International Airline Consolidators
International airline consolidators are essentially ticket brokers who enjoy
exclusive relationships with airline companies and through this exclusive relationship
they are able to broker exclusive deals with airlines which then enable them to
secure consolidator fares which are sometimes more than 70% lower than the airlines’
published. These airline consolidator contracts are usually awarded to those travel
management companies who have excellent sales records and offer airlines big volumes
of business.
Companies who invest heavily in their business travel seek to work with airline
ticket consolidators as they manage to procure heavily discounted tickets which
are not available even on the websites of airline companies. Some big travel
management agencies function as air consolidators themselves while smaller travel
agencies work with a network of reputable air tickets consolidators to provide the
best air travel deals to their clients. Often these travel management agencies add
a small mark up to fares provided by the airline consolidators but even with this
markup the price you pay for a consolidator ticket is much less than any discounted
fare that you find elsewhere.
Air ticket consolidators usually deal with international tickets for domestic
discounted tickets are far less common place and are usually found only in the form
of standby tickets for heavily trafficked direct routes between major regional hubs.
Online travel agencies often claim to offer fares that are similar to those provided
by airlines consolidators but more often than not, they are unable to match these
prices and moreover they often do not have the resources to deal with business travle
emergencies that arise out of flight delays and cancellations. Professional
travel management companies who are often air travel consolidators as well are better
equipped to respond and deal with these situations and that’s why most in-house
travel departments of companies prefer to deal directly with them rather than online
travel service providers for all their business travel needs.
