Earnings
Travel agency earn income from commissions paid by hotels, car rental companies, cruise lines, and tour operators. Due to the popularity of Internet travel sites, which enable customers to book their own flights, airlines no longer pay commissions to travel agents. This has been a big blow to those in this career, and it is a trend that will probably continue.
