Its really a shame, higher pricing and lower OBC.....but the demand is still high. When the demand goes down, they might change their minds.

Good for them. TA's do steer clients to certain lines and those that have steered them to DCL deserve to be compensated at their current commission level if someone re-books onboard and not at some discounted compensation level. DCL got multiple trips out of a TA's client instead of just one - they should be compensated accordingly. Interestingly enough, Disney just released a TA ABD commission incentive today for certain 2017 trips at a 16% level. I think tnshsms is right - it's all about supply and demand.

And rightly so! Utter nonsense to have a lower commission if someone booked onboard and then does all the follow through work.
