Hi Jeanie, I would love to set up a time to chat with you about becoming a travel agent. Last year I started my own social marketing business and I am planning on getting accredited and would love any advice!

I really love that you made a career out of something you genuinely seem to love! Very inspirational!

I admire your work and you're so lucky to have time with your husband!

Hi I just started and I have no clue what to do and there aren’t a lot of videos that explain much

Thank you I used this for a school project!

Can you share tips for someone just getting started? did you start with a host agency or start on your own from the beginning?

Great video! Thanks for the info. :) Interested in this field. Have you traveled a lot personally? Would you recommend it for a travel agent? Also, do you deal with a lot of angry customers?

Hi! Thank you for all the info. Question, I signed up a while back with Cruise Brothers, didn't get certified and didn't really go far. I just recently applied to a job post to get certified as a cruise adviser....what is your take on that? And what advise would you give? Than you! I currently work from home now but want to embark on something that I am passionate about.

Really enjoyed the video, thank you!

This was a great video! Look at the cat😍

If I’m having troubles with a TA - we are booking a destination wedding and some of our guest are saying she’s not getting them the best prices and she’s been rude - how do I handle that?! We already have a few that booked with her and worried it will get messy if we get a different TA. 🥺

thanks for finding this vedio.. i am started my bussiness as a travel agent while working as adh here in hk. im planning to work full time as a travel agent soon. i hope you can have some tips mam on how to do more advertisements about being travel agent. if have please let me know.. hehe. ill keep following your channel

Cool video! I bet it's soooo different now with this pandemic. I can't wait to start traveling more again. What's a kid travel vlogger to do? :(

The world of travel is so crazy during a Pandemic. I said, if I can make it through a Pandemic (it's been rough) I can make it through anything :) I recommend roadtrip this year! To many unknowns right now to really say what's going to be open and where airlines will be flying. Stay Safe & Stay Healthy!

Hi! I logged this video? Could you share what kind of school you went to for becoming a credited travel agent?

Loved your video, I set up 3 years ago and am struggling to get clients and help and advise

A family member of mine suggested I go to school to become a travel agent. Are there any suggestions you can give me? What questions do I need to ask myself? P.S. I have been working retail for 5+ years and E-commerce for 5 years.

I am interested in this! Where did you go to school for travel agency?

This is my husband who works for me. Made me smile.

thats a BIG diamond on that ring!

Excellent video.

You doing very well 👏 well done 👏!

Hello! So do you have to go to school for this?

I’m a soon to be Hospitality and Tourism major and I have been looking a ton into travel jobs! A travel agent is one of them, I’m hoping to get some traveling agent training somehow soon.

Do you have to be accredited and license to become a travel agent?

I'm considering taking a position with an agency, I'm just curious, how long does it take to book one client's vacation plans, on average would you say? How many clients do you tend to work with at a time, at a time when you're neither excessively busy or just don't have many clients (average busy-ness)? The agency that wants to hire me looks to be well reviewed and fairly busy, so I'm just curious about what to expect on a daily basis from a typical agency.

Hi Jeanine. Thank you so much for sharing your experience. Could you please tell me how many years does it take to become a travel agent at a college? Also, if you are a travel agent, could you be an agent for a airline? For example, my travel agent is polish and so she gets discounts on LOT Polish airlines more than any other airline. Would you please explain to me how this works? Thanks, and sorry for all the questions!

@JeanieMarie

It really can vary how long it takes you. You can get 2 and 4 year degrees if you do certain hospitality degree, there's some colleges that offer certificates and then if I remember right the Travel Institute is go at your own pace. Being an agent in the USA does not give you airline discounts, its a completely separate career from being a flight attendant. If you are a flight attendant then yes you would receive discounts from the airline you work for. Thanks for watching.

@JeanieMarie

3 жыл бұрын

That's a great question! Honestly, it will come down to how often you want to travel. You don't have to travel at all if you don't want to, however, I feel like first-hand experience will help you learn more. I know many agents who have families and are agents. I think it would be harder to do if you were a flight attendant--since you would always be on the go. But an agent isn't required to travel--that is your personal choice and what works best for you! :)

You need to get ur degree and then do a separate course from iata certified course institute to get ur certificate and then all u need is experience in different systems that connect to all airlines ..with maths and entries to learn each system has different entries for issuance ..date changes and refunds and many more ..so once u do that. .u need to get good experience to communicate with clients and blend in with the way they speak also sometimes that makes them comfortable to speak to u . And travel industry..u will have to keep learning or else u will be stale ..and it's hard to keep up . 👍 Best of luck . It's a great industry if u have patience
