On October 30th, Purcell will again take the stage at Airline Information’s Mega Conference and discuss with industry experts about the current and future state of ancillary products in a session titled “Are the classic big 3 ancillary revenue drivers being overtaken with the new big 3? Is there a conflict between in house and 3rd party ancillaries?”
According to the 2019 Cartrawler’s Yearbook of Ancillary Revenue, ancillary revenue can make between 25%-47% of major airline’s total revenue.
Executives from IFT Consulting, Guestlogix and Strataconnex will join Purcell to discuss the future of ancillary products in travel.
