As a former travel industry professional with over a decade of experience, I’ve had the privilege of working behind the scenes with various booking platforms and travel tools. However, it wasn’t until I took a trip to Japan in 2018 that I realized the vast disparity between the prices travelers were paying and the actual fares available. I was shocked to discover that I had overpaid for my flights and accommodation by a significant amount, simply because I had relied on affiliate-ranked booking platforms. This pivotal moment changed my perspective on the travel industry and sparked the idea for Travel Sites.
