Monarch offers agents online access to lowest fares
Agents are to gain access to Monarch’s cheapest fares and online discounts.
The airline has set up a dedicated travel agents’ website at www.flymonarch.com/agents to reach the best rates.
But at the same time, the airline is withdrawing the account facilities on bookings made through the website meaning all web bookings will now need to be fulfilled at the time of booking via debit/credit card transaction.
Commenting on the changes from Thursday (June 28), flyMonarch.com managing director Liz Savage said: “The travel trade is of great importance to Monarch and I believe these changes to the dedicated travel agents website will be very well received.
“Not only will agents using this website now enjoy the standard minimum online fare discount of £5 per one-way flight but it also means they will have full access to our regular online discounts and promotions, giving them greater opportunity to sell our scheduled flights to their customers and promote more competitive fares.”
The site allows agents to create a profile with Monarch meaning saved time when making a booking and allowing bookings to be tracked.
Personal details and e-mail preferences be easily managed and online functionality can be accessed such as check-in, changes to reservations and the Vantage Club loyalty scheme.
