My experience at The Travel Academy was excellent. After 19 years, I decided to enter a whole new industry. I found The Travel Academy welcoming, supportive, fun, and informative. I learned so much about travel in general and the careers that are available. Being in the night class, I was surrounded by people who have worked for a while and we had the time to go through material as well as potential job opportunities and offers with each other. It was a great class, with a great instructor as well as a support network. I highly recommend it. - Carla W- Received December 2011.

I attended your school in the winter of 2009. I am currently a contract flight attendant. I get to go to fabulous places and fly famous people. I couldn't have made it here without The Travel Academy. I have flown celebrities from Lady GaGa to Bruce Springsteen, to going on tours with bands in South America for a month at a time to taking friends to go golfing for the weekend. I am only 21 and have been to places I will never get to go again. The Travel Academy helped me in so many ways! I can't thank them enough! ~Suzanne D -  Received November 2011

After I graduated from The Travel Academy, I am now working as a front desk representative at the Microtel in Inver Grove Heights for a year. I love being a customer service representative and to be able to apply what I have learned from The Travel Academy to my current position. ~Grace J - Received November 2011

I want to say thank you for the great experience that I had at The Travel Academy. My course was short and sweet and got me a job even while I was attending school. When guest speakers came in they always had great information to give the students. The instructors made the information interesting and easy to take in at a great pace. All the infromation given on interviewing was very valuable and helped me get hired at Compass Airlines and Sun Country Airlines for flight attendant positions. Thank you again for the great time I had at The Travel Academy and for the most exciting job opportunities I have had yet. ~Benjamin K, Minnesota -October 2011

I thought that the learning I received at The Travel Academy was highly informative and effective. The instructors at The Travel Academy made learning fun and the subject matter interesting.

My experience at The Travel Academy was fun and went by so fast! I learned alot and think its a great school to prepare you to find a job within the travel industry! ~Cierra M, North Dakota

My experience at The Travel Academy has prepared me so much. I didn't think I would learn so much in a such a short time. The teachers want you to succeed, which is nice because not all teachers are willing to help like they are here! Seeing how you are growing along with your classmates is amazing. We all come in the first day scared and not know what to expect. Now we are more dependant individuals. The Travel Academy didn't only prepare us to be flight attendant, customer service agents or travel agents, but how to be better employees and people. Some of us even have job offers and a lot of interviews because we attended The Travel Academy! Jessica S, Pennsylvania -October 2011

My experience at The Travel Academy was life changing and opened doors for me that I never knew could be mine! The Travel Academy was a great way to start my life. My experience was mind blowing and a extremely encouraging! ~Diana J, California -October 2011

I graduated from the travel academy in August of 2010 and since then I've worked for two different airlines and I've been living the dream of a flight attendant! I've loved every moment of it and owe so much to The Travel Academy for making it happen!  All of the hard work and practicing for interviews you do in class came in handy especially going in front of 300 people at an open house. It also gives you some more confidence and shows how much you are aware of the responsibilities that come with the job when you list The Travel Academy on your resume.  I love my job and could not imagine ever doing anything else.  Right after graduating high school I moved to Minnesota to start pursuing my dream and only a month after graduation did I get a phone call for an interview from the airline whom I wanted to work for!  Anyone with an interest of becoming a flight attendant or pursuing a career in the travel industry should know this is a great place to start! Not to mention a great location to be in to learn, explore, and meet new people that share the same dream as you do! Haylee T, Florida

They helped me put my cover letter and resume together, they prepared me for my interview, and I'm glad I made the choice of enrolling here. I was scared to move nineteen hours away from home, but now I don't regret anything I have done for the past eight weeks at The Travel Academy. The instructors have many years of experience in the travel industry. I can't thank them enough for what they have done for me. If you want a career in the travel industry then The Travel Academy is the right place for you.

Diem P. D'Iberville, MS 10/21/2010 *Currently a flight attendant for Colgan Airlines, a Continental Connection.

