Amadeus Partners Plusgrade

Amadeus has partnered  with Plusgrade to help bring additional revenue to airlines.

Plusgrade provides technology to airlines so that passengers can bid to move to a better class or have that much-prized free seat next to them on a busy flight. After buying their ticket, passengers place their bids for these services online. They find out if their offer is accepted between 24-72 hours before the flight takes off.

The system can benefit both the passenger and airline. Passengers can benefit from being able to fly in a more comfortable environment and at a price they are comfortable with – depending on availability, while airlines can capitalise on empty seats and increased upgrades, generating significant revenue whilst also benefitting from the improved customer experience delivered to their customers.

"Plusgrade’s mission is to help airlines generate as much revenue as possible from every flight,” said Ken Harris, Plusgrade's Chief Executive Officer. “Our partnership with Amadeus further strengthens Plusgrade’s ability to innovate, lead and build upon the meaningful revenue streams and enhanced customer experiences for which our signature up-sell solutions are known. Together with Amadeus, we will deliver powerful end-to-end ancillary revenue solutions and experiences for our common customer base in a rapid timeframe.”
