How to Become a Travel Agent: Everything You Need to Know

A re you great at finding reasonably priced flights and hotel rooms? Does making itineraries and solving booking issues come naturally to you? If your answer is yes, you might want to consider becoming a travel agent. And if you're the designated "trip-planning friend," you're already halfway there.

You might think the the profession is outdated, but that's not what the data shows: According to the American Society of Travel Advisors (ASTA), 50 percent of travelers are more likely to use a travel agent now than they were in the past. Not only are travel agents needed, but the career's earning potential can be impressive, depending on the type of agent you choose to be. Use this guide to learn how to become a travel agent and kickstart your journey into a unique career.

RELATED: 26 Best Trip-Planning Hacks Straight From Travel Agents .

What do travel agents do?

A travel agent's job is to ensure their clients have the best travel arrangements. Using their expertise, they offer advice and essential details about your trip, make your reservations, book flights and hotels, and manage your travel plans overall. Any hiccups regarding your accommodations are handled by them, and they are the best at finding money-saving deals. Travel agents prioritize your needs, like your vacation schedule and budget.

Their goal is to provide peace of mind throughout the trip-planning process so you can get the most out of your vacation.

What credentials do you need to be a travel agent?

You don't necessarily need a degree to become a travel agent, but getting some training within the field could be in your best interest. This not only makes you an attractive candidate to employers and agencies who may require a form of certification , but also helps you appear more qualified, which can help further your career in the long run.

Even though there might not be a degree in "travel agency" per se, you can opt for a related program like business, economics, or hospitality instead.

What do you need to become a travel agent?

There are different ways to become a travel agent, but anyone hoping to break into the field should definitely keep the following three points in mind.

Decide what kind of travel agent you want to be.

Having a specific focus on the kind of travel experience you want to provide allows you to build the knowledge and resources to best help those specific clients. Suppose you want to work in corporate travel: Building your skills according to your niche clientele and field will help you sharpen the skills you need to develop your expertise.

Learn about the travel industry and its trends.

The travel agency field is constantly shifting, so it's important to stay up-to-date on industry changes and trends to know what you should be offering clients. People's preferences are ever-changing, so knowing what's hot and what's not is crucial. Spend time learning which places are popular and unpopular based on the season, or which restaurants are staple visits. This shows a solid and up-to-date understanding your clients will appreciate.

Build your communication and interpersonal skills.

A large part of being a travel agent is advising your clients and earning their trust, which doesn't happen overnight. Presenting yourself as knowledgeable and approachable can encourage them to trust your judgment and recommendations. This is especially important if you're not working with a travel agency, because you'll have to rely more on your brand and relationships instead of leaning on a company's reputation.

Maintaining a healthy balance of communication between you and your clients is also essential, which means scheduling phone calls, in-person meetings, keeping up with emails, and any other form of communication your client prefers.

Get certified if you can

Getting a certificate can be pricey and cost hundreds of dollars . So, if this option is not feasible for you, that's understandable. However, while certification isn't a requirement to become a travel agent, it can certainly help you throughout your career. Here are a few certificate programs to consider.

Certified Travel Counselor

This Travel Institute certificate requires at least five years of experience and a Certified Travel Association certification. This course focuses on marketing and building consumer relationships. CTC costs $550 to complete the course and $600 for the CTC Fast Track.

Certified Travel Industry Executive

CTIE is also backed by the Travel Institute and requires at least five years of field experience. This $550 program includes courses on travel business, marketing management, bookkeeping, and travel law.

ASTA Verified Travel Advisor

This certificate is given by the American Society of Travel Advisors and teaches applicants about the legalities of travel and how to solidify relationships with consumers. The nine-course program also focuses on ethical travel advising, agency law, and travel agency compliance.

For ASTA members, the course is $399, and for nonmember independent contractors, it's $598. Travel Advisor nonmembers pay the steepest price, which is $729, and $179 for recertification.

How much do travel agents make?

According to Indeed , travel agents make an average of $53,924, and salaries can range between $30,131 and $96,506, depending on where you live. But other factors can affect an agent's earning potential, like working independently instead of for a travel agency.

A travel agent's income also depends on their area of travel. The Hotel Agency Review 2023 report revealed that corporate and luxury travel agents earn much more than agents who focus on Disney and cruise trips.

Your experience level can also impact your earning potential, as agents who have worked in the field longer are typically viewed as more qualified.

