Amadeus Airline IT Amadeus Ticket Changer Suite Airlines

Amadeus Ticket Changer Suite has been developed to provide airlines with a comprehensive portfolio of automated solutions to efficiently manage ticket exchanges and refunds, whether voluntary or involuntary, across your sales channels. Prior to advances in automated ticket changing technology, airlines would use the services of highly experienced staff to perform the complex tariff calculations required to change and refund airline tickets. Not only did this expertise come at a high price, it ran the inevitable risk of human error and potential leakage of airline revenue.

A powerful tool combining accuracy and excellent customer service The Amadeus Ticket Changer (ATC) Suite combines the state-of-the-art Amadeus Fares & Pricing engine with a powerful, multi-channel ticketing functionality. ATC Suite includes a full range of products and features which offer ticket re-issue and refund solutions based on your airline’s ATPCO Category 31 and 33 rules. These include: ATC Reissue: to perform a ticket exchange, ATC Reissue will automatically calculate the price difference and any penalties in any currency based on the ATPCO Category 31 rules filed, enabling you to instantly issue a new ticket through any of your direct channels – offline and online. ATC Refund: ATC Refund uses the voluntary refund conditions coded in the ATPCO Category 33, to automatically compute the ticket refund calculation. ATC Shopper: automates online ticket exchanges using the advanced shopping capabilities of Amadeus FlexPricer combined with Amadeus Ticket Changer.
