In June, my children flew from Singapore to Texas to visit the family.
A few weeks later, we met with her husband in New York. Then I flew, solo, returned to Asia, later her husband. In the end, the children returned with a set of grandparents.
Our summer trip needed seven separate orders to remove-tanned a mixture of unilateral tickets and return trips among people in the same flight.
But the flexibility needed to avoid this booking test that needed half a day to perform, not only possible – it exists today, said Alex Maine, CEO of Travel Tech Tech Flyr.
His company seeks to convert airlines from the reservation operators into modern digital retailers that work more than Amazon and Spotify, he said “A boxed box as Asia‘Friday.
He said that the key feature of this change is familiar: the basket.
“We are used to buyers in virtually every retail experience, which we know – physical and digital – but the airline still monitored this very traditional linear flow when ordering and driving flights,” he said.
Purchases allow the leaflets to buy different flights at the same time, and passengers within the same reservation to select different seat classes, help and benefits such as priority landings, he said.
He referred to Travel CNBC Article about the amount Business travelers who often quietly accept their family and friends on working trips.
“You may be able to fly to the business cabin because your company is paid, but your family can fly in the premium -class economy,” he said. “You couldn’t do it today in the traditional booking system. You will need to do two customers.”
More than the orders
The next -generation reservation systems developed by Flyr as well as other industry players such as Amode. Saber And Travelport, helping to move the airlines outside the Legacy PSS or “passenger service systems” to “offer and manage orders”.
A promise is a more individual and flexible booking process when passengers can easily change and return purchases on their own, as well as the opportunity to buy more than just flights.
“We help airlines, so they sell hotels, car rental, activities, insurance, even electronic SIMS, such as when you go abroad, for example,” he said. “This allows the airlines to compete much more with tourist agents, especially with internet -tourist agents.”
This year is the main test of this new system with the launch Riyadh water. Mann, Maine said, will be launched without PPS technology based in Saudi Arabia through a partnership with Flyr, which will make it the first “digital native” airline.
“The Riyadh Air will become the first airline in the world, which has actually lost or even launches with this hereditary technology,” he said, a direct task with a long-standing industry that such technology is needed to support the distribution of travel agents and connect to other airlines.
Specific and orders management systems are a key part of pushing airline A new distribution opportunity To personalize the proposals for reservation and increase the income of the airline.
By next year, the expected report.
In this report, more than every fifth airline stated that the transition to the retailer is one of the three largest priorities in the airline technology.
