Didn't want to make a thread just for this and this one seems to be the best to potentially get an answer.

What kind of information do travel agents get access to that the general public could not? Are they able to access general travel history or individual passengers, by name bookings on a flight for individuals who are not their clients, etc?

Essentially, do they just get "x seats available x price" or can they pull any type of passenger data? I am not going to ask anyone to go internet detective for me through their jobs to track someones flight history, but I am thinking of writing the capability into a story if it exists in the real world.

So, no, travel agents have no ability to track someone's flight history past the history of the flights that person has booked through that particular travel agency.

Appreciate the speedy follow up. Thank you.

Nice to know our personal data is a bit more secure.
