Net Tours and Travel acquires IATA accreditation

Net Tours and Travel offices in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Al Ain offer air-ticketing services and holiday packages.

"Having acquired IATA accreditation, the company plans to expand the travel business with a fresh zeal,"

said Mr. Anwar Abu Monassar, Assistant Group General Manager, Net Group.

"Being a front-line establishment in the regional tourism industry, we aim to provide professional service and bring optimum benefits to our customers." International organisations looking for reliable service would get the best possible assistance, he said.

"Accreditation from the International Air Transport Association (IATA) brings many advantages, both to the accredited travel agent and to the customers," said Ms Juliette Petro, office Manager, Holidays and Ticketing department, Net Tours and Travel Abu Dhabi.

Clients approaching an IATA accredited agent have the benefit of receiving quick service directly from the agent. "We can issue tickets on behalf of the member air line, without having to wait for their confirmation," Juliette explained. "Within minutes the client can
have his e-ticket issued if all requirements are met with." Further more, the IATA accredited agent is better equipped to handle booking requests through various airlines, and "can get the best possible deal for the end customer."

IATA agents feel encouraged to improve their ticketing sales turnover for various airlines, resulting in an income boost both for the agent and the carriers.
