Flyte Systems expands internationally to Latin America and China Flyte Systems extends global expansion with TravelMax USA as the first travel company in Latin America to implement Flyte Systems’ products. The FlyteBoard displays flight information via strategically located digital signage in TravelMax’s office. Customers and agents use FlyteBoard to quickly verify arrivals and departures at Lima’s Jorge Chavez International Airport for greater confidence in their travel plans. Flyte Systems is also finalizing system implementations in Beijing, China.
TravelMax USA President Roque Gargano saw FlyteBoard at a Marriott hotel and ordered one for his Lima offices. “FlyteBoard is a valuable service for us because it is very easy for TravelMax agents and clients to simply look up and check their flight status in a second to ensure they are on time,” Roque said. “Clients call us to check on their flights knowing we have the same information being displayed at the airport. This gives our agents an excellent selling opportunity.” TravelMax USA, with offices in South America, Canada, Spain, and the US, is one of the largest consolidators of international travel services. “We feel the addition of FlyteBoard to our other first class services will create even more loyalty from our clients and increase repeat business which is so crucial in an extremely competitive marketplace,” said Gargano. “Flyte Systems technology gives us a distinct advantage over our competitors because we are the only full service travel agency in Latin America with this innovative and cutting edge service.” Flyte Systems offers a suite of products that serve the traveling public: FlyteBoard, FlytePass, FlyteChannel, FlyteTouch, EventBoard, and now FlytePad with handheld mobile airline information.
