Why direct outreach works in travel & hospitality
Most travel & hospitality internships are never posted publicly. A concise, specific email to the right recruiting inbox reaches a real person and skips the applicant-tracking system — which is why it consistently gets more replies than job-board applications.

How do I get a travel & hospitality internship?
Email travel & hospitality companies directly instead of only applying online. Send a short, specific note to their recruiting inbox, connect one real thing you've done to what they do, and ask if they take interns. FirstInternships has 237 travel & hospitality companies you can reach this way.
Do travel & hospitality companies take interns with no experience?
