systems(I use that term very loosely, by the way) to determine what’s next.

I must say that is a pretty interesting reason for your friend’s brand loyalty. I suspect there will always be people who are perfectly happy with doing things with a “safe” and well known choice like Travelocity. More and more people will start becoming comfortable with and using the new travel planning services though, and the travel planning services will be refined through user feedback too.

Excellent comments and assessment. People spend hours and hours on the internet trying to plan their vacations. Regardless of how much a person earns per hour, we all work 2080 hours (if not self-employed I mean, cause then it is half again more +/-) for that 1 or 2 weeks of vacation. Do you really want to entrust that valuable time to a gnome in a pointy hat who is the figment of a PR person's imagination? (!?!) He is not real. There is a voice-over and animation! And regardless of what people are led to believe from the commercials, he will not magically show up when something goes wrong. But the travel consultant is a phone call or email away to be your advocate!
