APG Airlines – GP 275

APG Airlines empowers travel agents to issue tickets for a much wider choice of airlines and flight combinations than is typically available through your GDS. With APG Airlines, you can ticket airlines not in your local BSP, or where you do not hold the necessary ticketing authority and even combine flights of different airlines when no interline agreement exists.

With APG Airlines A1-Z1™, you can easily access and issue tickets for airlines that have little or no GDS presence. APG Airlines publishes the airline’s flights and fares under our own A1 or Z1 codes, opening up more travel options for your customers and more revenue opportunities for you. By booking flights under our A1 or Z1 codes, you and your customers will enjoy the same advantages as any other APG Airlines ticket, including our flexible one free change policy, lost baggage protection through Blue Ribbon Bags, and the reassurance of our comprehensive Total Security Package. It’s a simple, reliable way to broaden your airline offering while giving your clients the confidence and support they expect.

Smart Ticketing for Agents

APG Airlines is purpose-built for travel agents, offering a reliable solution when direct ticketing on the operating airline’s stock isn’t possible. Use GP as the validating carrier in situations such as:

• The airline isn’t a member of your BSP or ARC
• You don’t have ticketing authority for the airline
• The airline doesn’t accept credit cards
• Your selected airlines lack an interline agreement

In all these cases, APG Airlines enables you to issue tickets directly through your GDS with ease and confidence.

HOW IT WORKS

How APG AIRLINES Works
