How Much Do Travel Agents Make? Travel Agent Salary 2024

There's a whoooole lot to consider when looking at how much travel agents make. Beyond the more obvious factors (like working hours or having more experience), here are a few things that impact a travel agent's income.

  • Employee vs. Self-employed? The vast majority of leisure travel agents are now entrepreneurs (most of whom align with a host agency ). This is a change from the old-school days when most travel agents were storefront agency employees. Why does this matter? Because there are going to be a lot more factors that impact income for those who run their own business compared to employees who clock in and out of a 9 to 5.
  • Travel Agent Niche: A corporate advisor will typically earn a higher salary than leisure/vacation travel agents. However, within the leisure sector, niche makes a big difference. Adventure and luxury travel, for example, earned higher averages than family and Disney travel in some of HAR's more recent research reports .
  • Time Investment: Self employed travel advisors who set their own schedules work varied hours. Time investment also has a huge impact on earning potential.
  • Industry Experience: Experience level also plays a large role in travel advisor income, with travel advisors typically making more as they get a foothold in the industry.

The thing with travel advisors in the 21st century is that there is no "norm." There are always more exceptions than rules, which is one of the great joys of becoming a travel agent. Organizations outside the industry that report on travel agent salaries are ill-equipped to offer a nuanced picture. The Bureau of Labor and Statistics, for example, doesn't include self-employed travel advisors in their data, only employees.

Here's the thing though. Being self employed is, by far, the most popular pathway to becoming a travel agent.

Organizations reporting on travel agent salaries outside the travel industry aren’t aware of the nuances of our field.

So that’s why we’re here! :) As a company that focuses solely on travel advisors, we’ll break down some of those nuances so you can get a more accurate picture of travel agent salaries. We’re going to dig into some in-house data to break down travel agent salaries and earnings into digestible categories.

Here’s what you can expect:

  • ALL travel agents (employees and self-employed: hosted and independent)
  • Self-employed travel agents (includes hosted travel agents and independently accredited agents).
  • Travel agent employees (advisors who get 'ye old W2, employed by a travel agency)
  • Corporate travel advisor employees and corporate travel managers (employees who book corporate travel)

So take a seat. Pour a waterfall of melted butter on a mountain of popcorn and settle in!

How Much Do Travel Agents Make? All of 'Em.

Phocuswright's 2023 US Travel Agency Landscape offered a great overview of current travel advisor income. They offer a big picture look at how much all advisors earn based on experience.

Here's the key takeaways:

  • Overall, 39% of advisors earned less than $25,000 per year. However, 80% of advisors in the lowest income bracket had been selling travel for two years or less.
  • Experienced agents, typically earned $50,000+ annually and 25% of experienced travel agents earned $100,000+ annually.

In summary? Experience has a big impact on income! This is particularly true among travel advisors, where commissions are typically not paid until after a client travels or in the case of cruises, 30-60 days prior to departure.

But don't get discouraged if you're just starting out!

If you're becoming an independent/self-employed travel agent, it can take a hot minute to generate income. It takes time to develop a client base and build your brand. Not only that, but commissions from suppliers often don't land in your account until your client's trip is complete (which could be months out)!

Here's more details what income you can expect in the first few years when you start your own travel agency from home .

7DS Accelerator

What does the Bureau of Labor and Statistics Say About Travel Agent Salaries?

The Bureau of Labor and Statistics (BLS) offers a somewhat different vantage point. While Phocuswright's number reflect primarily home-based independent advisors, BLS data predominantly profiles travel advisor employees.

The BLS data has shown a 26% increase in travel advisor salaries over the past decade. The graph below illustrates how it's increased over time.

TA Employee Income Increase Over Time, BLS

The BLS’ latest numbers (2024) reported an average travel agent salary of $46,400 1 .

