50 million insolvency-safe Hahnair tickets issued since 2010

DREIEICH – Hahnair has sold 50 million insolvency-safe tickets for its more than 350 partner airlines since 2010. In 2010, the leading distribution provider was the first ticketing provider to introduce a free insolvency protection that is automatically included with every HR-169 ticket.

Securtix guarantees reimbursement if a service issued on an HR-169 document with any of Hahnair’s partner airlines is cancelled due to insolvency. Additionally, stranded passengers who have already started their journey before the insolvency occurred, receive a refund for the unused part of the ticket including taxes. They also benefit from compensation covering the costs for a new ticket up to a total amount of 125 euros, as well as the costs for meals and hotel accommodation (up to 75 euros) and other expenses (up to 50 euros). And finally, travel agents are compensated for the additional efforts of catering to stranded passengers.

“We want travel agents to book our HR-169 tickets with confidence”, says Kimberley Long, Vice President Agency Distribution at Hahnair. “Our free insolvency protection is a strong signal that any of our more than 350 partner airlines can be safely booked, regardless of the size of the airline or the current economic climate. We are proud to celebrate this milestone of 50 million insolvency-safe tickets. We hope that Securtix will continue to be a valuable service to our 100,000 travel agent partners in 190 markets worldwide”.
