Any Travel Agents here that can give advice about becoming one? General advice would be much appreciated and specific advice from any Canadian travel agents is even better as I am in Canada.
I am concerned that it may not pay what I currently earn and I wonder if travel agents are becoming less and less in demand due to people (like me) who do their bookings themselves online.
I checked out my my government's website to find the average salary for TA's and according to it, it does pay what I would need but according to one of the people I work with at my part time job who recently sold his travel agency, it pays much lower so I am unsure what is accurate.
I am going to the school Tuesday at lunch to discuss the program and ask a bunch of questions.
TIA.