Here’s a few things to keep in mind about the BLS numbers:

  • BLS only profiles employees. The BLS site sums it up here: “Estimates do not include self-employed workers.” When calculating annual incomes. We survey full-time and part-time self-employed travel agents in addition to employees.
  • BLS only looks at full-time travel agents. Here's how they crunch their numbers, "Annual wages have been calculated by multiplying the hourly mean wage by a 'year-round, full-time' hours." 2

So we took a look at the BLS data, which you now know skews heavily towards employees and doesn’t reflect the true industry landscape where the majority of travel advisors are self-employed.

What does HAR's research say about how much ALL travel agents make?

The graph below offers a counterpoint to the BLS data. Host Agency Reviews' in-house survey profiled 95% of self-employed advisors and 5% of employees.

Here's a birds-eye view of average income when looking at self-employed AND employee income.

Average Income, All Travel Advisors

Our site helps travel agencies start and grow their travel agencies so our readers skew heavily toward entrepreneurs. There’s also another huge reason HAR’s survey data on travel agent salaries are different than what the BLS reports.

When homing in on experienced and full-time advisors, results from HAR’s 2023 survey clock in higher than the BLS number, with data indicating that full-time travel advisors earned a $56,632 a year on average.

Since it’s hard to get accurate numbers on how much a travel agent makes when we look at everyone—corporate/leisure, employee/self-employed—next up, we’ll take a detailed look at average travel agent salaries for:

  • self-employed advisors,
  • travel advisor employees,
  • travel managers,
  • and corporate travel advisors.

Gotta cover all our bases! 😀

How Much Do Travel Agents Make? Self-Employed Travel Agents

Self-employed travel advisors are those who run their own businesses (rather than work as an employee).

I’m going to throw some industry lingo at you now. Are you ready? The self-employed category contains two primary segments of advisors:

  • Hosted advisors (those who use another agency’s accreditation number, called a host agency ) and
  • Independently accredited travel advisors (those who have their own travel accreditation)

Here’s the big picture you need to know about self-employed advisors. Over time, the number of self-employed advisors has been growing exponentially, while the number of storefront travel agencies has decreased over time.

In particular, hosted advisors have become the leading path to bringing new talent to the travel agency distribution channel.

We write research reports on both the hosted and independently-accredited travel advisor segment. In our 2023 report, full-time hosted advisors with 3+ years of experience earned $60,146 on average and their independently-accredited counterparts earned $76,252.

Average Income, Self-Employed Travel Advisors

Why the income drop for hosted advisors? We know a big factor that influences how much a travel agent makes is their experience level. Hosted advisors are more likely to be newer to the industry. The median years of experience for hosted advisors was 5 years , compared to 18 years for independent travel agents.

Owner Deductions (and how it impacts how much self-employed travel agents make)

I want to bring up one last thing that complicates things when it comes to self-employed travel agent salaries. Because why not? You've already read this far! 😊

When we're talking about income for self-employed agents, income/salary numbers can be artificially deflated.

Why? Three things:

  • Business owners may not be reporting all of their income. Since cash transactions leave no paper trail for the IRS to follow, many small businesses won't report cash transactions and in not doing so, they lower the income/earnings they report to the government.
  • Business owners get write-offs. I can write off my office. I can write off my work trips. I can write off my work phone and meals with colleagues where I discuss business. When I do that, it lowers what I report for my taxable income (ahem, salary) to the IRS. Not only that, but travel agents will vary WILDLY in terms of how much of their income they write off. (Take a look at what travel expenses you can (and can't) write off .)
  • Salary and income are separate things for some business structures. Depending on the agency's business structure, the owner may pay themselves a salary (say $45k) but the income of the company may actually be much higher. All the IRS requires with these S Corp business structures is that the owner pays themselves a “reasonable” salary.

Learn about the different types of travel agency business structures here. So, keep those things in mind when you're looking at earning potential.

How Much Do Travel Agents Make? Travel Agent Employees Only

This section on employee travel agent salary is going to give you numbers that will be close to what you can expect if you get hired on at an agency. Travel agent employee salaries have less variance when compared to self-employed travel agents.

For the majority of travel advisor employees, income is not dependent on commissions alone. Here’s a look at the travel agent employee compensation structures.

