Getting in to the Hospitality Industry

May 31st, 2010

Hospitality business is probably one of the easiest industries to get in to due to the fact that people love travelling and it is easy money if you are living in a tourist destination spot. There are several jobs in hotels that you can also take advantage if you don’t have the capital to use.

Kudos to the Hotel and Restaurant Management students for selecting that particular major because as long as you keep your confidence level up, you will never be out of job and you might even get lucky. At this age where the economy seems to just keep on fluctuating in the lower parts of the scale, it is highly imperative that you go for the industry that will never fail to deliver.

This industry may offer a difficult working schedule since there are practically always open twenty four hours a day, seven days a week, but the rewards that this type of business can give you can be really big. The key to this is to make sure that you will never stop believing that you have what it takes to make it big. The problem with young people nowadays is they become highly dependent on things and they are having problems coping up with the world.

 

Plane Crash in India

May 20th, 2010

There have been a lot of issues that have been raised nowadays due to the airplane crash that just recently occurred with Air India. It was reported that 159 people were killed and only 8 people were able to survive this horrific event. It may not be that much, but this should certainly affect the hospitality industry like hotels and resorts with lesser people wanting to go travelling long distance, especially with the use of planes.

People should understand that this is a rare case and should not be taken as something that happens every day. You just don’t generalize things if a certain part did not work well. This is and will always be the safest way to travel and if you look at statistics, while plane crashes may be more horrifying because of the number of people passing away in one time, there are fewer cases of plane accidents than traffic car accidents in the whole world. This should not keep you from going to the destinations that you want to go to and have a great time using your vacation because one mistake of a pilot is not something that every single one of them will commit.

 

From Paris to Venice

May 13th, 2010

People would usually choose France or Italy to have their honeymoon due to the romantic nature of the environment and culture. Obviously, for people that want to go to France, they would try to find a Paris hotel to stay. Hotel Le Meurice should be a good choice for this as the place perfectly reflects Paris’ uninterrupted connection to the French art of living, Le Meurice is a delightful, peaceful place, where the refined splendors of 18th-century construction styles meet the latest in modern comfort and sophistication.

Just very recently, it was announced that Coco Palm of St. Lucia has been selected as one of the best hotels in the world for this year. The award giving body Expedia recognizes the greatness of a hotel through the quality of its service to the customer, the overall experience in the said hotels and outstanding values.

Hotels among Us

March 16th, 2010

Finding the 5 star hotels with real five star qualities seems to be becoming harder nowadays as most hotels right now would rather do hypes than really giving the five star quality of service to their customers. It was even reported that some hotels would claim that they are seven star hotels just because they want to hype the place up, but if you go there, it’s practically the same.

Of course, if you truly want to find a real five star hotel, you need to really check in to the city’s list and find them yourself because sometimes, there are travel web sites that wouldn’t really tell you the things that you have to know, just the surface of the things that are already visible.

It is a good thing, however, that majority of the cities all over the world already have their own official web sites and we, as travelers, can simply just log on to their official pages and see the beauty of the place at a glance. These web sites would usually tell you tips on how to get there and show you lists of hotels that you can go to, plus the tourist spots that you can visit.

February 14th, 2010

For couples, travelling would mean that they want to have the most romantic trip that’s why they are having it.

If you happen to be in Paris, the most romantic city offers some of the most romantic hotels in the world and you can simply enjoy your quixotic stay with your partner, without trying too hard.

The hotel is situated in the heart of Saint-Germain-des-Pres, which is a bustling district that is famed for its intellectual and artistic circles. The peaceful atmosphere and beautiful garden of flowers add up to the great atmosphere of this location. Another one in the same city would be the Pavillon de la Reine. If you are into Aristocratic credentials, this place is certainly perfect for you due to its deep history, rooting up to Henri IV. The place should be able to give you pleasures to browse in the antique shops, visit the art galleries or dine in a good restaurant

 

It Should Start with The Way You Travel

February 2nd, 2010

When it comes to travelling, the number one thing that we all try to find is the place to go and where to stay in that place. Travelers have to understand that it would always be easier to think about how to get there first, before worrying about the places to go to.

The best airline company should always be taken in to consideration first because literally, the very first thing that you will see before anything else is the airport.

American Airlines should always be on top of your list because they will always have the best services and have the best track record over the past years. You have to make sure that your travel towards the place will always be good because most of the time, if your flight does not give you a good experience, the whole vacation could get affected as well and it is definitely the last thing that you would want to occur since the reason why you went traveling is to have great time with yourself, your love ones and your friends. It would be a crying shame to be in a vacation that got ruined just because of your traveling experience. Better be sure than sorry.

 

Working Away from Home

January 6th, 2010

Travel jobs have got to be the most tiring, yet most rewarding types of job there is for various reasons. There are several job titles out there and all of them would really take most of your time, but they can also provide you with some benefits that you would really enjoy.

Take flight attendant for example, this job can be one of the most demanding jobs ever due to the things that a flight attendant does. You would always have to be charming, polite and friendly but you also have to be determined, brave and firm at the same time because of the various hassles of this job. You even have the possibility of not being able to survive a shift due to accidents, and we all know that an accident inside an airplane is always never good.

But with this job, you also get to meet a lot of people from different races and you can simply go travelling around the world without needing to buy plane tickets since you already work inside the planes. The same also applies to a cabin crew since you also get to travel a lot of places and learn a lot from the people that you get to meet or work with.
