Summary: | The travel trade is big business and still growing. More and more people take holidays to a vast number of destinations, and the volume of business travel is steadily increasing. This book offers an insight into jobs available in both the tourism and business sectors of this constantly expanding industry. Working in the travel trade often sounds glamorous and exciting, but work which involves such a high degree of customer contact can be very demanding. If you have patience, energy, and a sense of humour, then the travel industry offers a wide variety of rewarding jobs. Part 1 describes working for tour operators, travel companies and agencies, and tourist offices both at home and abroad, with a chapter devoted to tourism in the UK. Part 2 supplies information on practical aspects of getting into the travel business, with a section on entry requirements and qualifications, plus details of training courses. For further information there is a list of useful addresses. |
