The New Face Of The Travel Industry
...For a few years now, we have grown quite accustomed to all of the commercials, ads, and billboards promoting Expedia, Orbitz, Travelocity and many more online travel portals that have become household names.
But, the travel industry is once again beginning a transition phase that is sure to once again change the face of the travel industry.
There are a few companies that have started over the past five to six years that have developed a program that allows people to start their own businesses as Work From Home travel Agents, or Referring travel Agents (RTA's).
A Referring travel Agent is someone who purchases an online travel store and spends most of their time marketing their travel portals to as many people as they can.

The number of all flights to the Arctic is predictably few in comparison to other domestic flights in Canada. Therefore, Arctic flights are always expensive no matter which travel day of the week. Staying for a Saturday night will not result in cheaper airfares either. The high cost of flights has always been the major obstacle for Arctic travel and will likely not change in the near future.
