4.0 out of 5 stars I got started in the travel industry from this book
This book got my foot in the door. I was able to start work in a travel agency right after reading it. "So, You Want to be a Travel Agent" did exactly that, I learned all the basics to get someone to hire me. Doug really knows his stuff...I went out and bought his International Edition right after I finished the Domestic Edition.

Thanks Doug...Keep it up!!!!!

1.0 out of 5 stars Awfully expensive for not much content
For the price I was expecting an expert level, in-depth analysis of the travel industry. Instead I received a book half filled with white space, codes that any professional can cut and paste next to their terminal and learn in a matter of days and photocopies of forms (like ticket stock), all designed for a reader with a 10th grade education.

No wonder people complain...

No wonder people complain about the quality of travel agents; ask your agent if he/she read this book, if so, find another agent.
