Coral Springs, Fla. – May 2, 2019 – Brace yourself, summer is coming! School’s out and for educators that typically means an unpaid 10-week break from school. For teaching professionals who are looking for ways to earn extra income while off duty, summer is the perfect time to learn about starting a home-based travel agency. One of the most flexible side hustles for teachers is working part-time as a travel advisor with a low-cost, home-based franchise business, which for many can turn into their next career.

Cruise Planners is the perfect business opportunity for teachers to earn extra income while off duty  – teachers who are interested in being their own boss can receive a $500 marketing credit* for a limited time when they sign up to start a Cruise Planners franchise.
