The tourism Industry is expanding very fast in India. tourism degree programs, from associate's degrees to MBAs, offer plenty of options.

The course combine theory and skill development with an emphasis on practical work experience. In both tourism & marketing have greater scope.travel agents provide a dual service. First, they help pleasure and business travelers to make arrangements for transportation, accommodation, and excursions. Second, they help cruise lines, resorts, and specialty travel groups promote travel packages to millions of people every year. As a travel agent, you must be well-organized, accurate, and meticulous to plan and organize your client's travel itineraries. Other desirable qualifications include good writing, interpersonal, and sales skills. As Internet travel sites start to overtake traditional travel agencies, keen competition for jobs is expected. Industry perks also crowd the field; travel agents get reduced rates for personal transportation and accommodations. In addition, agents sometimes take "familiarization" trips, at no cost to themselves, to learn about various vacation sites. These benefits attract many people to this occupation. Career training in travel and tourism can put you at an advantage when competing for jobs or launching your own agency. Experience, sales ability, and the size and location of the agency determine the salary of a travel agent. Agencies focusing on corporate sales pay higher salaries and provide more extensive benefits, on average, than do those that focus on leisure sales. best wishes:-)
