There are very important reasons why the Travel Industry is looking for reliable Travel Coordinators. One of the major reasons is International Travel Safety has become a major concern. The Travel Industry has long since provided a way to help Americans Travel more safely. Again, this is an ancient old method of travel. Even the wagon trains traveling west were not exempt from this method. Group Travel Agencies are looking for Travel Addicts; I mean Coordinators all the time. I guess you are wondering why a Travel Agency would be looking for Travel Coordinators? Most people would say that would be the job of a Travel Agent. Wrong! Most Travel Agents do not travel that often. They are busy booking travel for their clients. They loose money every time they leave their office or computer.  Its the Travel Coordinators that travel often. Travel addicts are the people who arrange their life to accommodate last minute travel.  Travel addicts usually will pay the rent or mortgage, however the 401K or any savings or investment of any kind is subject to finance travel at any given time. A Group Travel Coordinator would have the following attributes: commitment, loves travel, likes people, have confidence in marketing themselves and their travel destination, can give attention to detail, love to coordinate, and can use common sense, then you qualify to Travel FREE. This opportunity works out best when you start out as a hobby and turn it into a part-time job then a full-time business.  It is not necessary to re-invent the wheel - do what others have done before you.  I know one retired man who started out selling an exotic travel party in the Caribbean each year.  Word of mouth took over, because people really enjoyed themselves,  and now he does not  have to work a 9 to 5 job.  The commission from booking 300 to 500 people a year into a 5 star resort on the islands each year,  pays off BIG. I suppose you are wondering how a Travel Coordinator just starting out travels FREE?   Easy, when you book 6 people or 15 people or what ever number the Travel whole seller sets; one person goes FREE. Example: Say you have 9 people that want to go to China. You have a mark-up of 15% on the wholesale price, plus you get one free hotel and air if 6 people sign-up. Your mother and father, sister and cousin, your girlfriend and her husband want to go and the lady at the church wants to go. And when another lady at the church found out from the Pastor that Mrs. J was going, so she decided to go.  (Your husband said if he wants to see China he will go to Chinatown!) So you now have 8 people, 9 counting yourself. You get one free travel pass and you can decided to lower your package price at the last minute because you did not need the extra 15% mark-up, or you can keep it for any emergency during the trip or you can use it to market your next trip. Its up to you! Travel Coordinator Trivia. If you can see a problem already with the above travel group, then you truly understand Group Travel.
