Yup travel agents online or offline are struggling with shitty commissions, but being an affiliate would still be a much wiser idea than trying to start your own travel site. You would have to create your own booking engine etc etc and have no hope of competing with Orbitz, Travelocity, Hotwire etc.
Just put some interesting and fairly unique travel related information on your site, optimize it and use your travel sponsor's lookie lou's, text links etc
