✈️ FLAIRE for Travel & Tourism

Inquiry to repeat trip on one platform. Traveler profiles, itinerary management across suppliers, commission reconciliation, disruption-day duty of care, and the trip-anniversary nurture that turns a great trip into the next booking.

Why travel businesses lose commissions and good travelers

Most agencies and operators run a GDS, a back-office accounting tool, an itinerary builder, a host-agency portal, an email tool, and spreadsheets in between. Commissions arrive late or wrong; traveler preferences live in the advisor's head; and when a flight cancels at 11 p.m., nobody's ready.

Supplier commissions arrive late, wrong, or never

Cruise line pays 90 days after sailing; hotel commission paid only after the stay; tour operator pays on a quarterly cycle. Without a commission ledger that knows what's due from whom and when, 8–12% of earnings get written off as "lost to the host."

A single change cascades across five suppliers

Client moves the trip two weeks. Hotel, transfer, two excursions, and the air ticket all need to change. Without one itinerary view that owns the dependencies, one supplier gets missed and the traveler finds out at the airport.

Duty of care fails on disruption days

Flight cancellation at midnight in Paris. The on-call advisor scrambles through email threads, supplier portals, and traveler messages with no central view. By the time the rebooking is sorted, the traveler is exhausted and the review is going to sting.

Repeat clients lost to forgotten preferences

"They like the aisle seat on long-haul, hate fish, want a king-bed view-room, and travel with their adult daughter half the time." If that detail lives in the advisor's head, the agency loses the client when the advisor moves on.

Built for how travel businesses actually operate

Three persona-based plays. Pick the one that matches your shop — or run multiple under one tenant if you balance leisure FITs with corporate accounts and the occasional group departure.

🏔️
Persona 1

Leisure Travel Agency / Advisor (host-agency or independent)

FITs (Free Independent Travelers), small groups, and the occasional luxury bespoke trip. The wins come from a content site that earns warm inquiries, a traveler-profile record that survives staffing, and a commission ledger that catches what the host or supplier under-reports.

Vega — destination content + inquiry form

Destination and itinerary content (Italy honeymoons, African safari, river cruises), expert-advisor bios, sample itineraries, and a planning-call booking flow with qualification (dates, budget range, travel style).

Nova — traveler profile & preferences

Every traveler with frequent-flyer numbers, hotel loyalty IDs, passport details, dietary restrictions, mobility needs, anniversary dates, and travel-style notes. Aria flags travelers due for the next destination based on cadence and life events.

Echo — itinerary portal + traveler comms

Itinerary delivered through a branded portal with maps, restaurant suggestions, packing list, and weather. Travelers message from any channel; advisor sees the full thread tied to the trip record.

Atlas — commissions, deposits & trust

Per-supplier commission ledger (cruise, hotel, tour operator, insurance) with expected vs received reconciliation. Client deposits handled per Seller-of-Travel rules in CA/FL/HI/IA/WA; trust funds segregated where required.

Pulsar — supplier sync, doc-due & anniversary

Supplier connectors (Sabre, Amadeus, Travelport, host-agency portals), final-payment and document-due cadences, passport-expiry alerts (within 6 months of trip), trip-anniversary nurture for the next booking.

💼
Persona 2

Corporate Travel Management (TMC)

Travel program for corporate accounts: policy-aware online booking tool, agent-touch for complex itineraries, expense integration, traveler safety. The play is account profitability (transaction-fee vs management-fee economics), policy compliance, and duty-of-care visibility for the corporate client.

Nova — account & traveler profile management

Corporate accounts with travel policy, preferred suppliers, negotiated fares, and traveler profiles per company. Aria flags out-of-policy bookings, traveler-safety risks, and underutilized negotiated rates.

Echo — agent desk + 24/7 disruption support

Agent desk with corporate-account context (policy, profile, in-trip status), 24/7 disruption queue with traveler-safety surfacing, OBT escalation routing for complex itineraries.

Atlas — transaction fees, MSF & reporting

Transaction-fee or management-service-fee billing per corporate program, ARC/BSP settlement reconciliation, savings-realized reporting per account, account P&L for the program manager's quarterly review.

Vega — account portals & policy microsite

Branded account microsite with policy summary, preferred suppliers, expense-tool links, traveler-safety resources, and the OBT login. Marketing pages for new-business pitches with case studies and certifications.

Pulsar — OBT integration & risk feeds

Two-way sync with OBTs (Concur, Egencia, Navan), expense-tool data exchange, real-time risk feeds (International SOS, geopolitical alerts, weather disruptions) flagged against in-trip travelers automatically.

🌍
Persona 3

Tour Operator / Destination Management (DMC)

Packaged itineraries (escorted tours, FIT packages, group departures), receptive operations, ground services. The play is supplier contracting at the right margin, departure-management discipline, and a B2B sales motion that wins recurring agency bookings.

Nova — agency & consumer pipeline

Travel-agency accounts with sales history, FAM-trip invitations, top-producer rankings; direct consumer pipeline for tours sold B2C. Departure-fill targets visible per departure date.

Atlas — supplier contracts & margin

Supplier contracts with allotments, blackouts, FIT/group rates, payment terms. Per-departure margin (gross sales minus supplier cost minus operations cost) visible before the bus rolls.

Echo — ops desk + tour-director workspace

Ops desk for pre-departure prep, tour director and ground-ops workspace with passenger manifests, rooming lists, dietary and accessibility needs, in-tour incident logging, post-tour debrief capture.

Vega — B2C and B2B booking

Tour catalog pages with itineraries, dates, pricing, photo galleries; B2B agent portal with commission structure, marketing materials, training content; co-branded landing pages per major agency partner.

Pulsar — rooming, manifest & final-doc automation

Rooming-list assembly from passenger preferences, manifest delivery to suppliers at the right cadence (T-60/30/14/7 days), final-doc delivery to travelers and agencies, post-tour NPS and review capture.

One trip, inquiry to repeat booking

A single trip from first planning call through return home and the next booking — running across all five products with one traveler profile, one itinerary, and one commission ledger.

Step 1 · Vega
Inquiry comes in from destination content

Destination or itinerary page ranks for the traveler's intent. Inquiry form captures dates, budget, travel style, party size; lands as a qualified lead.

Step 2 · Nova
Traveler profile built, supplier match begins

Returning traveler? Past preferences surface automatically. New traveler? Profile created with passport, frequent-flyer, hotel-loyalty, and dietary captured during the planning call.

Step 3 · Atlas
Itinerary built across suppliers, deposit captured

Multi-supplier itinerary built (air, hotel, ground, tours, insurance). Deposit captured to the right account; expected commission posted per supplier with payment-cadence flags.

Step 4 · Echo
Documents delivered, traveler informed

Pre-departure docs delivered through the Echo portal: itinerary, vouchers, visa requirements, passport-validity check, restaurant suggestions, weather forecast. Traveler messages route to the right advisor.

Step 5 · Pulsar
Disruption-aware during the trip

Flight cancellation or weather event detected; in-trip traveler flagged automatically. On-call advisor sees the whole itinerary, the suppliers, and the rebooking options — not fifty emails — before the traveler calls.

Step 6 · Closed + Repeat
Commission collected, anniversary nurture

Supplier commissions tracked and chased on the right cadence; under-payments contested. Trip-anniversary touch fires 11 months out with destination suggestions that match the traveler's preferences. The next booking comes through warm.
