AirlinePros unveils new platform tapping demand for authentic travel
AirlinePros International has launched its Digital Destination Marketing Portal, FlyingCarpet.travel, at its four‑day International Assembly in Cape Town. Built to meet surging demand for authentic, community‑based travel, the platform’s Aladdin’s World connects National Tourism Organisations and Destination Management Organisations with travel advisors via integrated booking and real‑time transactions – helping smaller destinations and products reach global distribution.
Key features include the forthcoming Oasis supplier CMS and booking engine to give SMEs – from community‑owned lodges to local artisans – instant confirmation and multi‑tier pricing, alongside the Genie AI trip planner, one‑click booking and conversational tools. Curated content highlights experiences such as Zambia’s bat migration at Kasanka National Park and South Africa’s Abbot Pfanner Trappist Trail, while zero‑cost core services for participating NTOs and reach across 60+ countries aim to channel more revenue to local providers – aligning with industry moves toward sustainability and cultural depth.
