A travel agent assists clients with making travel plans. From helping clients settle on a destination to presenting them with travel and hotel options, a travel agent makes the process of traveling as easy as possible. A travel agent also has a general understanding of local tourist attractions and can offer itineraries and tours upon a client's arrival. Many travel agents have extensive experience with personal travel or have a history on a cruise ship or airline travel. They are usually hired by travel agencies, airlines or by cruise ships in order to assist clients in enjoying their time on vacation.
A high school diploma or GED is necessary to become a travel agent. In some instances, companies prefer individuals who are bilingual or have first-hand experience in the areas highly traveled. Additionally, a travel agent is assigned several clients at once, so the ability to prioritize tasks and top-notch customer service skills are essential in this role.
