Flight booking system
A flight booking system lets your customers search for flights on your website, see the price, pay and get the e-ticket by email. You follow the whole process from one panel, without manual work by an operator.

How the flight booking system works
When a customer searches, the system queries Amadeus, Sabre, Travelport and airline NDC channels at the same time. The answers are merged, duplicates are removed and the customer sees a clear list with your pricing rules applied.
After payment the PNR is created, the ticket is issued automatically and the e-ticket is sent to the customer. Every booking shows up at once in the panel, in the reports and in the accounting module.
Change and refund requests are handled in the same system: the penalty is calculated automatically by the airline’s rules, the customer sees the new ticket or refund amount, and the operator only presses confirm. Requests that arrive at night no longer wait until the morning.
How it looks on your website
The search form is adapted to your design. Customers never see the GDS terminal, only clear prices and times.
What the system does
Every operation from sale to refund stays in the system. Each step shows up in the reports.
Unified search
Results from several GDSs and airline NDC channels merge into one list, without duplicates, sorted by price and time.

Payment
Online card payment, balance and credit limit for agents.
Changes and refunds
Date changes, cancellations and refund requests are handled in the panel, penalties are calculated automatically.

Who it is for
This solution simplifies daily work for these companies.
Travel agencies
For agencies that want to move phone sales to the website and keep selling at night and at weekends.
Ticket offices and consolidators
For companies that sell to many sub-agents through one GDS contract, each with its own commission rules.
Corporate travel teams
For teams that manage employee flights with approval rules and a monthly report.
How we get started
You know what is ready at every stage; timeline and price are agreed in writing beforehand.
Choose suppliers
Together we choose the GDS, NDC or consolidator that fits your volume.
Connect
We connect the supplier’s test and live credentials to the system.
Set pricing rules
We set markups, commissions and payment methods.
Go live
After test bookings the system starts selling on your website and portal.
B2C, B2B or both
The core of the system is the same; the difference is who sells. We usually build both channels together.
| B2C website | B2B portal | |
|---|---|---|
| Who buys | End customer, traveller | Sub-agents, corporate clients |
| Payment | Online by bank card | Agent balance, credit limit, invoice |
| Price | Final price including your markup | Net price and the agent’s commission |
| Main benefit | Sales at night too, less load on operators | A growing agent network under control |
Frequently asked questions
Did not find your question? Message us on WhatsApp.
We have no GDS contract. Can you still build the system?
Yes. Together we choose the GDS or consolidator that fits your volume, and we help with the paperwork while you connect.
Can it be added to our current website?
Yes. The search form and results are added to your site as a module. If the site is outdated, we can build a new one.
What is NDC and why does it matter?
NDC is the standard airlines use to send their fares directly to sales channels. Some discounted fares and extra services are available only via NDC.
Who will manage the system?
Your team handles daily management: pricing rules, agents, reports. We take care of maintenance and updates.
In which currency are tickets sold?
You choose the sales currency: AZN, USD or EUR. The supplier’s price is converted by your rule and the customer sees the final price.
Does the flight booking system work on mobile devices?
Yes. Search, booking and payment work fully on a phone, with no app to install.
How are child and infant tickets priced?
If the fare has separate prices for age groups, the system applies them automatically. The total updates as soon as the customer selects passengers, and documents are prepared for each passenger.
