Got Wanderlust? These 4 Jobs in the Travel Industry Are Open Right Now

A few months ago, we wrote about an awesome, dream-job opportunity that included traveling the world, staying in expensive digs and making your friends jealous by posting about it on social media — all while earning $10,000 a month.

Sadly, ThirdHome, the company sponsoring this amazing gig, could only pick one person for the job, and that person has already been chosen.

Sorelle Amore is now ThirdHome’s lucky travel ambassador, Travel and Leisure reported. Her job includes hanging out in destinations including Scotland, London, the Dominican Republic, Costa Rica and more.

Feeling jealous yet?

Well, don’t just spend all your time scrolling through her Instagram account or ThirdHome’s. There may be a great travel job out there that’s perfect for you!

We’ll admit, it’ll probably be a little less grand than what ThirdHome is offering Amore, but check out these opportunities that will get you to new destinations — or at least will have you working in the world of travel.

And if traveling isn’t a must-have for you, but you’re looking for a new job, check out The Penny Hoarder Jobs page on Facebook for other fun and interesting open positions.

For Those Who Like to Fly

Get ready for the jet setter life. Spirit Airlines is hiring flight attendants out of Dallas, Las Vegas and Detroit.

They’re looking for people who have at least two years of customer service, hospitality or sales experience. You’ll also need to be a good communicator, be able to lift up to 50 lbs and must be at least five feet tall (yes, that’s a thing).

As a flight attendant, Spirit will expect you to have a valid passport and any necessary travel documents, and you’ll have to complete a four-week training course in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

The expected salary was not included in the job listings, but self-reported salaries on Glassdoor show Spirit flight attendants making an average of $22.36 an hour. The company also offers benefits like medical and dental insurance, 401(k) offerings and more.

If you want to learn a little more about what it takes to work in the sky, this United Airlines flight attendant spills all the details about her job experience in this post.

For Those Who Like to Cruise

Imagine grabbing a drink while in the middle of the ocean. Sound relaxing?

Well, this job will have you serving the drinks to a multitude of customers, but hopefully, there will be ample time for fun and relaxation during off hours.

Norwegian Cruise Line is looking for a wine steward to serve drinks to customers on board its ships.

You’ll be responsible for providing optimal beverage service to guests, so the ideal job candidate will have extensive knowledge of the different wines served and be able to make suggestions on how best to pair wine with meals.

To score this gig, you need to have at least two years of bartending experience on a cruise ship or large hotel bar, including some supervisory experience. You must have great customer service skills, be able to work seven days a week and be fine with living in close quarters with other crew mates.

The job listing did not include the salary offering, but self-reported salaries on Indeed show Norwegian Cruise Line bartenders averaging about $40,066 a year.

There’s also the cool perk of cruising to coastal locales.

For College Students Needing a Spring Internship

Ready for an internship that’ll get your career off the ground, literally?

Well, Southwest Airlines is looking for an inflight operations onboard experience and support intern for spring 2018. This internship is based at the airline’s headquarters in Dallas, Texas.

Southwest is looking for full-time students studying business who are at least in their junior year. You must have a 2.75 GPA or higher.

A college degree isn’t required, but you’ll need good communication, customer service and geography skills.
