I have been working as a travel agent for 2 months now. I have learned a ton. First and foremost, letting me work in a travel agency is like letting a gambler work in a casino. Truth be told, I did not realize that most people do not enjoy getting “into the weeds” of researching travel like I do. Second, even the amount of research I do for my own travel is pretty minimal compared to some of the stuff that our clients want. It is a little like putting together a very expensive 4 dimensional puzzle.
Next up for me is what they call a “FAM” familiarization trip to Universal Studios, Orlando. I get to go to Orlando, go to a training and tour of Universal Studios, tickets to the park, then a training on using social media with Universal Studios. I am also going to tool around Walt Disney World as well to do a couple of things I have never done before. (Which is not a lot) But I am going to go to Mickey”s Not So Scary Halloween Party. Stay tuned for pictures and videos from these events.
In the interim, here is a link to a video about where I will be staying….
