The almost 300% increase in the number of travel agencies.

Travel agencies have almost tripled in Portugal over the last decade, with growth of almost 300%, driven by the poor service of airlines that migrated to 100% automated digital systems. The article argues that this digitalization dehumanized services, leaving passengers frustrated with automated systems, paid helplines, and the absence of human support. Traditional agencies are experiencing a renaissance because they offer personalized assistance, mastery of fare rules and passenger rights, and crisis management during disruptions such as flight cancellations. In Madeira, where air transport is essential, this trend is particularly significant, with citizens and visitors opting for local agencies as a defense against hostile customer service from airlines.
