New challenges keep travel agents hopping to stay ahead of the game

Dora Moutafian of D & B Travel in Saratoga says that when a person gets involved early on in the travel industry--as she did--"it stays in your blood." Ed Stahl of Travel Advisors of Los Gatos has been similarly affected for four decades, while George Oberle of Saratoga's WesTrav International could hardly avoid it, as he was practically born into it. Although they share a common passion, each has followed a different path to become--and stay--a successful travel agency owner. Each also has his or her own ideas about where that path is taking them and how to dodge its various obstacles.   More
