Summary/Abstract: Because travel agents receive compensation from travel suppliers, there is a certain degree of loyalty to suppliers rather than consumers. Travel agents are fiduciaries subject to a high standard of care. A travel agent, consequently, has special duties and obligations to clients. The article refers to civil liability of travel agents caused to their clients according to law in the United States of America. The paper will analyze different American courts judgments.
