The revenue boost you’ve been waiting for
Extra services like seat upgrades and baggage fees have become big business for airlines. In fact, airlines around the world raked in a whopping $69 billion from ancillary revenues in 2022, according to a report by CarTrawler/IdeaWorksCompany. To stay competitive and capitalize on this growing market, it’s essential to leverage cutting-edge tech like Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML).
As passenger demand increases, so too do opportunities for additional revenue generation, and we expect to see ancillary revenue as a percentage of overall revenue continuing to increase over the next few years.
