I seem to encounter a problem. I want to open a site in the travel industry and i knew that in order to get traffic I should link myself to another site with a highe page ranking.
What's the best way: 1. I giving him my link
2.him giving me his link too.
And also how can I convince him that we are "noncompetitors" since we both work in the travel industry (online booking).
Thank you very much in advance!

It seems to me from what you say that you are competitors. A reciprocal link will be mutually beneficial for both sites, but more so for you if your site's PR is lower. I'd say your chances of getting a link in this case are slim.
Look for listings in directories and links from sites that provide complementary but not competing services.
What we're discussing here is reciprocal linking. Crosslinking is when you make excessive links between many of your own domains, something which search engines tend to penalise.
