Taero has officially unveiled its groundbreaking all-in-one multi-air channel booking tool, a “world-first” at Sydney’s 23rd btBT Business Travel Conference. Launched in the presence of Australia and New Zealand’s crème de la crème of procurement travel managers and representatives from the business travel supply chain, the anticipation was palpable.
Powered by Australia’s esteemed travel technology pioneer, Aeronology, Taero has rescued corporate entities, educational institutions, government bodies, and sectors like mining and off-shore. A one-stop platform that promises an end to the age-old hassles of waiting on calls to Travel Management Companies (TMC) for simple tasks.
By the Numbers:
- 4 major systems are covered: Amadeus, Sabre, TravelPort, and TravelSky.
- Direct connections to 7 major airlines, including Qantas, Emirates, and Lufthansa.
- Expansions in the coming months with giants like British Airways and American Airlines.
- Inclusion of low-cost carriers such as Jetstar and Scoot.
Taero has taken user empowerment to the next level. From changing and managing flight reschedules to handling special service requests such as meals and wheelchairs, the tool ensures every detail is catered to, 24/7. Moreover, it provides real-time updates on visa, health, and passport requirements tailored for every type of traveller.
On the momentous occasion, Russell Carstensen, Founder and CEO of Aeronology, remarked, “Our vision with Taero is not just to be another booking platform. We aim to redefine the experience, connecting every conceivable service a traveller might need under one digital roof. Whether a corporate executive or a university researcher, Taero ensures seamless, efficient, and real-time solutions for all.”
