Etihad Simplifies Travel with Smart Chatbot
The new system guides users through a series of questions. After that, it provides a list of required travel documents such as visas and tickets.
John Wright, Etihad's Chief Operations and Guest Officer, emphasized the importance of this feature. He stated that it is vital for travelers to feel confident that they have all the required documents for their trips.
As per Breaking Travel News, the chat feature uses up-to-date information from IATA's Timatic solution. Timatic is known for providing reliable, real-time data on travel document requirements globally. It is a trusted resource for the travel industry and government bodies around the world.
Frederic Leger, a senior vice president at IATA, praised Etihad Airways for this initiative. He said that it not only helps travelers prepare better but also supports the move towards automating the travel experience.
Leger expressed pride in IATA's role in supporting Etihad Airways through the Timatic AutoCheck system.
The launch of this chatbot by Etihad Airways aims to save passengers time. It eliminates the need to search the internet or call customer service centers to verify travel documentation requirements.
This development is part of Etihad Airways' ongoing efforts to enhance its customers' travel experiences by incorporating advanced technology solutions.
