Ethics are essential in the Airline industry because they are the framework that guides individuals in the process of making business decisions. They usually encompass three features i.e. an application of one’s professional skills, incorporation of one’s personal values and lastly, good judgment. Codes of ethics are formal declarations of the moral values that guide various companies. Therefore, in the field of ethics, one can analyze an industry such as an Airline industry through its practical implementations and also through its formal declarations.

Almost all Airline companies have formal declarations of their codes of ethics. Usually, this can be categorized under a series of topics such as conflict of interest, asset protection and working together. Conflict of interest refers to those scenarios where employees or company representatives have to decide between their interests to their employer or their personal/investment/ relationship obligations. Usually, most Airline companies have highlighted some of the issues that can be labeled conflict of interests in their ethics code of conduct. (Frontier airlines, 2004)

For instance, conflict of interest comes about when Airline personnel receive gifts or rewards from suppliers/ consumers/ stakeholders for doing their job. Usually, most Airlines prohibit gifts especially when those gifts seem excessive. The reason behind this is that when a client gives an attendant an expensive piece of jewelry for receiving very good customer service, that attendant may be obliged to meet the consumer’s demands the next time the client reports even when those demands are not procedural.

In countries like US, UK and Dubai, there is a huge demand of Bollywood mainstream movies and it is simply growing all over the world.

My Name is Khan saw lovely performances from SRK and Kajol, the movie also had heart tetchy music.

Think about it for a minute.  Are there really Online Travel Business Opportunities?  Well, the answer is yes, absolutely.  The hardest question to answer for most people is who, what, where and why ? 

These are exactly the same questions we had here, and so we decided to search out the answers.  We looked at numerous online travel business opportunities.  Some were not opportunities at all, some were over exaggerated opportunities, and one stood out above the rest.  The criteria we used on reviewing online travel business opportunities were simple. We wanted a company with a proven track record, a real future, an easy to use system, extensive connections in the travel industry, a strong management team, and very importantly a company we could make money with and grow with.  As travelers we wanted to be able to book our own travel and earn a commission.  Basically we wanted to get paid to cruise and travel.  But we also wanted to be able to grow our online travel business and keep traveling.  We also wanted to present the opportunity to others as we traveled.  Sounds impossible, but it is not.  It is being done right now.

Ok , so who is the company.  The company that we feel is the best online travel business is YTB   Online Travel. 

What is YTB Online Travel?   YTB Online Travel Business brings you the perfect opportunity to transform your life through combining the fun of travel with the speed of the… Read the rest
