Open Fares President Louis Mercier stated “Solars has provided seamless
integration to the Open Fares database of over 40 independent air
consolidators. McAbee Tours is the first of our clients to go live. Solars
will be activating distribution for our other clients over the next 1-2
months”.


The new era of zero agent commissions on scheduled airfares has dramatically
enhanced the value of Net Fares to the travel agent. This Solars/OpenFares
partnership will empower the travel agent with the ability to make
intelligent fare choices for their customers, quickly and without having to
jump from one medium to another to source product content.
