10- The request is to give (cheaper)
The quality of tourist services varies greatly from country to country. Normally, where you’ll have a little more trouble will be in Italy or Spain. Some tourism officials of these countries often do not have very good mood. However, one must be calm, be patient and although the official tourism is rude to try to be nice, because that might help you get what you’ve come here looking for: obtaining a service (change of ticket, better train itinerary, hostel, etc.) cheaper.
Be polite and keep cool always help: I discuss below two examples that occurred to me. One in Madrid and one in Paris.Paris. Charles De Gaulle International Airport. I got off the plane tired, not hostel, not knowing what to do. In a hallway, I see a form of tourism where people line up around 9. As I row, I notice how the girl who attends must deal with people who sometimes are hysterical, but does so with a smile. Only she is serving each in his own language (English, French and Castilian).
When my turn finally comes, I am greeted by France with a smile and expose my problem. Always very friendly and smiling, spoke to six or seven places until I got a hostel. I also printed a map of how to get there and gave me different advice. In France are very concerned with the tourist. The services we provide are mostly free and the people entrusted with the care normally speak two or more languages.
Madrid. Offices known airline. It’s my second time there. Offers to change my return date but at a rate slightly higher than I expected. The first time I was there, the girl who served me was annoyed and not wanting to do the job. Now I attend a lady with whom to empathize from the beginning.
We talked about how beautiful it is Madrid of Mexico and then shot him directly what I do: change my return ticket to Mexico, from Milan to Madrid. I do not remember the exact quantities, but after a conversation with the lady, began to investigate carefully on the basis of computer data and found a much cheaper rate than it had to pay. Sometimes there’s luck and chance and on a trip, they usually go hand in hand with a good attitude. As they say, the request is to give.
If you are a teacher, student, belong to an organization of professionals, trade union, etc.., Can investigate whether there is any body that can help you get discounted or free care to lodgings events. From the outset, if you are young or teen in the travel agent will give you names of agencies to which you afiliarte (with a small fee) and that will be useful to make cheaper and enjoyable your journey.
For teachers, there is an international teacher card offered by the ISIC in addition to offering discounts and bonuses, has an emergency medical service that (hopefully not) can serve you in your trip, plus discounts on phone calls and other services. Being a student and teacher input, allows museums and discounts at some tourist sites, so you get an international card certifying your professional or student status will be helpful.
