Travel agents, tour escorts, cruise line and airline personnel
plan trips and arrange lodging, modes of travel, and travel
services for customers. They may specialize in foreign or
domestic service, individual or group travel, or a specific
geographical area. Travel customer service representatives are
employed by airlines, cruise lines, tour companies, railroads,
and tourism bureaus to provide travel information and arrange
accommodations for tourists. They answer questions, offer
suggestions, verify arrival/departure times, and provide
literature on trips, excursions, sports events, concerts, and
plays. Travel, tour, cruise and airline personnel may confer
with customers by phone or in person, or plan trips for them in
response to mail requests. Not all courses in this program
transfer to all colleges. Students planning to transfer
should see an academic advisor or counselor before enrolling in
any course. |
