What is price monitoring?

After each flight or hotel booking through Intertours, an automated price monitoring system runs continuously. The system observes whether the booked price drops. When a lower price is detected, it automatically rebookings — to the same route, the same hotel, the same conditions. Result: Your company pays less without changing your booking process.

Why does this make sense?

Flight and hotel prices are not static. Airlines and hotels adjust their prices daily — based on demand, available capacity, and algorithms. A flight that costs EUR 450 today may be available for EUR 350 in three days — same route, same time, same cabin. Without monitoring, this price movement goes unused. Price monitoring closes this gap.

What changes in your daily work?

The good news: Nothing changes in your daily process. You book as usual. The system runs fully automated in the background.

The even better news: You gain control over a cost category that has previously been uncontrolled — namely how prices move after booking. Many organizations book correctly, but then don't manage prices afterward. Price monitoring makes this post-booking management automatic.

What exactly changes for me as a travel manager?

How do I see the realized savings?

You have several ways to monitor results:

• Real-time dashboard: All monitored bookings and completed rebookings are visible live — with savings amounts, breakdown by flight and hotel. Contact support@intertours.de to obtain dashboard access.
• Monthly Savings Report: A consolidated CSV report with all month's rebookings — original price, new price, savings per booking.

Which KPIs improve?

Several classic travel management KPIs benefit:

• Cost per trip: Decreases through automatic rebookings.
• Average airfare: Becomes lower.
• Average hotel rate: Decreases through rate optimization.
• Travel program ROI: Improves through realized savings.
• Policy compliance: Remains unchanged — no new regulations required.

Can I control the system?

Yes. The system runs by default for all bookings, but you have the option to opt-out.
