Travel Operator

Travel Operators manage or operate their own Australian travel business assisting clients with itinerary planning, tour reservations, and travel arrangements. They can work with domestic or international customers, but travel operators who work exclusively with overseas clients, are known as Inbound Travel Operators (ITOs).

As a travel operator you will be constantly on-the-go — juggling phone calls and emails from clients, airlines, tour guides, cruise companies, booking agents, and event managers. You could be showcasing a range of regional tourist attractions to an international client, negotiating a family package deal with an inland resort, preparing a group itinerary for an international tour group, or representing your business at a national tourism and travel conference.
