Aeronology, an Australia-based travel technology provider, has launched a corporate online booking tool (OBT) called Taero that promises to offer service flight bookings online 24/7. The tool, according to an announcement, will handle flight changes, bag checking, seat selection and special services requests such as meals and mobility needs. It also provides a full connection to visa, health and passport requirements for every known traveler type and document.
Taero’s connectivity includes Amadeus, Sabre, Travelport and TravelSky, China’s global reservation system. The tool has direct connect and full self-service to NDC airlines via its own proprietary technology. These airlines include Qantas, Singapore Airlines, Lufthansa Group, Swiss, Austrian and Emirates. Over the next few months, the NDC airline list will continue to grow with the addition of more carriers.
Russell Carstensen, CEO, said that Taero’s marketing focus will be directed to travel management companies and corporate booking tool users, adding that the tool can service all other OBT’s. Aeronology’s aim, he said, is to collaborate with all TMC/corporate air channel services “to simplify, reduce costs and increase productivity 24/7, no matter where in the world the business sits.”
