The typical travel agency managers and proprietors in the UK earns a median salary of £34,505 in 2025/26. These figures come from the ONS Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings (ASHE), so they reflect actual reported pay rather than self-reported estimates or job-advert ranges.
The mean (average) salary is lower, at £32,170, which is unusual: it points to a cluster of lower-paid roles dragging the average down, so the median better reflects typical pay.
