How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
I travelled extensively as a flight attendant before getting married and raising a family. When my daughter started school I completed a travel agent certification course and got a job in a local agency. After 8 years working for someone else I had the opportunity to purchase an established agency and expanded it over the last 24 years.
How do you differentiate yourself from other businesses in your category and area?
Back in 1994 there were about 7 agencies in the area. Once the airlines stopped paying agencies commissions just about all of them closed within 4 years. My agency survived and is the only full service agency in Cocoa Beach/Cape Canaveral.
How many locations do you have and do you have plans to expand?
One location and may expand in a year or so.
