How can I maximize my profits?
One way of earning more is by promoting Special Rate (which pay a higher commission than Retail Rate/GDS bookings, i.e. ones made through Pegasus or Sabre). Special Rates have fewer cancellations and increase your cash flow because these bookings are prepaid. The easiest way to increase profits and cash flow is with the Service Fee program. Service Fees on hotel bookings give you the option of earning additional revenue through these fees for travel services booked via your website.
