A personal travel assistant is a person whose main goal is to facilitate travel arrangements for companies or individuals. This job position can largely be compared to that of an administrative assistant, and the two titles are frequently interchangeable. In fact, most travel assistants begin as administrative assistants or as travel agents. People who have spent an extensive amount of time working within the travel industry may make excellent travel assistants. Likewise, anyone who understands the corporate world will be able to juggle intricate travel details.

There are several differences between the duties of a travel assistant and a travel agent. First and foremost, travel agents rarely if ever travel with their clients or assist them beyond scheduling and reservations for transportation and lodging.  

As your personal travel assistant, I will be involved in facilitating your travel needs, from booking flights, conferences, and hotel accommodations; unlike standard travel agents that rarely offer travel assistance beyond scheduling and reservations transportation and lodging.
