I'm a newbie certified TA and follow you all the time. One day when i'm not drowning in all the training with my agency, I want to invest in your systems. I wanted to drop you a line and say 'I love your new glasses!' Thank you for all you do :)
Thanks for that, I hate wearing glasses 🤓 😂
Where did u get certified?
I really appreciate this video! This is perfect! I'm currently a travel youtuber, and content creator and becoming a travel agent feels like the thing to do with how much I travel and how I organize my trips! I needed this!!
Awesome, I am glad you liked the content!
Hey, I’ve watched your UA-cams. Really good information.
Would this allow me to work independently? Or would I have to work under an agency?
Thank you for your candor. I can appreciate your advice. As someone who is interested in becoming a travel agent, there are concerns and many questions. Your words have validated some concerns. Thank you.
That is so awesome to hear. Let us know if you have any further questions! Have you taken our free masterclass yet? Here is the link: www.careersonvacation.com/masterclass
I am so happy I found this channel. I'm about to graduate college (YAY!) with a B.F.A in musical theater and going into entertainment is my dream but it's a scary one and I want to be financially responsable while chasing my dream. I've recently gotten a new found interest in traveling and think this could be a great first job for me.
Hi! That is amazing, congratulations on graduating; what an achievement! I can totally understand where you are coming from, I was a musical theater buff back in the day & my daughter is as well. I loved musical theater but I also loved travelling so here I am! Where is your favorite travel destination?
I’m so glad I happened across your channel. You are so knowledgeable! Thank you!
Welcome to the channel! We are so happy to have you!
Idk why these ppl make it sound so difficult. You can do this independent easy. It’s just about networking & meeting the ppl who are so busy they need your expertise to handle the travel stuff for them. I sell trips and adventures bcuz I’m connected through my other work as a full time photojournalist traveling all my life. I upsell the travel costs & make a nice % without even breaking a sweat.
Going independent can be overwhelming for some. For anyone looking to go independent and needing assistance, our award winning programs can help! 🦋
Thank you for sharing this content and your expertise. This is the first video of yours that I have seen, but I will be watching more and more.
Awesome! I am glad you like the content. Welcome to the channel!

Hi. I'm a tourism graduate from the Philippines. I have always wanted to show how beautiful small islands in the Philippines to the world. Do you think being a travel advisor is a good career? I already know ticketing offices here. I already know agencies who are offering tours. I already know someone who is a tour guide. All I need is to find people who is willing to pay me to arrange their travels. is the career travel advisor is what I need to be?
I also currently reside in California but I know how to connect to locals who are offering tours in the Philippines.
Hi There! Wonderful questions. It sounds like you would have a great network set up for starting a travel business. The Philippines could be your niche to start & you can always expand from there. You would have to put in the work on the marketing side to ensure you are marketing to your target audience but I think this is very doable especially because of your pre-existing relationships with vendors.

I’m really interested

I live in a remote area& am considering starting a travel agency here because I’ve had many ppl come to me asking for travel advice! But will the fact that I’m in a more rural area (less affluent) hinder how lucrative it can be?
Hi There! Wonderful question! You really can run a business from anywhere, you just need to set up your business & know how to market to your target audience. Do you have a niche you would like to sell? 🦋

Hi Cyndi! I'm currently unemployed and thinking about my future and what career path is best for me. I'm a big people person and a HUGE lover of Disney! My husband I and love to travel. We traveled to Asia for two months this past year and absolutely loved it. What advice would you have for someone new to this field and how to keep them motivated to be successful as a travel agent? :)
Callie - we see you all up in the comments! And that tells me you are super motivated to do this! First tip, is to invest in yourself. Whatever that looks like to you. Second, if you haven't already... we would love to invite you to take our Free Masterclass. It truly was designed with people like you in mind!
[wanderlustceo.com/new-masterclass]
Thank you, Cyndi for your guidance and assistance. I watched your Master Class on Wednesday and learned a whole lot. Unfortunately, I do not have the financial needs to invest in myself. However, that is something I will continue to work out. I appreciate you reaching back out. You've been a great help!@@wanderlustceo
But you are investing in yourself! You took the time to watch the Masterclass, and you're here on UA-cam learning. Investing in yourself looks different at different times. We will continue to be here to help you. A couple of other resources I want to be sure you know about.
Create a free account at www.wanderlust-ceo.com and check out our partner portal. We have a ton of resources there.
Make sure you are in our Facebook group and following all of our social channels.
We will be here for you along every step of your journey.
This is wonderful! You've been so helpful, Cyndi. Thank you for your help and guidance. @@wanderlustceo
Hi Callie! Absolutely, thanks so much for watching. Have you thought about being a travel agent yourself?
I am thinking about becoming a travel agent in 2026. Right now I am scheduled to start cna school in February and I want to give myself a year to settle into that job for learning something new. I am doing pre research though looking at different host agencies as I know I want to host. And thinking about what niche I want to specialize in. I am leaning towards historical /cultural travel with maybe a side specialty in Disney/ universal.

