Features*

Gateway2Travel Flights can be enriched with several optional features.

A short description of some of the available features is provided here. (*available for Pro, Premium, Agent, API)

The Cockpit is a portal that allows you to configure your booking tool and manage your bookings.

You can set your commission levels here, refine your search query, enrich your results, and activate a variety of options to improve your conversion rate.

You can give your customer the option of easily comparing air fares on different dates.

The Calendar Search option will display fares from up to 3 days before and after the initially selected departure and return dates, providing your customer with a user-friendly matrix covering 7 days for both departure and return flights.

This tool allows you to set filters which will reduce the number of results but make them far more relevant for you and the booker.

You can choose to only show the cheapest fare per cabin class, to not show fares from all operating carriers of the same flight, and to not show fares that are X times more expensive than the cheapest fare.

Many airlines offer the option to reserve actual seat numbers on their flights.

This functionality can be incorporated into the booking flow, enabling your customers to enrich their booking with reserved seats.

The rates that appear in your booking engine largely depend on the results of the GDS shopping programs or other sources.

A number of airlines or fares might not appear in the results. In certain cases, you might also want to show additional results. With the Search Configurator you can configure your search query and enrich your air fare results.

You can allow your customer to combine and book two separate one-way fares from different low cost carriers. This creates a larger offer at better total rates.

An eNett Virtual Account Number (VAN) is an automatically generated MasterCard number that you can use to make supplier payments. A unique number is used for each new booking or payment transaction, which makes it a highly safe and secure way to pay, or to be paid.

This module lets the user calculate the CO2 emission of his flight. The tool will then propose a price supplement to compensate for this emission. These revenues are used for environmental projects, such as the development of windmill parks, or the planting of new trees.

This allows your customer to save his personal details. For each subsequent booking, he or she can simply log in and his or her details will be filled in automatically, facilitating the booking process.

This module can be used for marketing purposes, allowing you to give your customers a discount when making a reservation in your system. It’s possible to generate reduction codes that must be entered during the booking process, or to define a discount in your sales policy.
