New Brunswick, Canada. November 2, 2005 - InteliSys announced today the launch of its passenger self-service kiosk interface for airlines. The interface can operate on either purpose-built kiosk hardware, or standard PC's thanks to proprietary security technology. Marketed under the trade name "amelia ANYWHERE", this product is positioned as a companion module to the successful amelia RES passenger management system from InteliSys.
Amelia ANYWHERE was designed specifically for markets where internet access and credit card use is a barrier for some passengers. Amelia ANYWHERE easily addresses these challenges by providing passengers with the ability to view schedules, fares and book through a self-service environment, but pay for the travel with cash or Bank ATM card. The kiosks can be located in public places, or in the airline's travel shop or travel agent premises.
The benefits include:
Accessibility by a larger market
Lower call centre burden
Quicker fares collection
Enhanced passenger experience
Assist market in accepting web use
Commenting on the new product, Ralph Eisenschmid, InteliSys' CEO said, "The main objective of any airline is to increase the number of opportunities a passenger has to buy their product, and then make that experience as easy and pleasant as possible. Forcing passengers to fit into the internet and credit card mould just doesn't work in emerging Low Fare markets.
Countless industries have reaped the benefits of complementing their existing customer-facing model with a self-serve alternative."
InteliSys' existing airline clients will be the first to benefit from amelia ANYWHERE. However, due to amelia ANYWHERE flexible implementation model, the system can be integrated with airlines using other systems as well.
InteliSys markets its products worldwide through a direct sales force and licensed resellers. InteliSys has agreements with resellers to market its products in Europe, Africa, India, the Middle East and Asia.
InteliSys focuses on the rapidly growing low fare carrier and corporate travel sectors. The amelia suite is delivered over the internet from InteliSys secure data centre.
