Back in July I enrolled in the Travel Specialists Career Program with Penn Foster and I'm really enjoying learning about the travel industry. They had modules on North American/International Air Travel, Geography, Culture, Hotels , Cruises, Rental Cars, Trains and now coming up I will be taking the Sabre training program.

A lot of the information I learned from FlyerTalk and other sources. When I was 11 I was interested in the Travel Industry and learned about EasySabre and got the opportunity to try it out. I also enjoyed reading the OAG and viewing online resources.

My intention is to join a Host Agency and specialize in the cruise industry as well as plan trips for individuals with special-needs. It would be my dream to work onboard Cruise Ships or Airlines as their Special Services Coordinator assisting passengers with disabilities as well as book trips.

I look forward to FAM trips, touring cruise ships, airports etc. I know the travel industry is changing but I know that my passion will lead me to the right position. I'm even looking at various options such as corporate travel for Silicon Valley Biotech Companies, Meeting Planning, Tour groups etc.

I know I will take advantage of all the benefits of the travel industry flying on premium airlines and getting as many discounts as possible.

I can't wait to learn Sabre and how the database system works. I also plan on joining ExpertFlyer and KVS tools as well.

Any tips to help me with my future career in the travel industry are most appreciated.
