What should a travel agent or travel consultant resume include?

A travel agent resume should show the type of travel you sell (leisure, corporate, groups, religious travel, holidays), the booking systems you use, your sales and service results, and your destination and fare knowledge. Agencies want consultants who can sell, ticket accurately and keep clients coming back.

Core sections:

• Header: name, "Travel Consultant" or "Travel Agent", contact details, city.
• Summary: years, travel type, systems and strengths.
• Skills: GDS (such as Amadeus, Sabre or Travelport), ticketing, reissues and refunds, itinerary planning, packages, customer service, languages.
• Experience with sales and service bullets.
• Education and travel qualifications.

Example summary (fictional): "Travel consultant with five years in leisure and corporate travel, issuing and reissuing tickets in Amadeus, building tailor-made holidays and consistently meeting monthly sales targets."
