Alitalia to launch its group booking platform ‘Group Connect’ in India in Nov

Alitalia has recently launched its B2B community platform, called ‘Alitalia Connect’ in Italy to offer personalised relationship between Alitalia and its B2B customers like travel agencies, companies and SMEs.

Now, Alitalia is all set to launch ‘Group Connect’, a web platform under Alitalia Connect in India on November 13, aimed to manage and speed up quotations and group bookings.

“Other prominent features of ‘Group Connect’ include requesting an offer, booking a group and having the quotation and the contract in real time, monitoring the contract terms and conditions, changing the reservation (increasing or decreasing the group) and entering passengers’ names in the system. The platform offers increased flexibility, allowing the agent to customise the conditions to be chosen based on customer’s characteristics and period,” said Nicola Bonacchi, Vice President, Leisure Travel Sales, Alitalia.
