As a remote travel consultant, you work from home to help clients make trip reservations. This may include booking flights or hotel rooms for each customer, acting as their agent to negotiate offers, and taking care of any special needs they have. Many remote travel consultants specialize in a particular area, such as helping corporate clients who travel frequently. Remote travel consultants usually work for a single company, but it is possible to be a freelancer. Some aspects of this job vary depending on your client base. For example, helping people plan vacations entails slightly different duties than when helping a company schedule a tour of its overseas facilities.
