Reservations… remind me of the umpteen number of places where you have made a reservation before thinking of going there. Travelling by airways is always preceded by bookings and reservations. A very important and crucial role is of an aircraft reservation agent and there are a number of qualities that the recruiters look for when they are selecting candidates for the said job profile. For example, good communication skills is a must and there is no other option for it, then comes an added advantage if you happen to know some vernacular language or foreign languages. So these are just the common things that matter a lot when applying for the position of an airline reservation agent.
Although your resume is equipped with giving your details an airline reservation agent cover letter enhances your resume by giving some additional personal information. You can freely express the positive sides of why you want to be in the employer's organization. You can mention certain things or factors that motivated you to apply in their company, why do you like the company, what do you like about the company, etc. It could be anything from liking the policies, the place where the organization stands in competition on the national or international standards, the way employees are treated there, etc.
The airline reservation agent cover letter should not be more than a page. So decide well on what you wish to pen down. With this we move to the letter writing section, the format you need to follow is given below.
