Automation Hub
Reduce Manual and Repetitive Agency Tasks
Every day, agencies perform numerous repetitive manual tasks such as PNR booking status checks, schedule changes, non-active air segment cancellations and HX status, just to name a few. Not only does this time-consuming work take up most of the day, it keeps agents from serving customers and can result in costly human errors. Very often, agencies receive ADMs (Agency Debit Memos) from airlines due to these errors, incurring avoidable expenses.
Moreover, automating these manual, routine tasks require complex software development expertise which can be unnecessarily costly to the agency.
Manage Routine Work Automatically
Automation Hub takes care of repetitive manual tasks such as booking management, scheduling change alerts, PNR documentation, cancellation, confirmation and much more – within one consolidated technology solution. Automating this work can deliver critical cost and time savings and lower operational costs while eliminating manual errors and consistently delivering quality service.
With its comprehensive user interface, Automation Hub is quick and easy to set up. As a cloud-based tool, it offers agencies a flexible technology solution designed to meet their individual business’ needs.