Do travel agents get discounts on flights?

Being a travel agent doesn't automatically mean you get tons of discounts and deals, but they do have access to perks that can help make planning trips easier and less expensive. Travel agents have the inside scoop on reduced rates because of their relationships with hotels and airlines. As a result, agents share these negotiated prices with their clients to help them save. Agents can, of course, also benefit from this insider knowledge and save money on their own trips.

Thanks to their agents, clients can enjoy luxury accommodations at high-end hotels like Hyatt Privé, Hilton Impresario, Marriott STARS&Luminous, Four Seasons Preferred Partner, and Mandarin Oriental Fan Club, to name a few. These perks range from spa services and later checkout times to room upgrades and complimentary breakfast.

How do you make money as a travel agent?

There are several ways a travel agent can make money in their field beyond selling travel packages or working for an agency.

Travel agents can charge a service fee, which is a base pay clients cover along with any other charges.

Travel agents can also make commissions from their contracts with hotels, tour/excursion companies, cruises, car rental services, and airlines. Add-ons like insurance can also help boost an agent's income, if their client wants it.

Booking group tours can increase a travel agent's earnings because their commission is based on how much their clients purchase, so more people means more accommodations. For example, booking travel for destination weddings or family reunions is an excellent way to book multiple hotel rooms. It's such a lucrative strategy that some agents make group booking their niche, because managing just a few a year can bring in a substantial profit.

RELATED: The Best Day to Book Flights for Your Next Getaway .

Being a travel agent comes with many perks, but ultimately, becoming one takes a lot of dedicated effort. Taking the time to learn about the travel industry is a great way to expand your tourism knowledge and consumer communication techniques. Refining your skills and becoming certified is one of the best ways to attract and retain clients.

So, if becoming a travel agent sounds like the career for you, join this community of globetrotters and combine your love for adventure, great deals, and helping others plan impressive getaways.

Advantages of Using Travel Insurance Agents in 2024

with our partner, Faye

Tori Addison is an editor who has worked in the digital marketing industry for over five years. Her experience includes communications and marketing work in the nonprofit, governmental and academic sectors. A journalist by trade, she started her career covering politics and news in New York’s Hudson Valley. Her work included coverage of local and state budgets, federal financial regulations and health care legislation.

Travel insurance is an important part of vacation preparation, but many people leave it to the last minute. Whether you’re unsure about the kind of coverage you need for your trip or need to find specific coverage for certain activities, sifting through offers from travel insurance companies can be a confusing and time-consuming process.

When you buy travel insurance, you’re covered for a range of situations that can alter your vacation to the point of you losing money on deposits and prepaid packages. It covers situations from trip cancellation to baggage loss. The last thing you want is to end up with a policy that doesn’t give you the coverage you expect, which is where travel insurance agents earn their money.

Travel insurance agents are a special type of travel agent, one that recommends specific travel insurance policies and helps travel clients organize personalized policies to suit their vacation plans. In this article, we explain the major advantages of travel insurance agents to help you decide whether to use one to purchase travel insurance.

It may seem counterintuitive, but as a traveler, you typically don’t pay your travel agent. Instead, agents earn their money from commission on trips they sell, and that includes travel insurance packages.

Expert Advice and Guidance

One of the primary advantages of travel insurance agents is their specialized knowledge of a range of travel insurance coverage options. They possess meaningful experience working in all aspects of the travel industry and know the fine points of travel insurance. They’re an ideal resource for questions about the kind of policy you need.

Some travel insurance policies are tricky to understand. They have exclusions, add-ons and specific reasons why you can make a claim. A travel insurance agent can tell you about past and current clients and their experiences with filed claims from the various insurance companies they deal with.

They can tell you which insurers are easy to deal with — and which are not. Often these agents have experience selling insurance from several companies. In addition, agents have experience with industry trends related to insurance in the post-COVID-19 area. Almost all travel Insurance companies made changes to policies in the wake of the pandemic. That’s the kind of information that can put you at ease with an insurer and a policy.

Personalized Service

When you organize travel insurance for yourself, you usually end up with a standard trip protection policy. One more benefit of working with a travel insurance agent is that you’ll receive a personalized service that often means more comprehensive travel insurance.

A travel insurance agent will listen to your travel needs and take the time to understand what your vacation will involve and what coverage you need. If a family member or anyone in your travel party has medical conditions, agents can advise you on the appropriate coverage for any medical costs that might come about because of pre-existing conditions that need medical attention while abroad .

