> Good morning all:
>
> Over the last few weeks, including at the National Convention of the NFB 
> in Orlando, FL, I have given a few talks about becoming a home based 
> travel agent.
>
> Mostly getting started, which host agency to get involved with which ones 
> to stay away from, NACTA (National Association of Career Travel Agents), 
> how much you need to start the business, Errors and Omission Insurance, 
> and a whole lot more.
>
> I did one at the Travel and Tourism Division meeting, where I also was 
> elected president of the division, and we will have our first board 
> meeting on Wednesday, August 24, 2011 at 7pm Eastern. For all those that 
> are interested I will give you the call in number for it.
>
> I believe David Andrews posted the information to the list already.
>
> Have done some individually with people who have e-mailed me about 
> becoming a travel agent as well.
>
> No the Travel Agent is not dead, especially the ones that offer service to 
> the blind and disabled.
>
> Also I have spoken at some job fairs, and done advocacy talks to many of 
> the suppliers as well. (Cruise lines, land destinations, etc.)
>
> I do not charge a fee for my service, unless I am asked to speak at an 
> event.
>
> Being an NFB member I am here to help if anyone is interested.
