10 pointsss!!!!

Answer 1

The travel industry as a whole is almost twice as large as the entire oil industry  putting at 7.1Trillion dollars annually and growing betwen 10% to 15%.  Number one reason it is growing so much is due to baby boomers beginning to retire - a world wide event - and the "boomers" like to travel..  

Overall the outlook for the industry is very positive for possibly the next twenty years.

I did my research before joining an Internet travel agency (having no personal agency experience before) and found out my personal travel is tax deductible and frequently I get better rates then the general public.

Don't mean to sound like a commercial but if you are interested in understanding more about this industry, I suggest watching the video at this web site: www.paycationexperts.com & a second short video at this site: www.AlmondTreeTravel.com.
