Question 1

What is How to Travel Agent (HTTA)?

Accepted Answer

HTTA is a training and support community for new and aspiring travel agents. We provide courses, resources, and coaching to help you grow a profitable, sustainable travel business.

Question 2

Who is HTTA for?

Accepted Answer

HTTA is for both new and seasoned travel agents. If you're just starting out, we'll help you build the foundation you need to launch and grow your business with confidence. If you've been in the industry for a while, HTTA gives you updated strategies, fresh ideas, and a supportive community to keep you moving forward. Our members come from all kinds of backgrounds—teachers, parents, retirees, career changers, and long-time agents—who all share the same goal: running a successful travel business with clarity and support.

Question 3

Do I need experience to join?

Accepted Answer

Nope! We have people start with zero background in the industry. We teach you from the ground up and give you the tools to start booking travel confidently.

Question 4

Is HTTA a host agency?

Accepted Answer

No, HTTA is not a host agency. We are completely agency agnostic, meaning it doesn't matter what host you belong to (or if you're still figuring that out). We also don't help you pick a host, and we never try to recruit you into the personal host agencies that our team members are part of. HTTA has a strict no-poaching policy so you can focus on learning and growing your business without pressure.

Question 5

How long does the cohort program last?

Accepted Answer

The class is 12 weeks of lessons and weekly assignments, and they're yours to keep for good. There's no start date to wait for — you enroll, the lessons are already there, and you join the next Monday live.

Question 6

What if I can't attend live?

Accepted Answer

You're fine. Every lesson is already recorded, so you can work through the 12 weeks whenever it suits you, and the Monday lives are recorded too. Many agents balance this alongside jobs and family life.

Question 7

What happens on the Monday live?

Accepted Answer

It isn't a repeat of the week's lesson. Monday is about whatever's happening in the business right now — a new tool, a vendor shift, a question someone brought in. That's why it doesn't matter if you're two weeks behind in the lessons: you're moving with whoever's in the room.

Question 8

What's the difference between the cohort and the community?

Accepted Answer

The cohort is a structured 12-week training with step-by-step guidance. The community is our ongoing membership with resources, expert interviews, and peer support. Many agents join both for the full experience.

Question 9

How much does it cost?

Accepted Answer

Pricing depends on the program tier or membership you choose. You can view all options on our sign-up page.

Question 10

Can I join from outside the U.S.?

Accepted Answer

Yes! While HTTA is based in the United States, the majority of our training and discussions are not US-specific and will benefit agents anywhere. Some details—like certain suppliers, tax considerations, or industry references—may differ depending on where you live, but the core strategies, resources, and community support apply no matter where you're located.

Question 11

Do you offer refunds?

Accepted Answer

Because all of our programs include immediate access to digital resources, training, and community support, we don't offer refunds. Whether you join the cohort, a mini course, or the membership, you'll be able to dive in right away and start using what you've paid for. We encourage you to review the program details carefully before enrolling so you can choose the option that best fits your needs.
