What:
Travel agents have access to new education courses from global airline network Star Alliance, which has partnered with Online Travel Training to offer new training programs for travel professionals. Courses will come in the form of digital interactive modules that expand on the network’s products and booking benefits.
Why It Matters:
Star Alliance’s portfolio of 28 global airlines — which service nearly 19,000 daily flights through 1,317 airports in 193 countries — represents a large chunk of available aviation options for travelers. Up-to-date education is key and will benefit both advisors and their flying clients. Additionally, this program sets itself apart with an added perk: free airline tickets and Amazon gift cards for select agents who complete the modules.
Fast Facts:
- To register for the prize-based competition, agents should register at www.onlinetraveltraining.com and complete all four modules of the online training course.
- Winners are chosen weekly, and prizes include 20 Amazon gift cards for $100 and complimentary air tickets on Avianca, Avianca Brasil, South African Airways and TAP Air Portugal.
- The competition runs until June 17, 2018.
- Twenty-four Star Alliance air carriers service the U.S.
What They Are Saying:
“We first ran a joint competition with Online Travel Training as part of our 20th Anniversary activities in 2017,” said Patrick Khoury, senior director of sales for Air Canada and chairman of the U.S. Country Steering Council of the Star Alliance member carriers. “The very positive feedback received from the travel agent community not only led us to continue to offer the online training, but to once again give those participating the chance to win a selection of prizes.”
