More choice & flexibility Amadeus All Fares is the graphical low-fare search and comparison solution fully integrated at the point of sale in Amadeus Selling Platform.

Agents benefit from a wider range of fares and search criteria that ensure they can offer the choice and flexibility that their customers demand, at the best price.

Agents can search and book low-fares from both Amadeus and non-Amadeus sources. Additionally, the Amadeus system can be instructed to ‘beat the price’ already booked in the customer’s PNR. Results are displayed in one single screen helping the agent to easily compare the different deals.

Several hundred flight recommendations can be returned with each search, and the 3-day calendar view (a feature unique to Amadeus) ensures even more choice for those travellers who have flexible dates.

Agents can even further enhance the customer service that they offer by making use of the powerful filter criteria within Amadeus All Fares – for example: searching within a defined ‘radius’ around a city/airport, selecting alternate airports and dates, defining preferred Amadeus/non-Amadeus airlines, fare types or currencies, including or not taxes/surcharges. All this for up to nine passengers and six city pairs in a single search.

Agencies with both online and off line sales channels can offer their customers the same search functionality and consistent content.

Faster sales processTime-consuming searches across multiple websites or applications are no longer needed. Agents can now make use of the intuitive single screen search to request content from different sources.

Amadeus All Fares also manages automatic log-in to business websites from where agents can instantly access the best negotiated fares.

Results are returned within seconds and via a single request, thus avoiding multiple costly searches. Amadeus and non-Amadeus content can be booked straight away and the PNR is automatically updated. All billing information is seamlessly transferred to the mid and back office.

Details are displayed in one easy-to-read screen, saving the agent precious time during the sales process.

Comparison between the different options is made easy with Amadeus All Fares. An agent can quickly propose the best deal for the customer and, when integrated into Amadeus Service Fee Manager*, ensure the most profitable fare for the agency.

*Amadeus Service Fee Manager can be used for the storage, calculation and collection of all agent fees

A truly powerful shopping solution Amadeus Master Pricer Expert is the shopping and comparison solution adapted to the following Amadeus booking channels: Selling Platform command page, Web Services and e-Travel Management.

Agents benefit from immediate access to a vast range of fares. A comprehensive and unique set of search criteria ensure they can offer the choice and tailoring that their customers demand, at the best price.

Agents can search and book fares from scratch or can ‘beat the price’ already booked in the customer’s PNR. Up to 20 price recommendations are sourced directly from the airlines ensuring agents can offer optimal accuracy to their customers.

Results are displayed in groups of the same price and the first price recommendation of each group is displayed, as well as the minimum and maximum prices in the full range, giving agents immediate visibility on the extent of the fares offer.

Agents can truly respond to a customer ‘s specific needs by making use of the impressive range of search criteria: Specify mandatory/recommended/major cabin, include/exclude certain airlines, set arrival/departure time, multi-city, ... to name but a few.

And all can be applied on up to nine passengers and six separate city pairs.

An expert sales processAmadeus Master Pricer Expert sources public, private and/or corporate fares directly from the airlines in seconds. The results can be booked immediately and the PNR is automatically updated. All billing information is seamlessly transferred to the mid and back office.

Details are displayed in one easy-to-read screen, saving the agent precious time during the sales process. Rules, fees and conditions of all fares are displayed instantly and flight availability is checked up-front.

The fare can be priced precisely, according to your customer’s needs. Any restrictions that need to be taken into account can easily be specified. Your customer wants advance purchase flexibility, needs a fare which is refundable, needs details on penalties? You want to withhold taxes and/or charges when quoting the fare, quote the fare in any currency your customer wishes, price only the Passenger Type Code? The list is endless and Amadeus Master Pricer Expert facilitates it all.

You can even set the maximum budget your customer is prepared to pay and Amadeus will find only those fares that come in below the limit.

An agent can quickly propose the best deal for the customer and, when integrated into Amadeus Service Fee Manager*, incorporate the service fee into the quote.
