Read this story in our July 2017 printed issue.

Austrian Mustang operator GlobeAir has adopted Returnjet's online booking platform to generate enquiries and quotes using an programming interface developed by BoldIQ. The API is driven by web-based software technologies and interfaces with Returnjet's online platform to deliver instant net pricing to brokers, including aircraft performance and availability and an end-to-end booking process.

Within minutes of going live, GlobeAir announced that its first automated booking had been successfully received. Says its CEO Bernhard Fragner: “Previously, the private jet industry relied on human interaction at some stage of the quoting and booking process, whereas this functionality represents a significant step in technology, providing in real-time a flight enquiry and a confirmed price.

“We are very excited to work alongside Returnjet to provide cutting-edge technology in our industry, the future of which will be in the online booking arena.”
