Webjet Introduces Seat Price Guarantee
25th May 2005
Webjet today announced the introduction of an Australian market leading seat price guarantee.
Commenting, Webjet's Managing Director, David Clarke, said: Webjet's seat price guarantee takes our service and value offering to a new level. It effectively means what you see is what you get, with no if's and no but's. It provides price certainty.
With the current domestic air travel market in Australia subject to a constant series of airline sale initiatives and deeply discounted seats where availability can change literally in minutes, travellers are often faced with the reality of trying to compare all the differing airline offers only to find the discount seats disappearing and being effectively sold out in the time that process would normally take.
With Webjet all domestic airlines are displayed in real time on one screen, our customers can make an instant selection and lock in their price during the course of the booking leaving ample time for consideration of additional hotel arrangements, car arrangements etc. This unique seat price guarantee will attract a $1.00 per passenger sector fee.
In many ways the environment has changed from trying to beat a price to effectively get a price. This welds together the instant availability 24/7 of internet travel reservations with all airlines displayed simultaneously and the ability to buy with confidence and price certainty.
It is intended that the Seat Price Guarantee will be extended to our international flight range over the coming months.
