How do I become a legitimate travel agent?
#1
Has anyone ever been a travel agent or known a travel agent that made alot of money or that owned any kind of travel business and was successful? I would like to know what kind of license I need in order to be a legitimate travel agent. I am based in New York. Is there are school I need to go to or training online. What company should I affiliate myself with? Any travel agents, please give me the low down. Thanks.

I am a travel agent with YTB. The company provided me with a website that people can go on to and book there travel. They also provide all the training and support I need to be a successful travel agent. It is really a great program and I've already booked travel for some friends of mine and seen the commission. When you sign up with the company you get your creditials in a couple weeks after signing up. This is a very legitimate and trustworthy company that has been in the business for over 5 years. Also publicly traded. Watch this presentation for a little more information: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.travelproinsider.com">http://www.travelproinsider.com</a><!-- m --> my personal site is <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.ytbtravel.com/kuhlber">http://www.ytbtravel.com/kuhlber</a><!-- m -->
Contact me and I will answer any questions you may have and give you more information.

you should not have to pay for legitimate training. the way i became a travel agent was by getting an entry level job at the auto club and testing for their training program for travel agency. they pay for all the training and place you in a job.
