The advisor desk
The business of selling travel.
Guides on what travel advisors earn and how the money actually moves — every number sourced, nothing padded.
How much do travel agents make?
The honest spread — BLS median, HAR survey data for hosted and independent advisors, and the commission math on a $10,000 booking.
How do travel agents get paid?
Supplier commissions, planning fees, net-rate markup — who pays whom, when the money actually lands, and what a host agency keeps.
