The new technology allows airline employees to research their flight travel benefits with other carriers online, a process previously only available by calling.  Alaska Airline employees that wish to travel on other carriers such as British Airways will now go through ID90.COM to request their industry tickets.

With an average of over 80,000* ticket requests a year from Northwest employees alone, 300 a day from airlines such as Sourthwest Airlines, it will expand ID90.COM�s loyal user base substantially, giving hoteliers a unique opportunity to sell their last-minute distressed inventory.  

�This easy system will identify fares, depending on the level of the ZED agreement Northwest has with various carriers to a destination, and which family members of that employee are eligible for a ZED ticket,� explains Patricia Ruth, Manager � Employee Travel Services for Northwest Airlines.

ID90.COM has been helping hoteliers target the airline employee market since 2000, for clients as Wyndham, Hyatt International and Starwood.  �For airline employees it now becomes a requirement to visit ID90.COM if they wish to take advantage of their flight benefits.  Airline employees benefit from the added convenience while ID90.COM�s hoteliers benefit from the added traffic,� explains Tristan Schukraft, Managing Director of ID90.COM.
