Umer Akbar
@umerakbar1
Experienced Travel Consultant specializing in tailored UK corporate itineraries, flights, hotels, visas, and GDS reservations.
What I'm looking for
I’m an experienced Travel Consultant with 6 years of expertise crafting tailored travel itineraries that match diverse client needs. I’m proficient in booking flights and accommodations, and I bring strong customer service, communication, and client-dealing skills to every trip plan.
In my most recent role, I provided extraordinary services to corporate clients in the UK market. We specialized in hotel booking, flights, and visa support—ensuring smooth coordination from inquiry to confirmations.
Earlier, I supported UK-bound clients with flight inquiries and learned how to structure sales and follow-up effectively. I’ve also worked on contract travel consulting where I developed hands-on knowledge of Sabre and Galileo GDS, including making reservations and handling cancellation policies, along with customizing tours and honeymoon packages.
Before fully focusing on travel, I built a strong technical foundation in IT equipment, intercom services, and troubleshooting in hotel and support environments. That background supports my computer proficiency and end-to-end approach to document handling, data management, and service quality for customer satisfaction.