Travel Advisor Employee compensation

The set salary of a travel agent employee offers stability not afforded to self-employed advisors. Additionally, employees also often receive benefits and are not subject to the added complexity and expense of paying business taxes.

When looking at travel advisor employees only, HAR’s salary data lands much closer to what the BLS reports. In HAR’s 2023 survey, full-time travel agent employees earned $50,115 .

Employee compensation models play a substantial role when it comes to how much a travel agent employee makes. The graph below takes a look at the average income of the three most common compensation models.

FT Travel Advisor Employee Income,  by Compensation Structure

Lesson on that? If you're looking for an employee position at a travel agency, find one that pays salary, plus commission! 😀

How Much Do Travel Agents Make? Corporate Employees & Travel Managers

Corporate travel advisors.

Corporate travel advisors (those who book travel for corporations) typically earn more than those who sell leisure travel. Below offers a look at corporate advisor income compared to leisure advisor income (among FT advisors).

Average Income, Corporate & Leisure

Do you have an interest in becoming a Corporate Travel Agent? You can sink your teeth into a few juicy tidbits of info here: 

  • HAR’s article, Breaking into corporate travel
  • Our podcast interview (below) with corporate agent Karen Hurlbut:

Travel Managers

Looking ahead on the corporate travel agent career trajectory, Travel Manager/Supervisory positions start with a much higher baseline. Business Travel News (BTN) report profiling Travel Managers/Supervisors' salary working for corporate entities as an in-house advisor (not working for a travel agency). The overall average for a corporate travel manager salary registered at $128,439.

Beyond Travel Agent Salaries, Why Advisors Love Their Jobs

We've looked at travel agent salaries from a whole bunch of different perspectives. You made it through the spinning, twirling madness of data acrobats. 

HAR’s research reports offer a ton of info on travel agent salaries. But ultimately, how much you make as a travel agent depends on a lot of factors, including:

  • what type of advisor you are (corporate, leisure, employee, self-employed, etc.),
  • what type of travel you sell,
  • your experience level,
  • hours worked,
  • and all that other fun stuff!

While naming one number for a travel agent salary is impossible, there is one thing that is consistent among all the surveys: the majority of travel advisors are happy with their career choice. 

HAR’s 2023 Hosted Travel Advisor Survey indicated that 95% of advisors would choose to become a travel advisor again if given the choice.

Corporate travel managers taking BTN’s survey were a bit more lukewarm in response to income satisfaction. 48% of travel managers reported their earnings were equitable, 12% felt “well compensated,” and 41% felt their salary was “low for responsibilities.”

Travel agent career satisfaction in 2022

And here’s the thing to remember about being in the travel industry. It goes beyond dollars.

Many advisors report that the primary benefit of working in travel is rooted in a personal passion for travel and the ability to share their love of travel with others.

Additionally, advisors often have access to great travel experiences they may not otherwise via familiarization trips or travel advisor rates for those who reach sales thresholds or meet requirements. 

In general, positions in travel offer a lower salary than other industries. But here’s the kicker, occupations in other industries don't include travel benefits and working in travel !

Interested in Becoming an Advisor? Here’s Where to Start

This leads us to the question of what type of travel advisor career you’d like to pursue.

Do you want to become a self-employed travel advisor so you can have the creativity to book the type of travel you love and the flexibility to be your own boss? Or do you want the structure of 9-5 with benefits and the income security of a travel advisor employee?

Employees at a travel agency may have a salary cap if their compensation model is strictly hourly/salary (about 42% of employees), but for those who own their own business, the sky's the limit. Plus, it's hard to put a price on visiting beautiful places, touring the newest properties, and the freedom and flexibility to work anywhere that goes with owning your own home-based travel agency.

How do you decide what type of travel you want to sell? Do you want to do leisure or corporate? If you do leisure, which types of travel agent niches are the most lucrative? If you go the corporate route, how do you break into booking business travel ?

Average salary in spain for the year 2022 is 32,520 eur per year..

December 12, 2021, 1:17 am

Average Salary in Spain

The recorded salary range in Spain for the year 2022 is 137,000 EUR to 10,000 EUR per year. While, the average salary in Spain is recorded as 32,520 EUR per year.

