Have your ears been tingling? Phone ringing off the hook?
It’s been hard to miss the news fervor in recent months: Did you know? Travel advisors are in more demand than ever. The Wall Street Journal reports the appeal of travel advisors is increasing. Air Mail notes travel advisors are the trusted source able to cut through the you-know-what in an era of AI-generated listicles and shady reviews. Bloomberg last year highlighted LinkedIn data showing travel advisors were the fifth-fastest-growing profession.
Despite years of major hotel brands and airlines positioning their direct-to-consumer loyalty programs as key travel currency — and even online travel agencies like Expedia and Kayak taking a piece of the pie — these are no substitute for advisors. You’ve known it. We’ve known it. And now it seems like more of the world is waking up to it. Now’s your time to shine.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Luxury Travel Advisor.
