Select Sky Bird

Sky Bird Travel is one of the most sought after travel consolidators worldwide for a number of reasons:

We offer a tremendous amount of benefits to our customers and clients. We provide services unlike any other US consolidators. Here are just some of the reasons why Sky Bird is the most preferred consolidator.

Commission Caps

No Commission Caps. No middle men. No extra charges.
You are free to add on the amount of money you wish to make onto our net airfares. At the same time you are able to offer your client a discount over and above the normal “published” airfares. Everybody truly wins.

Privacy is a priority

When dealing with us, you can be assured that your personal identity is guarded. Our tickets only say, “Travel Agency”, thus your identity is secure and protected. What’s more? When you are using a client’s charge card, the terms “Travel Agency” are displayed in the statement.

Cost Cutting reimbursement

Sky Bird is here to offer you exclusive rates and therefore keeping with our word, we will not charge an additional fee for credit card transactions unless the respective airline drawn is not accepting credit cards for our net fares.

We will only charge you when the airlines charge us, not across the board. Should you use a client’s credit card to charge a ticket, Sky Bird charges only the gross amount on the client’s card including your mark up for your commission. All your payments are subsequently mailed to you with your commission check the following week. It’s that simple! We offer our travel agent the following exclusive benefits:

Sky Bird System

You may bridge your system with our system, make your booking and transfer the PNR to us for dispensation and ticketing. This feature provides you to make most of our Quality Control System. Our QC is a software that inspects each PNR residing in our system.

You have all the reasons to smile as while adding quality assurance for your customers as Sky Bird will do all the work for you.

Sky Bird Plus

Our services don’t end here. With Sky Bird, you can take benefit of the latest and advanced technology by means of ConProbe. ConProbe enables travel agencies to advertise NET fares from their own website. Take a look at all the benefits that Sky Bird plus has to offer.

More about Con Probe

When the passenger enters your web site, they can proceed to check fares by entering the origin, destination, dates of travel, and making a one-way/roundtrip selection. This immediately registers them to the Sky Bird database. Now, the Sky Bird servers perform the price check, carry out the booking process and complete the transaction. With the passenger unaware of their presence on Sky Bird Servers, this needs no additional technology infrastructure for the travel agency.

Search results

The system searches in our database, adds your markup and responds with a list of fares sorted by the best price. Only the fares that qualify for all the fare rules are shown. We check for validity and blackout dates, minimum/maximum stay, etc. For example, if a fare does not meet minimum stay requirements, it is shown in red and indicates why the fare cannot be booked. Weekend surcharges, if applicable, are also shown to a passenger. Thus, we offer services showing all possible choices for a passenger and help him pick the special fare for his journey.

Fares. Secure payments.

Once the passenger sees a fare they like, they then check seat availability. On this, the user can choose from the various flight options available and enter passenger information. The passenger enters credit card and billing information on our secured site and a PNR is created and displayed on the screen. Since a majority of passengers are price shopping at first, prices are separated by quote from the seat availability. This allows the travel agent to offer services through your own web site to those passengers that like to “do it themselves”. They do all of the work and searching instead of you. You inturn take home more profits while dropping your efforts in giving the passenger what they want.

Instamange Fares

We offer unrestricted and unlimited access to fares through our website www.skybirdtravel.com. You can have access to the complete fare list by just going through a simple registration process.

You can register, have multiple passwords and change or update your profile at anytime.
After which, you will be able to view a listing of all of your past and current bookings through our “Instamanage” program. This program makes it easy to track their status, especially if you have had to make changes during the course of a record.

Group booking assistance

Call us for help with any group requests you may have. Many times, we are able to provide you with the advantage of our buying power with various carriers that will allow us to quote you some very competitive group fares.

As an agent, you may only do 3 or 4 groups a year, and maybe they are on 3 or 4 different carriers. You may be perceived by them as a once a year group booking, with little history of completion of your group bookings.

Sky Bird can help you here as we are booking numerous groups during the course of the year.
We bring the record strength of a proven booking history and a cordial relationship with group desks. We also have a working knowledge of each airlines group policies, which can differ with each airline.

Our written group agreements are trouble-free, uncomplicated and easy to understand. Sky Bird is free from deposit requirements, time limits, and cancellation penalty deadlines.
