The European parliament has set out its plans for a new ticketing system for travel agents, which could cut air fares by up to 10 percent. The plan targets the travel agents booking system that it sees as being outdated and is looking to modernise it.
The proposed change would make the booking system more efficient and could reduce the price of air travel by up to 10 percent over the coming year. The new system is expected to be implemented from November this year and could lead to price cuts as early as December.
This new plan will be a bonus for air travellers, who have seen the price of air fares raise significantly over the past few years, due to the price of fuel increasing. The new system will also give the customers greater choice when booking their tickets.
