Undergraduate Career advice – 2 months in Istanbul for fun, or research at home?

By My Dream Vacations on Tuesday, April 20th, 2010 | 1 Comment

So I have 2 options for summer:

1.) Go to Istanbul and work at an international school. Free room and board, and 1700$ compensation. Eight weeks. Dad works at an airline and can get me tickets there for like 200$, so thats not really an issue. One of my best friends from home is also going. I can also work on campus before i depart and earn about 1750$, so my net gain would be about $3250.

Why do illegal aliens get a free ride home at US taxpayer expense?

Now Boarding: Illegal Immigrants On One-Way Tickets Home

(by Miriam Jordan, WSJ.com) KANSAS CITY, Mo. — While U.S. airlines downsize and scrimp on amenities, one carrier is offering its passengers leather seats, ample legroom and free food. But frequent fliers probably don’t want a ticket on what may be the fastest growing “airline” serving Central America.

This carrier is run by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement [ICE], the federal agency responsible for finding and deporting undocumented immigrants. A crackdown on illegal immigration has led to a spike in deportations and the creation of a de facto airline to send the deportees home.

i do have a home based travel agency business and one client did a chargeback of US$ 3160.00. How can I be?

By My Dream Vacations on Thursday, March 11th, 2010 | 1 Comment

protected by this kind of bad faith. The client travel round trip with the agreed airline/itinerary and dates and I do have her
copy of credit card and driver;s license along with a signed authorization form for the right amount charged, she purchased tickets for her and her family, even though she did a chargeback and we got a debt memo with no chancge to
reply back, she canceled her credit card, eveything was done after she came back from her trip. The bank was Chase and we got a debt memo letter with no chance to proof that she had purchase these tickets, they said was unautorized..
Since we are in NYC and she is in Atlanta we did not get an imprint with the original signature (what we call UCC form) and aparently that is the only thing that could protect us.
I need advise please, since now we will have to travel to Atlanta to start a law suit in the Small Claims over there and this itself will cost a lot of money, maybe half of the total.
How small biz can protect ourselves?

How do I start a Home Based Travel Agency??

By My Dream Vacations on Thursday, February 18th, 2010 | 2 Comments

Hi!!! I want to start a part-time home based travel agency and I’m not sure how to go about doing it. I have the opportunity to work with a growing family business that books 2000+ cruises per year. I think there would be good profit potential with this, but I am not entirely sure. For the most part I want to work exclusively with this business; I’m not interested in working for a physical agency at all. I would love to reap the personal travel benefits too! So I figure I need some schooling of some sort, but there SO many out there… I’m not sure where to start. I’m also not quite understanding if it is nessaccary and how it works working with a parent travel agency. For my purposes, I think it’s important that I have access to ALL travel services for my client, but it seems like alot of these companies are just referral sites for specific deals. Any experiences, tips, suggestions, or links would be greatly appreciated!!! Thanx :)
Thanx, but I’m really not interested in any kind of travel website referal program. That’s exactly what I am trying to weed through. I want to be an actual travel agent.

I have about 6 years airline/travel experience and would like to get back into the workforce part time from home to help with our income. I need to be flexible as I am a stay at home mom and my children come first. Any ideas of how to become a home based travel agent/coordinator from home? Not quite sure of how to get resources to begin this venture or how to get paid doing this. Any suggestions/advice.

Has anyone ever heard of the home based business YTB Travel and Cruises and does it make a profit or not.?

By My Dream Vacations on Wednesday, February 17th, 2010 | 7 Comments

I have always wanted to work from home, and it makes since to have a travel website, because almost everyone orders their flight and vaction deals on the computer. Has anyone heard of this is this a scam. The company is listed on the Better Business Bureau Website. I have researched it, and have not found anything bad about the company. The company works with priceline.com, hotels.com and so on.
