There are no shortage of discount sites out there that allow you to search for the cheapest airfare and get great deals on hotels. These sites are great if you are on a shoestring and have time to plan your itinerary but they are cheap because they cut out the middle man. For those who want a good price but who also want the planning expertise of a travel agency, Zicasso will soon be the place to go. They are currently in a private beta testing mode but soon you will be able to go to Zicasso.com and enter your destination and the number of days that you’d like to spend. Within 48-hours you will receive proposed itineraries and pricing from four travel agencies which you can peruse and then decide what is best for you. Everything taken care of leaving you more time to relax on your next vacation.

| Why it might be a killer | |||
|
|
|
This site will appeal to the segment of the population that value the planning expertise of a travel agency. It will also give agencies around the world access to the coveted US market. It won’t appeal to everyone but those who currently use travel agencies will surely appreciate the chance to pick and choose amongst various offers and the ability to get a good price without roughing it.

| Some questions | |||
|
|
|
Since the site is not yet live, the following question may have been already answered but wouldn’t it make sense to allow people to check certain activities that they are interested in? For example, most people go to the Alps for skiing but others are more interested in shopping and sipping hot chocolate in the hot tub.
