A template for travel professionals who create unforgettable journeys.
Travel agents plan and book trips for individual clients, families, corporate accounts, and group tours — handling flights, hotels, transfers, visas, travel insurance, and itineraries. They work in high street travel agencies, corporate travel management companies, online travel agencies, and luxury travel boutiques, reporting to a branch manager or account director. A typical week involves client consultations, researching destinations, calling consolidators for fares, processing bookings on systems like Amadeus or Sabre, and resolving issues for clients already travelling.

American Express Global Business Travel, TUI, Flight Centre, Kuoni, and Virtuoso all hire travel agents. Amex GBT focuses on corporate accounts and wants Amadeus proficiency, expense management experience, and the ability to handle large accounts. TUI values high-volume booking experience and upselling skills. Luxury agencies like Kuoni and Virtuoso want deep destination expertise — they expect candidates to have personally visited at least some of the destinations they sell. Flight Centre rewards sales performance heavily, so quantifying your annual revenue or top client spend on your CV is very effective.
