Is it worth becoming a travel agent?

Becoming a travel agent not only allows you to plan trips for others but also gives you access to special discounts on various aspects of travel. This is true for your clients, as well as yourself. Travel agents have access to a variety of discounted rates on airlines, hotels, and more, even when booking travel for personal use.

How often do travel agents travel? 

Overall, how frequently a travel agent travels depends on the individual. Some agents may take advantage of IATA discounts and FAM trips more often than others. Like anyone else, an agent's travel frequency can be influenced by their personal preferences, lifestyle, and financial capabilities.

Do travel agents make a profit? 

Travel agents earn a commission on selling travel, but the amount can vary depending on the supplier and whether they are affiliated with a consortium or host agency, which may take a percentage of their commission as well.
