I spent 16 years working for a large airline. I was a quality auditor and a safety auditor/manager.
For those two jobs I traveled 5-10 days per month. I traveled to various cities where the airline operated, evaluated their operations and reported back to the airline leadership.
Did I make lots of money? No. Did I live comfortably? Yes. Did I have fun? Yes, I loved it.
I visited places like Honolulu, Palm Springs, San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, Miami, and San Juan (I really liked San Juan).
I also visited places like Marquette MI, Green Bay WI, Lansing MI, Pittsburg PA, and Chico, CA. Not as famous as some others, but very nice in their own way.
There are colleges that offer aviation related majors. A lot of airline employees start out with degrees from these colleges.
The airline business is very specialized, a good way to get a job like this is to get any job with an airline and work hard to learn how the operation works. Then interview for jobs that require travel when they become available.
This is just one way. I look forward to seeing what others might say.

Hey Zack!
There are some exciting travel jobs out there that you might love! One cool option is becoming an airline attendant, which lets you explore different destinations. Plus, I've also noticed that more and more people are starting to work on cruise ships these days too. How fun does that sound?

Hi Zack, I would say to search for remote opportunities when you're looking for jobs online. Many jobs these days you can do remotely and some jobs will actually cover your travel costs while you visit other cities! You usually can get downtime to explore and even start to build hotel and airline loyalty points for your own travel outside of work!
