How to apply for a ticket agent

1. According to the relevant regulations of the Civil Aviation Administration; the business scope of the passenger sales agency industry is divided into two categories:

The first type of passenger sales agency industry operates international routes or Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan Civil air transport sales agency business for regional routes. To operate a Class I agency business, the registered capital shall be no less than RMB 1.5 million.

The second-category passenger transport sales agency industry operates civil air transport sales agency business for domestic routes except routes to Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. To operate Category II agency business, the registered capital shall be no less than RMB 500,000. The main and concurrent business scope of its business license includes "air transport agency business". In layman's terms, it is a type of qualification that has the right to sell international air tickets. Category II agents have the right to sell domestic air tickets.

2. If you do not consider qualifications, you can also apply for an individual license or a small company with a registered capital of about 30,000 yuan; its business scope is; ticket agency, ticket sales agency, ticket purchase agency, etc. . According to Order No. 37 of the General Administration of Aviation: As a sales agent, you must obtain the legal person qualification of the People's Republic of China and the State in accordance with the law, which means that you must have the qualifications of an enterprise and the qualifications of an independent legal person. This is the minimum condition.

3. From the perspective of traditional air ticket agencies, they are currently in an awkward position. Since airlines have implemented zero commission, the online travel industry has squeezed the ticketing market, and competition among agents has become particularly fierce. So to be honest, the profit points of traditional ticket agents have been greatly compressed. If you want to get involved in this industry, it is better to consider using some new products to achieve this transformation. Air ticket agents alone can no longer face the competition in today's industry. You have to add train tickets, hotels, professional and even packaged travel products to sell them to be profitable. Picture, there is currently a new app called Business Travel Easy, which is very suitable for current agents.