I had a friend who attended The Travel Academy in Bloomington, Minnesota. When I asked her about it she told me that she took a 6 week course and that she was guaranteed life time assistance in finding a job. To me it sounded too good to be true but after seeing her graduate and get hired as a flight attendant almost immediately I wanted to enroll to increase my chances of being hired as a flight attendant for an airline. I enrolled for an 8 week course in May 2010; the course was fun and exciting yet still challenging. I graduated at the end of June 2010 and within two weeks I put what i was taught at The Travel Academy to use, at my first interview. I was hired a week later by Colgan Air as a flight attendant and will soon begin my training. I'm so glad to have had the opportuinty to attend The Travel Academy. Sometimes when something is too good to be true, it is good and true!

Mary S. Hundson, WI- 5/22/2010

While attending The Travel Academy, I was given the tools to futher my career in travel. Hands-on experience allowed me to learn so much in such little time. I have worked many areas within travel, growing and learning where I can stand out. Moving from the Midwest to take on the West Coast during a hard economy, now working for the "google of all travel companies". It is a rewarding career in many ways and so many directions you can go. I think the best way to approach your career coming out of the academy is knowing the opportunities are endless. The Academy is your launching point and the rest is up to you!

Stephen M. 2007 graduate

...exceeded my expectations. I feel I have gained a lot of travel knowledge and industry skills. I greatly appreciated the help i recieved getting my resume put together and practicing my interviewing skills. I was able to land a new job even before the class was complete. I am looking forward to beginning my new career as a travel counselor for American Express Business Travel next week. Thank you for all of your help and encouragement!

Lori S. Cottage Grove, M.N.

...has given me an awesome start on the path to a long successful career in the travel industry! I had a job as a travel counselor before graduation and things couldn't have happened anymore perfect. I wouldn't have ever found this job without The Travel Academy.

Megan M. Gainsville, Florida

It was the best time I've had. I did better there than in the majority of my past classes. Plus I got a job before graduation. It helped a lot having the Travel Academy background.

Stefi W., McMillan, Michigan

...was extremely awesome. I've learned so much and it has given me the opportunity to build my confidence and shown me how to perform professionally.

Mai Z.V., Walnut Grove, Minnesota

...has truely been a life- changing one. It's hard to find the words to desribe just how much it has already benefited my life and how much I have learned, but here is my gratest effort. I was in my second year of college at the time I decided to pursue my dream of becoming a flight attendant. Things were just at a stand-still in my education and I was always interested and drawn to the airline business, especially since my Grampie was a pilot for over 30 years. While I was home on winter break, I decided to look at all my options and typed in "Flight Attendant Schools" on the internet. One of the first couple results was the Travel Academy. I looked over the site and studied the company, making absolute sure it was credible. The Better Business Bureau gave the Travel Academy an A grade, which I was greatly pleased with. I was also excited that it was close to home- right here in Minnesota. I called to enroll and got all set-up. I was ready to get started! My opportunities in life now seemed endless. Yes, traveling is a major attraction for many aspiring cabin crew members, but I was also excited to meet new people, help others, and learn more about other cultures in the process; to become a better version of myself! The Travel Academy helped me to become more of the person I want to be. The wonderful staff prepared me for the future that I wanted. The program at the Travel Academy is obviously extremely tailored to the travel industry , so not only did I learn about becoming a flight attendant(FA), I was also able to learn to learn how to use programs such as WorldSpan and learned about being a travel agent. Along with airport codes, geography, and interview skills, I learned of the great potential I possess. Now my dream can truly become a reality, and it's already started! In about the final week of the courses I started applying to airlines I was interested in. My favorite by far, was Compass Airlines, a regional airline wholly- owned by Delta. I loved the fact that Compass was more like a family business rather than a major corporation. After completing a phone interview and updating my passport, I was scheduled for for an open house for prospective Compass FA's. I attended the open house and found that Compass was even better than I could ever emagine. Upon completeing my face- to- face interview with a Compass representative, I was conditionally hired and am now starting my FA training Monday! Needless to say, I am extremely excited for this wonderful opportunity! I have come quite a distance in a short amount of time. My future now holds even more potential than before, and a huge thank you and recognition goes to the Travel Academy. I honestly don't know where I'd be right now if it weren't for them. The program is incredibly amazing and I learned so much. I followed the instructors advise, along with maintaining my determination and poise, and I am now on my way to starting my own legacy in the travel industry!  much Thanks and Blessings Always, and smiles too!
