Frequently Asked Questions:

1. What is the Independent Travel Agent Program?

This program has been formulated to allow creative individuals to venture into the travel business from their home or place of business without the high costs involved
in opening a storefront agency. As an independent agent, you are not an employee, but operate as an independent contractor in an effort to promote our services. For every cruise and tour package booked, you will receive 50%+ of the commission earned. Commission levels are negotiated on an individual basis, based on experience and production.

You handle all of the details and do all of the work. You research the client’s trip, determine the best supplier, price the package, book it, receive all payments, correspond with the client, and handle any other details.


2. Will it really be possible to do this from my home or place of business?

Yes, without a doubt. The program is ideally suited for home based operations and
with the advanced computer technology available today, opportunities are unlimited.


3. Will I be able to work part time and keep my full time job?

Of course! In fact, most people prefer to sell travel part time for several years without ever switching to full time. Remember that you are the boss. You set your own hours of operation.


4. How are commissions paid?

The commission percentage varies by company. Once your clients travel, the supplier will send us a commission check the following month for the total commission earned on the sale. We forward your allotted percentage as soon as the check arrives to us. We pay commissions twice per month. (the 15th and end of the month.)

You will be provided with monthly commission reports. At the end of the year, we’ll supply you with a 1099 for your income taxes.


5. Will I have additional perks and benefits?

Once you have earned $5000.00 in commission as required by IATAN, you will receive a travel agent card that will give you additional discounts on airline tickets, car rentals, tours, fam trips, and cruises. You will also be eligible for free travel.


6. Do I have to be bonded?

We are fully bonded. Independent Agents will be able to sell all types of travel under our bond. You might want to check local laws concerning home based businesses in your community. Some states may require a home occupancy permit, business license, or travel sales certificate.


7. Do I need Errors & Omissions Insurance?

All agents must carry $1 million dollars of E & O coverage. Errors and Omissions insurance is liability insurance for the travel industry. It will protect you and us in the event that a client files a lawsuit due to your error or negligence. E & O insurance can be purchased through Atlas for a annual fee of $135.00.


8. How will you handle credit card payments?

We have some very strict rules in place concerning credit card payments and they are there for our mutual protection. All of the necessary forms will be made available to you. We do not accept a clients payments without a signature!


9. Will marketing materials be available?

We will supply the marketing materials you need. Suppliers are always anxious to send brochures, shells, posters, and just about any sales material that will provide exposure for the supplier.


10. How will I find out about travel specials for my clients?

We have various up to date web sites that will assist you in researching your travel needs.


15. What do I need to get started and how much will it cost?

The total cost to start our program is "$0". You will however have to be
covered with E & O insurance which is $135 per year and $50 for business cards.

Additional required items include:

- A completed Independent agent contract.
- A dedicated business phone line.
