Travel agents have gained access to the new Worldspan Go! e-Pricing Shopping Tool to shop worldwide low fares in a dynamic new way. (3/2/2007)
According to Worldspan, the tool gives travel agents the power to access Worldspan’s suite of e-Pricing low-fare shopping solutions, all from a single launch point on the Worldspan Go! desktop.
The tools are part of series of intelligent desktop offerings, which simplify shopping and booking for agents who prefer to arrange travel in a graphical, web-like environment. The new Go! e-Pricing Shopping Tool offers one-stop access to all e-Pricing solutions and functionality -- without the need to know GDS formats.
The company shared that upon launching the tool, agents can invoke Worldspan Power Shopper to find lowest available fares prior to booking an itinerary, or Worldspan Flex Shopping Options to shop low-fare options based on flexible dates and destinations, including nearby airports. Agents can also tap Worldspan Power Pricing to quickly find lower fare alternatives for itineraries that have already been booked, or Worldspan Power Flight Search for flights available at a specified price.
“Worldspan agents can now conduct distinct types of low-fare searches all in one place using simple, time-saving entries that minimise manual comparison of fares, pricing and availability,” said Sue Powers, Worldspan CIO and senior vice president -- Worldwide Product Solutions.
“The results are a faster shop-to-book process, higher agent productivity and revenues, and a powerful answer to the demand for more low-fare options by today’s travelers,” said Powers.
The new shopping tool has been introduced to Worldspan travel agents worldwide through the `Worldspan e-Pricing Gives You the Power’ programme.
