Package I

The challenge:

Do the challenges of next generation Tour Operator businesses simply lie in the ability to continue to offer inflexible packages?

No -- most certainly not!

Today's customers demand flexible packages. So, together with a Tour Operator System from Bewotec, ISO or Travelink/Comtec this software package will handle all business transactions of a tour operator offering flights.

The solution:

For customers with an average of 75 to 150 tickets per day only!

• Fare management, online distribution of flight tariffs, data entry service and hosted ticketing service from our service partner Gateway.
• HitchHiker's Internet Booking Engine interfaced to Bewotec's, Comtec's or ISO's Tour Operator System.

Savings / Advantages:

With this already proven concept of team-work and tour operator solutions, HitchHiker enables you to provide flight tariffs coupled with your travel packages - dynamically, online. This allows your user to be flexible in booking additional flights, preferred airlines or with additional stops within their journey. Next to net, published and corporate tariffs low cost tariffs can be queried and booked as well.

In today's competitive online world you can't just offer inflexible packages. Customers expect high flexibility within their chosen travel packages.

If you have your own negotiated airfares and an average of 75 to 150 tickets per day, the data entry and ticketing service is definitely a solution for you. This solution frees you from the chore of having to manually prepare tickets, which in turn decreases the chance of making mistakes that consequently lead to a large number of unwanted and expensive ADM’s (Agent Debit Memos).

To speed up this process, we have developed an Airfares Data Entry Service, conjoined with our partner Gateway, and a Ticket Automator Service using visualFares Entry and Ticketing Automation. This service allows tour operators to create airfare tickets automatically in a matter of seconds, thereby saving time and money.
