Goway Goes Green for Speed

Posted by PressRelease in Goway, Product Updates | No Comments

GowayAgent.com has tweaked their website to “Go Green and Book It!”

Recently Goway updated their agent website GowayAgent.com to better reflect the needs of travel agents and the response has been great.

The newest feature to the air booking engine is first screen availability which allows you to see not only the price of the net fare but also whether it is available right away. On most consolidator booking engines you first have to check the fare and then go a step further to check the availability which can lead to a frustrating series of forward and back clicks on the website as one or more routings are unavailable. With the POWER of “THE GREEN DOT” GowayAgent.com gets the availability with the same incredible SPEED it takes to display the fare. The display will now show you the available fares for the date you have chosen and tag them with a “GREEN DOT” in place of the customary question mark that agents are used to seeing. Additionally if the lower fare is not available it will indicate upsell options that are tagged with a “Yellow Dot” to alert you of the next best available fare.

In partnership with Openfares and powered by Amadeus the GowayAgent.com air booking engine has ramped up the SPEED to be one of the FASTEST way to “BOOK IT!” for your clients.

Also GowayAgent.com has recently added the following new carriers to its’ product offerings:
• British Midland from both Canada and the USA to Europe and beyond as well as Intra European flights.
• United Airways from the USA to the South Pacific to complement their current UA contracts from Canada to the South Pacific and Beyond
• Aerolineas Argentinas from the USA to Argentina, Brazil and throughout South America
• Malev from Canada and the USA to Europe and beyond
• SN Brussels from Canada to Europe and beyond

Let Gowayagent.com put the POWER of the GREEN DOT in your hand. Sign-up free to GowayAgent.com and use the SPEED of the GREEN DOT to BOOK IT!
