Travel Agency/Tour Company

[smilee]

hi!

just want to ask what travel agencies are on amadeus?  i saw kasi sa cebupacificair that their promos can be availed online or through travel agents on amadeus.

thanks.

@jellybeans--namamahalan ako sa presyo nya na 250k. based on experience, we spent less than 100k in establishing ours. pero tingnan mo din.

[kolinetongue]

first time ng agency namin na maranasan to. grabe pala kapag ganitong months madaming bookings/trips! @9pm nagbobook pa din ako. pero ayos lang.


perfect timing and place lang yung pagkakaestablish namin ng agency dito sa lugar namin. bukod sa walang kalaban, malayo pa sa manila at dun sa pinakamalapit na bayan na merong travel agency. God is really good.

kolinetongue, hi sis pa PM naman ako ng details regarding sa tie up mo.
Gusto ko din ng ganitong business para kahit pano related sa business ng parents ko na transportation.

Thank you. Btw, i have an existing PC and internet connection.
How do you accept credit card payments?

[jellybeans_verycherry]

hello sisters! I got the travel agency na. dito siya malapit sa clarkfield pampanga, so pugad ng mga foreigners. so far ok naman first 2 weeks.

sis koline, nanegotiate ko naman price ng travel agency,,,kasi kasama pa pala dun 6 pc nya, splitype aircon, desk, vault, 2 phonebooth na pang intl calls, yung system nila and more. kasi aside from travel agency may internet cafe and phonebooth din cya na nagoperate 24hours so ok na.

buti nalang kahit na turnover na ng owner yung business sa amin, tinuturuan pa rin ako and nirerefer sa dati nila mga clients.

sana tuluy tuloy ang success ng travel agencies natin!

[kolinetongue]

@betty, hindi pa kami tumatanggap ng CC for payments eh..plans pa lang namin. kaya wala akong maibibigay na details.

[kolinetongue]

@jellybeans- wow! congrats sis! maganda location mo madaming dayuhan dyan. try mo kumuha ng corporate clients para may regular na income. we have 2 corporate accounts na kaya tuloy tuloy ang transactions. plus yung mga walk ins pa.

Good Luck!

sis san yan and what time?

[mybabyrj]

i attended a seminar years ago at tlrc, try nyo doon mas cheaper. was able to register na dti permit. nagka problem ako sa business permit dahil ang makati hindi na tumatanggap ng new travel agencies.

want to pursue this pa rin. homebased lang naman ang gusto ko.

any advice. baka may gusto magpa-rent lang ng address house nyo

[tinmuning]

Ang mahal pala nung abacus seminar. 6,500 tapos may manual fee pa na 250.

[sweetubeng]

nag try din ako before na mag business ng online travel agency under GT trends kaso di naging success mahirap ang komptensya online kaya wala nangyari sayang nga e.

[kolinetongue]

^^ san ka nagtrain ng abacus? kamahal naman. ako 1900 lang plus 450 na manual fee. yung abacus training ko thru my IATA tie up.

[tinmuning]

^i just check online. sis, pano ba yang IATA member na ka-tie up mo? parang gusto ko ring maki tie up hehe

[KB]

interested ako dito since marami akong kakilala na kung saan-saan pumupunta. Lola ko nalang 3-4x a year umuuwi from US kami naman sa province lagi umuuwi. So paano ba ito sis? Anong mga problems usually ang ma kakaharap natin? Gusto ko to isa palang kasi ang may travel agency dito sa amin, noong nag pa book ako nakita ko na masyadong busy ang may ari minsan di na na sasagot ang phone calls. Na isip ko siguro maganda ang kita dito. 

[aipaguio]

@kolinetongue: sis, inggit naman ako sayo. i really wanted to have my own travel agency pero puro plano lang. di ko alam kung pano simulan e. tsaka hesitant din kasi ko kasi daming travel agency dito sa area namin.

[ms_simone]

hey mga sisses! I also want to put up my own travel agancy. baka you guys could help me find an iata member na ka tie up. bale i attended a tlrc seminar from way back. tapos since may fulltime job ako, naput on hold yung plans. Lately interested na ulit kami kasi may makukuha kami na mga accounts. sayang din yun di ba. eh wala naman kami ganun kalaki money to apply for membership sa iata. baka naman may makakatulong sa min. bale ngayon we are in the process of acquiring the licenses. i am based in mandaluyong pala. thanks in advance

[ms_kitkat]

Hi mga sisses,

pasali na ako sa thread na ito

yung dun sa friend ko, yung seminar ng abacus ay 6k. may alam ba kayong mas mura? pa-pm naman oh.

also, pano kyo nakakuha ng IATA partners/tie-ups??

[kolinetongue]

yung IATA na kase ang nagprovide ng abacus training for us kaya mura lang. but of course sa kanya din ako magpapatiket, wala naman quota. we have 3 IATA na. minsan kase i need to find the cheapest airfare kaya i need to canvass dun sa tatlo.

[jermah]

wow nakaka inspire naman ang thread na to  i'm currently working in a non-iata travel agency, and i can say na ok talaga ang travel agency business. Yun nga lang talaga, sa ngayon,  online booking is eating us up when it comes to ticketing, kaya dapat aside from ticketing, me iba pa tayong maioffer sa clients like visa processing, documentations, etc. We do personalized asian group tours too, and guide it at the same time especially if people are coming from diff places at di magkakakilala, ok rin naman ang kita and at the same time you can familiarize yourself as well in different places.

Sana i could put up my own travel agency din 

pm me lang for any other concern, baka makatulong ako..
