  Agreed.  I got my start working for Marriott International before striking 
  out on my own.  Your not going to make lots of money however, it is fun and 
  some of the rewards aren't bad either.

  True.  Unfortunately, in any industry there are scammers out there.  And the 
  travel industry is no different.  However, for anyone wishing to get into 
  the business, we would be more than happy to point you in the right 
  direction.

  I have been working as a travel agent for over 10yrs.  Its not as
  lucrative as it once was but it is fun.  I started out at an airline and
  have just learned thru on the job training which some agencies do as I
  work in a call center.  Some junior colleges have two year travel and
  tourism programs and there are some real travel academys.  What you have
  to watch out for is the fly by night internet sites that try and lore you
  in with promises of big money and all kinds of travel benefits.  A lot of
  them are pyramid schemes and card mills that basically sell you a fake
  Iata card.
