Did you know you can expand your love for LEGO beyond just building blocks? Yes, you can help families and children visit both LEGOLAND Florida and LEGOLAND California. In fact, there are tons of people out there who might need your help, as LEGOLAND is still a relatively niche theme park. Many people don’t realize how big it is or that it has multiple hotels and restaurants. Now is your time to give them a hand… or a block… you know what I mean.

Being a LEGOLAND travel agent means dominating an industry that is still relatively unexplored. You need to research and understand the best rides at each theme park, know about the Peppa Pig Theme Park in Florida, and be aware that the water park is situated inside the main LEGOLAND theme park, and so on. LEGOLAND is catching families' attention with each passing year, and becoming a LEGOLAND travel agent now gives you an important head start on the competition.

C’mon, it’s LEGO!

Let’s be honest, there are more boring jobs out there that definitely don’t involve talking about LEGO. You can earn some nice $$$ while still discussing a fun hobby and helping guests get the best price on their accommodations and trips when visiting LEGOLAND in California and Florida. Hey, maybe you and your guests will become best friends and build LEGO together in the future.

LEGOLAND is Still a Niche Destination

A lot of people don’t know about LEGOLAND and focus more on Universal and Disney when visiting California and Florida. More and more, LEGOLAND is catching the attention of guests worldwide, but it’s hard to decide whether to stay in one of their hotels, which are some of the best restaurants and rides when visiting LEGOLAND, and what tips to follow for Peppa Pig Theme Park and the water park. Not many travel agents focus on LEGOLAND, and that’s where you come in.

The chance to dominate a market and expand to Universal and Disney

A lot of children aged 3-8 love LEGOLAND as much as they love something like Magic Kingdom. If families are looking for LEGOLAND, you can definitely help them out as a travel agent and take advantage of the fact that there aren’t many LEGOLAND travel agents out there.

You know what’s better? If you do a good job, guests will come back to you for LEGOLAND trips, and also for Universal and Disney! So, you should definitely expand your services and focus on Universal and Disney if you plan on becoming a LEGOLAND travel agent.

LEGOLAND Discounts

Being a travel agent can give you discounts when you visit LEGOLAND! Travel Agents can book a personal stay at the LEGOLAND Hotel with up to 15% savings on Standard Themed and Fully Themed rooms. Travel Agents can also receive either two Hopper admission tickets at 50% off or up to six Hopper admission tickets at 20% off when a valid IATA card or a business card and photo id are presented at any LEGOLAND ticket window.

Of course, being a travel agent for any cruise line requires a certain set of skills, and if you want to specialize in LEGOLAND, there are some specific ones you'll need. Let’s take a look.

Communication Skills

Sure, you need to communicate well when working as a travel agent for any company, but you’ll need to use a different tone and have knowledge of specific details when working as a LEGOLAND travel agent. For starters, you should know that you’ll be speaking to families with young children 99% of the time, and they’ll want to know about the best rooms for their kids, restaurant options, and how tickets work for both LEGOLAND and Peppa Pig Theme Park. You need to speak in a way that demonstrates your expertise and understanding of the needs of young children.

Stay Up to Date with Everything LEGOLAND-Related

LEGOLAND is awesome, but not a lot of people know about it… yet. As a LEGOLAND travel agent, it’s important to research what the theme parks have to offer, from the best rides to how to get to the water park and what Peppa Pig Theme Park is all about. You should also research ticket options, the best restaurants, hotels, special events, and more.

You need to research things like:

• The best rides in LEGOLAND
• Ride height requirements
• The LEGOLAND waterpark
• Ticket options for LEGOLAND
• The different hotels at LEGOLAND
• Peppa Pig theme park
• …and more!

Understand Universal and Disney as well

Let’s be honest, most guests won’t go to California and Florida just to visit LEGOLAND; they will definitely travel to Universal Studios and Disneyland or Disney World as well! That’s where you can also help them. You should specialize in Universal and Disney, and sell all three theme parks: LEGOLAND, Universal, and Disney. This way, you can easily solidify your name as a great travel agent, one that guests turn to when it’s time to plan the perfect family vacation.
