Agents will soon be able to book five categories of flights at the desktop to maximise independent travel sales, following the launchÊof Comtec’s EasySell Flights system.

EasySell Flights is a new browser-based solution enabling agents to source and book UK originating flights from charter, scheduled, low-cost, consolidator and web-fare providers - providing retailers with access to millions of fare options.

Ê

The systemÊprovides agents with one-click access to fares from 17 low-cost carriers including EasyJet, Ryanair and bmibaby together with fares from over 200 scheduled and more than 30 charter airlines. The solution will also be interfaced with TravelCat, Comtec’s leading agency management system, operating on overÊ18,000 agency PCs nationwide.

Simon Powell, Comtec CEO said: “We’re experiencing a sea change in the way holidays are sold, with forces such as Expedia and lastminute.com moving in on the package holidays market.

Ê

“Agents must therefore specialise to succeed and we’re developing our solutions to meet the needs of the evolving market. The trade is already trawling the web to find individual flight options to create bespoke breaks for their customers. EasySell Flights automates this process, helping to secure independent holiday bookings and slash search times.”
