Travel agents usually work in offices, but many now work remotely from home. They often use phones and computers to help their clients plan trips. Sometimes, they travel themselves to learn more about different destinations.

 Travel agents help people plan vacations, business trips, or special getaways. They book flights, hotels, cruises, rental cars, and tours. They also give advice about places to visit, what to pack, and how to stay safe while traveling.

 Someone who loves travel, helping others, and learning about the world is a great fit for this job. A good travel agent enjoys problem-solving and making people happy by planning amazing trips.

 Travel agents need to be good at talking to people and listening to what they want. They should be organized, detail-oriented, and know how to use booking software. It's helpful if they speak more than one language and know about different countries and cultures.

 Travel agents in the U.S. usually make between $30,000 and $60,000 per year, but some can earn more, especially if they run their own business or specialize in luxury travel.
