Tourism & Travel

Hi,
After completing Diploma in aviation, hospitality and travel management from Frankfinn you could explore sectors such as ground staff, cabin crew etc. Aviation Industry typically is divided into airlines for passengers (life) and cargo (non-life). Ground functions include Airport Operations, Reservations and ticketing and even sales and marketing. You will have opportunities with numerous travel agencies and direct airlines for reservation and ticketing opportunities. You also have the option to work with airlines for airport operations (ground handling), travel counselor/ consultants, direct sales, and quality agent. With many private airlines operating in the country and the volume of air traffic growing, opportunities abound in this field. There are different certificate and degree courses for your further study in Hotel management, travel and tourism. A small Google search will pull out a lot of such courses available in your city. Aviation being a broad field, there are many courses and training programs on offer for you. Depending on your aptitude and career interests, you can enroll in a suitable course offered. Thank you.

Well, it is not that easy to pursue a career in travelling and not everyone can achieve it in the first go. Below are few things that I think one should possess to become a host in these international travel networks:
Good communication skills - verbal, kinesics & proxemics. Good vocabulary
An inward flowing passion to travel and experience 'never like before' adventures. Should be up-to-date on general knowledge - specifically the historical specifics of places etc. (Once you land on the job you might have fact checkers, but to land there you should do some homework)
Should have traveled many places atleast within the home country so that you can show yourself as one who is aware of the travel culture and someone who has the love to do it. Should be flexible with time, place and most important - MONEY (not all such jobs are well payed, at least in the initial days. ). Your perks will be free of cost travelling. Should have minimal / no personal commitments. This is the biggest barrier - many suppress their love for travelling or get stuck at this phase. I have seen/experienced travel plans being cancelled or postponed infinitely as buds. Overcome all these, keep exploring options and new places every now and then. If your luck is with you and you land in your dream job, do give me a call once :) Would love to hear the experience. All the best & Happy Travelling!
