How Many Steps Are There To Start A Single Aggregator For All Your Travel Services?

Myself, Sussanne. In Austria, I own and run a small family travel agency. With the continuing covid-19 epidemic, my marketing team has suggested that we leverage your services. We would shift our agency to an online platform; however, the problem here is that aggregators don’t often connect several channels like hotel booking and flights. Because the data is very detailed and costly, they often only specialize in and serve one type of data, i.e., flights OR hotels.

For instance, Expedia currently does not have an API for flight data, but they only offer an API available for hotel bookings.

For this type of solution, you would need to combine services from two or more aggregators in order to build a website similar to Expedia.

I have discovered a service that performs with the help of my research team. Your service (Travelopro), which has consolidated data from flights, hotels, and vacations into one single data feed, which we can utilize to build our website.

We are considering the following option: Commission: You receive a 3% commission on reservations. Payments are made straight to the aggregator (Travelopro), even if users book and pay on your website. Once the $100 limit is reached, then they start paying commissions.

Confirmation and reservations are made immediately.

Hi Sussanne,

 

Thank you for showing interest in our offerings. You're absolutely correct. The reason behind offering one service is that you need to be HUGE in order to provide both services. Even companies such as Expedia offer hotels and flights both to their customers, but they do not provide flights to their partners. Obtaining a flight solution is challenging since it involves a large amount of investment and a lot of hassle. To sell airline tickets, one has to be authorized and possess a thorough grasp of how flights function. As a result, in addition to investments, it comes with responsibilities as well. 

If the startup is recently established with Flights business or GDS, they may become confused and overspend on the same thing due to a lack of understanding about how Flights operates. Travelopro simplifies things for startups and travel agencies by keeping them away from all the hassles and minimizing their investment in achieving the same. In this way, we act as their back office and backbone, allowing them to focus on their core business, which is the sale of rooms and tickets.
