ID90 Travel Launches Confirmed Discount Ticketing Capabilities

DALLAS, March 15, 2016 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- ID90 Travel, the global leader in non-revenue travel solutions for airlines and their employees since 2006, announces the launch of their new Confirmed Discount Ticketing Capabilities. Now, airline employees can use an automated system to purchase confirmed airline tickets using their employee discounts, saving both the employees and the airlines time, while generating cost savings and additional revenue for the airlines.

The NEW ID90 Travel Confirmed Discount functionality, available on ID90 Travel's desktop, tablet and mobile app, delivers an easy-to-use inventory revenue stream to airlines via ID90 Travel's outstanding technology platform. This added service allows employee travel to generate revenue by offering paid seats with set discounts to employees, while eliminating the costly and cumbersome manual fulfillment process of these tickets that has plagued airlines for decades.

Previously, employees would need to call the staff travel or the airline reservation department to book a confirmed discount ticket—in some cases, during regular business hours only. If an employee found a fare on a weekend, they risked having the price of the ticket go up by the time they could purchase it during business hours. In addition, airlines had to manually process the tickets and update their internal systems to track employee use of these benefits.

"With our Confirmed Discount Ticketing Capabilities, airlines can save money and finally realize revenue in their employee travel by monetizing it with our platform. We've had a great response from both employees, who no longer have to wait for someone to process their tickets, and from staff travel and reservation departments, who no longer need to manually process these tickets" says Mike Stacy, CEO of ID90 Travel.

The Confirmed Discount program is fully integrated into ID90 Travel's normal Leisure Ticketing workflow, so users need no additional training when the program launches. This addition is also seamless through ID90 Travel's app that brings booking features directly to on-the-go airline employees and retirees AND their family and friends. While booking their air, users can also save up to 70% on hotels and car rentals, in over 38,000 destinations worldwide.

The Confirmed Discount Program offers many benefits, including:

• Self-service model allows airlines to realize significant cost-savings by focusing costly reservation agent time into supporting their revenue-generating customers

• Querying real-time confirmed tickets for the employee and all eligible traveler passengers

• ID90 Travel's system supports multiple discount levels, provides real-time auto pricing, and can be setup to accommodate eligible traveler allotments configured to the specific airline's Staff Travel Program

• This program is fully accessible through ID90 Travel's industry-first mobile application

ID90 Travel is the premiere travel site for more than two million airline employees and 20 million "family, friends, and retirees" who travel worldwide, on non-revenue ("non-rev") tickets issued by airlines.