By taking the guesswork out of travel insurance and providing a personal service, a travel insurance agent ensures you get exactly the coverage you need.

Time and Effort Savings

Most of us are used to shopping for car insurance, homeowners insurance and renters insurance. Travel insurance is a lesser-shopped insurance, which makes having to pick the best trip insurance on your own daunting and sometimes frustrating. A significant advantage of travel insurance agents helping with your travel arrangements is that they can save you a lot of time and effort and make the lead-up to your vacation more relaxing.

A travel insurance agent will handle policy research, do the comparison shopping and prepare the paperwork. This is especially useful for travelers pressed for time before their trip or who need help sorting specific assistance services.

Claims Assistance and Support

The final advantage, and perhaps the most important benefit, of using travel insurance agents is that they can help you during the claims process. If you experience a trip interruption, flight cancellations, lost luggage, travel delay or even something as serious as a natural disaster or accidental death , you’ll get agent support as you submit a claim and have access to an expert who can advise on the process.

Whether you’re trying to claim reimbursement medical expenses, a percentage of your trip cost or claim some of your travel insurance benefits, a travel insurance agent can act as an advocate while you’re making a claim and help to navigate potential challenges. They’ll have a lot of experience making claims, which can be incredibly valuable when the process is long and complicated.

The Bottom Line: Should You Use a Travel Insurance Agent?

Finding and purchasing travel insurance is a key part of preparing for a vacation, and using a travel insurance agent is one of the best ways to ensure that you end up with a policy that will offer travel assistance and medical coverage if something goes wrong while you travel. You might end up saving some money if you do the work and find a provider yourself, but a travel insurance agent can make this search process faster and more straightforward, offering expert insight and advice on how to get the best possible coverage.

You should use a travel insurance agent if you’re new to purchasing travel insurance, you need a particular type of travel medical insurance , or you’re pressed for time and want to find the best insurance deal without having to do all the research yourself. Not only will you benefit from using an insurance agent to choose the best policy, but they can also offer valuable advice and support if you need to make a claim, helping to ensure you receive the reimbursement you’re owed.

Frequently Asked Questions About Using Travel Insurance Agents

Why should i use a travel insurance agent instead of buying online.

Using a travel insurance agent is a better option than buying travel protection online because you get a much more personalized service if you need to make a claim. If something goes wrong with your trip, you have a professional helping you fight to get your insurance claim. Often agents provide email addresses and phone numbers of insurance company representatives to help push your claim through. It will save you time sitting on hold on the phone or waiting for an email reply.

How do travel insurance agents get compensated?

Travel insurance agents get paid by commission. This means they get a portion of the profits of every sale that they make. When an agent gets a customer to purchase insurance, they’ll get a percentage of the travel insurance cost as payment from the provider that the customer chose.

Can travel insurance agents help with last-minute travel plans?

Typical travel agents are useful when you’re looking for insurance for last-minute travel plans. They can make the process of finding and buying insurance faster and less stressful. Insurance agents, specifically, may have more experience securing a specific travel insurance plan to give you more peace of mind, whether it’s trip health insurance, airfare protection or emergency medical evacuation coverage.

Malaysia Airlines and Amadeus deploy NDC content for Indian travel agents

This marks yet another milestone in the technical partnership.

Malaysia Airlines and travel technology solutions firm Amadeus recently strengthened their partnership through the deployment of the former’s new distribution capacity (NDC) content to travel agents in India.

Enrolling in Malaysia Airlines’ NDC platform provides significant opportunities for travel agents,  as it grants access to exclusive lowest promotional fares and a suite of value-added services such as ancillaries including extra baggage, seat selection and lounge access with attractive rates.  

This also gives travel agents a competitive edge to offer exclusive deals for Malaysia Airline’s customers both on the NDC platform and through the airline’s official website.

A crucial part of transformation

Malaysia Aviation Group (MAG) chief commercial officer of airlines Dersenish Aresandiran said of this development: “Malaysia Airlines’ adoption of NDC is a significant step towards modernizing airline retail. Our partnership with Amadeus has been crucial in achieving our transformation goals. With NDC, we look forward to enhancing the shopping experience and allowing customers to personalize their travels, supporting our vision of becoming Asia’s leading travel and aviation services group.”
