None of us want to brag about our age, especially those who can remember things like Ed Sullivan, the telex machine, or “Trudeaumania”. But, when you have a nice chunk of experience in the travel industry, maybe that is something worth bragging about. One of the things that distinguishes The Travel Group from most agencies is our consultants’ wealth of experience—297 years of it! In fact, most of our agents have been in the business of travel consulting for more than 10 years. Our agency boasts an average 16 years of experience per agent.
Just for fun, we recently polled our agents, asking them how many years they have been in the travel business. Here’s what we found:
Annie – 25
Corene – 7
David – 25
Denese – 6
Grace – 18
Jason – 16
Jay – 3
Linda – 7
Lindy – 5
Marie – 31
Martha – 31
Maureen – 9
Michele – 29
Regine – 17
Tara – 2
Shirley – 24
Mickey – 31
Teresa – 11
So, when you come up with a seemingly insolvable problem, there is a good chance that one of our people has been there before and knows what to do. When a hotel that you are viewing on the Internet looks good, but so temptingly cheap, an experienced agent will know that this is worth investigating more carefully. Or when you are wondering if a particular airfare is a good deal or not, our people will know. In travel, there are so many risks and so many occasions where you can be tricked into spending too much money or booking the wrong thing, it is a great idea to have an agent with savvy and experience.
