www.baumhedlundlaw.com – Just months after the tragic airplane crash of Continental Connection Flight 3407 at Clarence Center, NY new details about the pilot and co-pilots background have been released, including their low salaries which have shocked the public. Former Comair Captain John Greaves, who is now an aviation accident attorney, explained the effects such a low salary can have on pilots. For example, the hubs of some of these regional airlines are in high cost of living areas where it would be nearly impossible to maintain a decent living. Therefore many of these pilots travel hundreds of miles to keep their jobs. Mr. Greaves says the attitude of these smaller air carriers like Colgan Air, that are paying pilots such small salaries but offering flight experience to move on to the major airlines, is not safe and the public deserves more. His alternative would be to pay regional pilots good salaries just like you do the majors and you keep the pilots…you dont have them for a stepping stone; you keep the pilots. They get their experience there; they stay there; they make careers there. Youre going to have a much safer airline that way.

Question: Does Anyone know how I can work as a travel agent from home thru a company that is secure income?
I am looking to become a full time travel agent. However, I have come across slim to none jobs in an office so i thought of doing it out of my home. I came across a lot of companies where you invest money and work as an independent agent. I am looking to leave my current full time job and do this full time so i need something secure which is why i want to go thru a company. If anyone knows of a company that does this i would really appreciate the help!

You do rather need qualifications to be a travel agent – especially IATA (International Air Transportation Association).
You can’t simply jump up one day and say “I’ll be a travel agent today”

Question: Should I work in the airline industry or as a travel agent?
Hey folks! I want to ask you if I should work in the airline industry or as a travel agent in such companies such as Triple AAA or Travelocity? Right now, I’m currently taking an air and travel class in San Francisco and after that, I have to do an internship for 9 weeks. After the internship is over, I begin to start a carrier. Now do you think that I should work in the airline industry such as Virgin America or Southwest Airliens or Jetblue or work in a travel agency such as Triple AAA or Travelocity. I have a degree in Communication Studies and they said that you can work in the airline industry in what positions. So let me know about it.

Yes, you should work in the airlines industry. If you are looking for a good company I would reccommend Travelocity because it it the best know out of the bunch (they sponser all the cruises given out on Amazing Race which is one of the most watched reality tv shows and each time they show the destination and that makes the watchers want to go to that place by way of Travelocity). If you have a communications degree that will definitely help you because you will be more versatile. You could probably work anywhere in the airline industry (except maybe pilot ) if you have those degrees you mentioned.
Hope you get the job you’re wanting!

Omega World Travel comes to mind. The airlines also hire travel agents to book their seats. You can also look on hotjobs or monster.com for a job in travel.
