Mr Stellhorn said: But that’s exactly what happens in his Accent on Travel. Before the pandemic, we were already growing our customer base by double digits, but now travelers are tired of dealing with the hassle of managing their own trips and are saving little to no money. Is not … Our existing clients and new clients who come to us every day.

“Our industry is in growth mode. 2019 was the best year ever for a travel agency, surpassing it before fall begins in 2022. Keeping our team the same size and hiring during the pandemic We expected business to return despite the fact that we were still there Need staff both new to the industry and experienced travel professionals looking to advance their careers ,” said Stellhorn.

“When you book a trip for yourself or a few friends and relatives, you may have a few wrinkles that you would have known in advance could only be fixed by a professional. When you get paid to consult, book and manage that same trip, the expectations and results are considerably higher. It involves looking not only for people who can speak English, but also for people who have a genuine desire to make people happy and who have a deep sense of curiosity and respect for us.A team-style work environment A world like is inherently gregarious in community, learns quickly, and has a work ethic that sticks to it,” she said.

“Yes, lifestyle can be great. I started at 29 and have been an advisor for over 33 years and have no regrets. It can take years of full-time work to become a highly skilled travel advisor, but the first impressions of answering calls and assisting certified travel advisors Even the director said that the guests are back and the best travel experience ever.This is enough of an initiative to advance additional training about the world we live in and the best travel opportunities out there. Learning as a travel advisor and cruise consultant is lifelong,” says Stellhorn.