Been a CNA for 10yrs nd Its hella hard!! I quit.. I’m looking into being a travel agent!
@@kattbrown4228 my mom works as a rn in the hospital I want to work at. In the nicu that is where she works and I want to work there cnas don’t do a lot because the baby’s are to fragile for use to touch. So I don’t think I will be as over worked. Plus, I didn’t want to just jump into travel agent thing, and potentially fail, and then have no income. And I was looking for a job that I could get a full-time salary only working three days a week. Because I already own a side, dog sitting business, and if I worked five days a week, I would lose my clients and part-time jobs wouldn’t pay enough.
Hi I have worked a little in the travel industry and traveled a lot. I am interested in setting people up on volunteer travel trips and history travel trips, and maybe travel trips for at risk teens.I absolutely want to travel more too.Would this program be a good fit for doing these things?
Hi There! It sounds like you would be a great fit for our Careers on Vacation Program. I would suggest sticking to a niche first so you can get used to the booking process but you can always expand from there!

Hello, I'm new! I act as a travel agent and plan group travel for the trips that I go on with family and friends. The groups are usually large enough to qualify for group rates for hotels, cruises, etc. However, to qualify for those discounts, cruise lines will ask if I'm a travel agent. And while it certainly feels like I am, I don't have anything that says I am. For someone not looking to run a for profit business, but rather just help get better deals for friends, family, and my own travel, what would I have to do to become an official travel agent?
Hi There. Thanks so much for reaching out! From what I am seeing, it sounds like registering under a host would be the best option for you. This way, you can make commissions on your bookings while using a hosts booking numbers. They will take a small portion of your commission but at least you will be making commission! If you frequently book travel, I would recommend checking out a few host agencies & interviewing with them.
Hello, I have an interview tomorrow for a corporate travel consultant position at Emirates. I have cleared the aptitude test, and now I have to take the technical test. Can you help me with what I should prepare for the technical test in the interview?
Hi There. Every company will vary ,so I am not completely sure what kinds of questions they would ask during the technical test for Emirates. I hope your interview went well!
Hi, I went to one of the masterclass and applied, but didnt get in. I have questions as I am interested, is there a way I can contact you?
Hi There! Were you able to view the Masterclass? It is a 50 minute free class that can be started at anytime. Here is the link: pulse.ly/jq0ll59vbs

@wanderlustceo Yes, I attended the blueprints to building a portable travel business that was at 11 am on Wed 3, basically this morning and applied to the discovery call right after, I guess I wasn't fast enough. I didn't get in, but I did receive an email with 7 free things I can do to start. I just need questions on a good hybrid host to start out before event branching off into my own business. I don't want to go to a host and have a bad experience.
Totally understandable. In our Careers on Vacation Program, we do offer a list of vetted host agencies for our students to pick from. If you are having trouble scheduling a call with a member of our team, feel free to send me assistant Kalli an email & she would be happy to get your connected with one of our enrollment coaches! kalli@wanderlust-ceo.com
@wanderlustceo thank you so very much! I really appreciate this
Of course! 🦋

my resident country is india, can i join your course and start my online business or i need to take some certificates from my own country
Hi There! Wonderful question. As of right now, we service clients in the US, Canada, Australia & the UK. You would have to follow the rules/regulations of your home country if you are launching your travel business in that country. We have a great deal of knowledge when it comes to running & supersizing your business but when it comes down to the logistics of certificates & such, we are not familiar with all countries (just the ones listed above). I would suggest scheduling a call with a member of our team so we can answer any questions you may have so that we can match you with the right setup.

Hi I am Nishant Rawat from makemytrip it's India's no 1 travel portal
Welcome to the channel!
I really want to switch over to travel, the problem is I'm SOOO established in real estate and my income is so high that my hubby (and well lots of others) are not supportive of me changing industries. He feels like ... and I quote "You'll never be able to make the same money." ... This year my income goal was $1M but the market was slow so I'm ending at about half that. I guess my question is how long with lots of hard work does it take to get to the $200-$300k income bracket? I'm not sure about other professionals but changing careers is so hard the older we get.
Hi There,
Wonderful question. It really depends on how much time/effort you put into your business. To get 200K-300K in commissions you would have to sell 2M-3M in sales. But keep in mind that is just commission. Most people charge booking fees which is dependent on what you feel based on the size of the group, where they are going, how much work booking/research will be. It really just depends. I hope that helps!
Hey there! I am in the exact same boat. Been in RE since 2007, had great years but it has slowed down and not sure about next year. I love travel and planning and decided to research this new career (I'm not young). I have to decide in the next week as all the new year fees are due.
wow girl, im getting out of travel and moving to real estate today!! haha
