Galileo India unveiled its e-ticketing services for Indian’s domestic sector. Galileo users can now issue e-tickets for domestic travel for flights departing from 11 cities (Chennai, New Delhi, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Nagpur, Pune, Goa and Bhuvaneshwar) to the six Indian metros (Chennai, New Delhi, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Kolkata and Mumbai).
Dr Vishwapati Trivedi, CMD, Indian, said: “Indian is pleased to have chosen Galileo as its major GDS partner for paperless ticketing. e-tickets in association with Galileo will be issued for flights departing from 11 cities to the six metros. This initiative will not only help us simplify the business but will also result in extra convenience to passengers.”
On the occasion Mr Bruce Hanna, COO, Galileo India, said: “e-ticketing initiative will help travel agents enhance efficiency and productivity, as it will cut down ticketing requirements and consequently printing of flight coupons. Travel agents can focus on their core competency—travel consultancy and research, rather than issuing and delivering tickets.”
“e-ticketing will also eradicate ticket fraud and revenue leakage through automation of check in and ticket change control and the purging of lost and stolen tickets”, Mr Hanna added.
