Flying Carpet Travel CEO, Achma Asokan, spoke about the inextricable link between aviation and tourism at the recent ‘UN Tourism and ICAO Ministerial Conference on Tourism and Air Transport in Africa’ Conference held in Luanda, Angola. Recognizing Africa as an important region for Flying Carpet Travel, she presented the benefits of collaborating with its ‘Aladdin’s World’ program – designed as a destination marketing and fulfilment platform for tourism boards.
Our platform now displays the final fare upfront—inclusive of all taxes and fees—for every flight, hotel, and experience. This enhancement ensures clarity and eliminates hidden costs, making it easier for agents to book with confidence.
Flying Carpet Travel recently conducted new agent training and onboarding sessions across Canada, Paraguay, Chile, Ecuador, Oman, Qatar, and the UAE. These sessions — held both virtually and in-person — introduced travel partners to our platform, its features, and the sign-up process.
Through these interactive sessions, agents gained first-hand insights into how Flying Carpet Travel can support their businesses with unique destinations, extensive inventory, and transparent booking tools. We’re excited to welcome our newest partners on board and look forward to growing together in these markets.
