Given that innovation is a cornerstone of Athenian Yachts’ mission, it’s no surprise that they formed a strategic partnership with Booking Manager early on. The Booking Manager API has proven to be the ideal solution for Athenian Yachts, enabling them to manage reservations, availability, and bookings in real-time. By integrating Booking Manager’s API, Athenian Yachts streamlined their operations, automating repetitive tasks and freeing up valuable time and resources. Olympia from Athenian Yachts recalls the days before this integration, when the team relied on manual processes, endless emails, phone calls, and even fax machines. Despite investing in custom software solutions to manage and communicate real-time fleet availability, the limitations of these systems were incompatible with a company that prides itself on excellence.
Booking Manager has consistently proven to be the best fit for Athenian Yachts, offering efficient and automated solutions for managing yacht inventory and displaying real-time availability across multiple distribution channels. Athenian Yachts also benefits from Booking Manager’s extensive network of 5,000 agents, which presents their fleet on a global platform alongside detailed yacht and crew information, prices, real-time availability, and easy access to yachts at any base. This partnership has significantly extended Athenian Yachts’ reach and attracted new customers, further solidifying their position in the market. Most importantly, the implementation of Booking Manager has brought numerous benefits to Athenian Yachts, including enhanced booking management and improved customer experiences. By automating tasks such as updating availability, managing bookings, and generating reports, Booking Manager saves the Athenian Yachts team substantial time that would otherwise be spent on manual administrative work. This allows employees to focus on more strategic initiatives or handle a larger volume of bookings with the same resources.
Looking ahead, Athenian Yachts plans to remain flexible, continue innovating, and become even more customer-focused to ensure long-term success and growth in the luxury travel sector. There are many exciting ideas for achieving this growth, including expanding their fleet and services and pursuing potential geographic expansion over the next decade. With so much on the horizon, it will be fascinating to see where this remarkable team of professionals takes the Athenian Yachts brand in the coming years.