How Much Is The Minimum Salary in Spain?

Overall, the average earner has a salary of 2,710 EUR per month or 32,520 EUR per year. When compared to European countries like Germany and the UK, this figure falls short. However, it ranks much higher than most countries, including Italy, Portugal, Greece, Croatia, and Cyprus.  

It is essential to differentiate between an average salary, median income , and the minimum wage in Spain . Unlike average salaries, minimum wages apply to everyone. Minimum wage jobs do not consider factors such as education and experience.  

Instead, the government issues the annual minimum pay rate in Spain , accounting for differences in inflation and unemployment rates. In Spain, the minimum wage is 1,108 EUR per month. 

Similarly, the median income is the halfway point in the country’s cumulative salaries. Below the median income are the lower averages whereas above it is the higher averages. 

The average salary in Spain accounts for taxes, including payments to the public healthcare system and social security. Minimum wages do not consider these factors.

With an annual GDP of US$1.4 trillion, Spain is one of the richest countries in the world. The country has over 30 billionaires, falling into the top 20 percentile of the world’s billionaire population. As such, the average salary in Spain is higher than that of most European countries.

In fact, the World Bank states that Spain is the fifth richest country in Europe with a growth rate of 2.4%. The nominal GDP rounds up to 26,573 EUR. Although the GDP does not necessarily represent changes in the average pay rates, it is a reliable measure of all wages and salaries.   

How Does Salary Allocation Work in Spain?

The average salary allocation can vary, depending on an employer’s requirements. On the whole, most employers look at experience, education, and gender when assigning their average salary packages in Spain . 

However, these factors are prioritized differently, depending on the career field. For instance, surgeons, who make at least 64,500 EUR annually, require extensive years of education and experience. The job may have a higher pay-off, but it requires years of learning and practice.

Therefore, for surgeons and other medical field practitioners, the average salary compensation increases with levels of education and experience.  

Location can also determine salary compensation. In Spain , larger cities like Madrid and Barcelona have higher average salary rates. Since the living costs are higher in these cities, the average salary can go up to 3,130 EUR per month (37,560 EUR annually). 

Lastly, gender is also an essential factor in some fields, particularly STEM fields. In recent years, gender disparity in wages has gotten much better. In fact, Spain currently falls in the world’s top 10 countries for gender equalities. 

However, the gender wage gap still exists. On average, women earn 4% less salaries than men in Spain. Men typically make 2,770 EUR monthly. In contrast, women make 2,660 EUR per month.

Who Are the Top Earners in Spain?

As mentioned, there are multiple billionaires who have Spanish nationalities. There are around 30 people in the country who have different rankings in the global billionaire index. They are involved in various industries, including investments, banking, and real estate.

However, out of them all, these earners have the highest-paying jobs in Spain :

Amancio Ortega

Ortega is the fifth richest man in the world with a net worth of US$71.3 billion. He owns Inditex, a multinational fashion company. It is based in Arteixo, Galicia in Spain. The company’s most popular label is the clothing brand Zara. 

Apart from fashion, Ortega has various real estate holdings. When combined, his holdings are worth US$17.2 billion. 

Juan Roig runs the Spanish supermarket chain, Mercadona. He has a net worth of US$5.1 billion, and as such, he is the second richest man in Spain. Although he is the company’s president, he owns 78% shares, making his personal worth around US$4.3 billion. 

Miguel Fluxà Rosselló

Rosselló owns Iberostar Group, which is a multinational tourism corporation. The company’s main focus is its hotel and resort chain, which have multiple locations across Spain, other parts of Europe, and North America. Rosselló is worth around US$3.3 billion. 

Read More: Average Salary in Phillippines

In sum, the average salary in Spain is much higher due to the country’s flourishing economy. Although the average income in Spain is far less than the billionaires mentioned above, the country’s equity rates are quite high. 

On average, salary compensations, particularly in business, medical, and financial fields, are very realistic. They factor in multiple benefits such as paid medical leaves, state pension, and social welfare.
