Work for the airlines...lots of buddy passes and free flights for you and your immediate family. Might try Southwest or Jet Blue. They are the only two carriers that aren't laying off.
Buddy passes suck if you have to pay 10% of the full fare (USAir for one) and the airlines aren't hiring. Hotel Management pays well and if you get into conference sales, there is usually a lot of travel involved.
