I am a travel agent

I am a travel agent.... I have the advance degrees in accounting, public relations, marketing, business building, computer science, civil engineering and Swahili.

I am a travel agent.... Of course I remember the reservation you booked six years ago, even though you don't have a confirmation number and you think it was made under a last name that begins with a T.

I am a travel agent.... It's no problem for me to give you seven connecting non-smoking poolside suites with 2 king beds and 4 rollaways in each, and yes, it is my fault that the hotel does not have a helicopter pad.

I am a travel agent.... I speak all languages and have visited every destination.

I am a travel agent.... It's obvious to me when you book your reservation for Friday, you really mean Saturday.

I am a travel agent.... My company has entrusted me with financial information, and yet I can't tell you why your hotel bill for March 1989 had a 50p phone call because, of course, you shouldn't have to pay for calls.

I am a travel agent.... I understand that Joe Blow Ltd. is a vast empire and will make or break my agency.

I am a travel agent.... Yes, I am lying when I say there are no seats left at the lowest price.

I am a travel agent.... No, it's not a problem for me to quickly construct several more guest rooms at the hotel you want, and this time I will not forget the helicopter landing pad!

I am a travel agent.... I am capable of checking fares for three people, taking five reservations and answering fifteen calls simultaneously.

I am a travel agent.... I always know where to find the best vegetarian, kosher, and Mongolian barbecue restaurants.

I am a travel agent.... I know exactly what to do in all cities without spending money.

I am a travel agent.... I take responsibility for airline food, traffic jams, rental car flat tires, weather, hotel locations, and the national economy.

I am a travel agent.... Of course I can fit you into the hotel at the special corporate rate because you are affiliated with the Blackburn North Lawn Bowls club.

I am a travel agent... I am never offended when I spend 10 hours researching a 12 day Europe itinerary only to hear you say you "booked it yourself over the internet and saved £30!" I also never gloat when you call back to say the rate was sold out or that you are stuck in the middle of nowhere since they cancelled your flight and you cannot "call" your internet provider to be re-protected on another flight.

I am a travel agent... I love when people walk up to me at parties and out of the blue expect me to know the latest airlines fares from Melbourne to Ibiza via Byron Bay, the Maldives and Nairobi "off the top of my head".

I am a travel agent... I love that everyone assumes I get to travel everywhere for free and when I do get to take advantage of a perk people act like it is a sin against nature. If you ask me to get you the rate at my "travel agent discount" I will kill you.

I am a travel agent... Don't bother telling me any dates or cities since I'm a mind reader and already have the reservation in my crystal ball before you can tell me.

Besides all above; I smile, empathize, sympathize, console, cajole, up-sell, down-sell, cross-sell, perform, sing, dance, make coffee and fix the printer..................

I am your travel agent!

Lovely evening at the Du Vin Harrogate for the wonderful Azure Collection brochure launch after three years. Informative and fun presentations from all the suppliers and naturally Jayne and Anna. Azure is such an incredible specialist luxury operator who always go that extra mile.
3 years have passed since our last get together so lovely to catch up with “long lost friends”. We’ve survived and getting stronger travel is as resilient as ever so let’s keep on keeping on.
On a personal note thank you for the unconditional support love and friendship from Jayne O'Gorman Anna Baccanello Laura Gould it means the world to me and family.

The 5 star Hotel Faro a Lopesan Collection Gran Canaria will be welcoming my clients next month.

WW. When you’re thinking of retiring then a client sends a photo of their “best family holiday” and the hotel that I recommend was perfect. I may just keep going a little while longer until I’ve got them sorted for 2023😂. I’ve been in my industry for well over 50 years so I must be doing something right. ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏 as it’s the first time anyone has sent me photos of their trip.

Thinking of all my fellow travel industry specialists today. ❤️❤️

We’ve two weeks to save our beloved industry.

I feel for all my wonderful friends in my beloved industry. No support from Dithering Doris and his cronies yet they don’t mind seeing “people” cram like sardines onto British beaches whereas in Europe they are much better organised.
Me thinks political now and the need to keep us all in U.K. to recoup losses. Wouldn’t surprise me is furlough is extended and we can whistle goodbye to ending restrictions 21/06.

When we are ready it will be waiting for us.
