Porter, FTS Partner On Agency Management Solution

Porter Airlines has partnered with Flex Travel Solutions Inc. (FTS) to create a more seamless commission payout and reporting process for its travel agency community partners.

Travel agency bookings for Porter Airlines and its vacation packages division, Porter Escapes, are now available through the FTS platform. Travel agents can expect a number of upgraded processes, including:

• Faster commission payouts
• Detailed reports, including export functions
• Simplified management of branches in a self-serve fashion
• Centralized promotions

Michael Curmi, Director, Agency Sales & Distribution, explained that: “This enhancement to our commission payment and reporting process gives our agency partners consistent and timely payments, with enhanced features to review real-time sales results and commission payments.”

Curmi added: “This is a timely upgrade as we get set to expand our route network across North America and begin working with new partners.”

Porter is extending its service to destinations across North America with up to 100 Embraer E195-E2 aircraft.

Service is scheduled to begin later in 2022.
