I would like to work in the travel industry what do i do?

I want to work in the travel industry. i havent taken any courses in travel and tourism. What are some industries i can work and grow into? I have tried all the travel agencies websites on becoming a travel agent its junk and not worth it (there's isnt any money in that).( since majority of travel is booked through yahoo, travelocity, hotwire or another known form of agency).

I do have expereince in being being away from home for a long peried of time. (I'm not looking to go in the military)

I'm a very optomistic guy who enjoys being away from home. My residency is in Michigan. Any ideas anyone?

Thank YOU

You could get a job on a cruise ship - you'd travel, meet new people and be paid for it. You could work as a flight attendant for an international carrier. You could work as a tour guide or coordinator. I'm sure that there are many more but these are the ones I can think of right now.

You need to know alot about countries for starter, and have the Character to attract the clients and get interisted in what you can offer.

you have to be patient and pleasent and tolerete different minds and Personalities as people are picky especially the old ones.

you have to have maps and airline schedules and good organization skills.
