Travel Jobs description
The travel industry offers employment in government tourism departments, immigration and customs services, travel agencies, airlines, tour operators, hotels etc. and many associated service industries such as airline catering or laundry services, guides, interpreters, tourism promotion, and sales etc.Work in the travel industry is essentially concerned with providing services for people who are away from home, on business, or holiday. Travel can be leisure travel involving package tours, pilgrim travel, adventure travel etc. or purely business. Work at every functional level in the industry involves dealing directly with people.
Travel agents assess the needs of tourists and businessmen and help them make the best possible travel arrangements from the many travel options available. Also, many major cruise lines, resorts, and specialty travel groups use travel agents to promote travel packages to the millions of people who travel every year.
Travel company personnel must be up-to-date on current rules and regulations and documentation required, in areas like cargo, ticketing and passports, visas etc. so as to correctly advice their clients, and to take care of the paperwork when necessary.
Travel careers are for individuals who enjoy working with people and welcome daily challenges. The industry is an avenue for people who love the excitement of travel. Good interpersonal skills, communication skills, sales and marketing techniques, empathy, perhaps being multi-lingual, computer literacy, office technology, and a sincere desire to continue learning after formal schooling are needed to excel in this industry.
