ATA Airlines expands its bulk ticket buying program

Advertiser Staff

ATA Airlines said it has expanded its FlightBank program for Hawai'i travelers, offering discounts of up to 50 percent on published roundtrip air fares.

The air carrier said passengers can now pre-purchase credits for flights through the program, eliminating the need to search for convenient flights with reasonable fares.

"ATA has applied the business model of bulk purchasing, usually restricted to wholesalers, to meet our customers' travel needs," said Josef Loew ATA senior vice president in a press statement.

More information is available at www.ataflightbank.com. A list of flight credits available at the Web site shows the least expensive pre-paid credit bundle priced at $3,000.
