How to become a travel agent without experience?
I want to become a travel agent but the only positions I’ve found were for experienced agents. So, how does one gain experience in the travel industry if nobody will hire you unless you have experience? It’s a catch 22!!! Any advice is greatly appreciated! Thanks!
I believe in pursuing dreams but I think you need to honestly think about another choice. The travel industry is dying. Most people (myself included) book our own travel via the internet. There is no need for travel agents anymore unless it’s a highly specialized tour. I have several friends who are experienced travel agents and they can’t get a job. They are looking to change careers.
