Advantages: No fuss service, flat fee for currency.

Disadvantages: None can think of.

I used American Express Travel to book my flights when I went to the States a
few years ago, and their service is excellent. It was my first trip abroad ever,
I had no idea about what I had to do, or how to get the best deal, but the staff
there made it all very easy. They compared all the flight dates and prices for
me and got me a very good deal for the time of year I was going. If I was
organising a non package holiday, they would definately be my first port of
call. Their advice was good and I had a hassle free trip. Regardless of where
I am going, I always use American Express travel for
my currency exchange. There are no hidden extras, you just go in, pay your fee
(usually 2ukp for currency and 1.5% for travellers cheques) and exchange the
amount you need. There's also no charge for exchanging currency back as long as
you keep the receipt. I usually find banks and travel agents don't give quite
the same service, and the fee is usually more expensive.
