A B2B travel technology platform enabling airlines and travel sellers to offer data-driven, flexible booking options, creating new ancillary revenue streams and enhancing customer choice on non-refundable fares.

Try it out

Flyte provides a specialized software platform for the travel industry, specifically targeting airlines and online travel agencies (OTAs). Its core function is to empower these businesses to offer their customers flexible booking options, such as the ability to cancel or change flights for a fee, even on typically non-refundable tickets. This is achieved through a proprietary data-driven engine that calculates the risk and price for these ancillary products in real-time. By integrating Flyte's API, travel providers can unlock significant new revenue streams from these flexibility products while simultaneously giving travelers more confidence and peace of mind during the booking process. The unique value proposition lies in transforming traditional refund and change policies from a potential cost center into a profitable, customer-centric feature.
