How to become a travel agent frequently asked questions 

Are you a legitimate company?

Yes, absolutely. As an independent travel agent, I operate under the support of a fully licensed host travel agency that has been established for over 30 years. When you start your travel business through our programme, you’re backed by a long-standing, trusted name in the industry.

What experience do I need to join?

None at all. You don’t need any previous travel experience to get started. From day one, you’ll receive full training, ongoing support, and personal guidance from me to help you build your confidence and understand how to become a travel agent.

How long does the training take?

The initial mandatory training takes around 1.5 hours to complete. You’ll also be introduced to additional training for the back office system and supplier platforms. All training is flexible, self-paced, and designed to fit around your schedule — because learning how to become a travel agent should work for you, not the other way around.

How restricted are you on bookings?

As an independent travel agent, you’ll receive your own IATA licence and ABTA number. This gives you the freedom to connect with hotels, suppliers and travel providers all over the world. You’re not limited to one system or brand — you can work directly with global partners and earn commission on your bookings.

What do I pay to join?

There’s a one-time sign-up fee of £156. This gives you access to everything you need to start booking travel and earning commission, including full training, your own travel website, marketing tools and our network of preferred partners.

After that, there’s a monthly fee of £46 which covers unlimited support, customer service and continued access to the booking systems and resources you need to grow your travel business.

What are the targets I need to meet?

There aren’t any. You’re in control of how much you work and how fast you grow your travel business. After completing the initial training, it’s entirely up to you how much more you choose to do. There are no contracts or pressure, and you can cancel at any time if it no longer suits you.

Can I do this alongside another job?

Yes, absolutely. Many members run their travel business part-time alongside another job, or in a way that fits around family life. You choose the hours and the pace, so you can build something that works alongside your existing commitments.

How do I take payments?

You don’t need to handle any personal payment details yourself. Instead, you’ll send clients a secure payment link provided through the system. It’s simple, safe and designed to protect both you and your clients.

How do I sign up?
