AI + Custom Software for Travel Operations

High-complexity travel workflows require someone who's lived inside them.

Most agencies hit a point where manual process and operational risk outgrow the team. I help fix that with AI automation and custom software built for real travel operations. This work is rooted in 20+ years of hands-on implementation inside a travel agency and fits small to mid-sized agencies, whether they have limited in-house engineering capacity or an internal IT team that needs a jumpstart.

20+ years building technical solutions inside a travel agency

Primary focus AI automation and custom software development

Hands-on execution from strategy through implementation

20+ years

Inside live travel operations, not just advisory work.

High-complexity focus

Group air, tours, ticketing windows, and GDS-heavy workflows.

Strategy + build

From diagnosis to implementation with your team or for your team.

Where I specialize

The highest-complexity, highest-risk workflows in travel

Group air and tour operations carry more operational complexity, more manual work, and more financial risk than almost any other segment of the travel business. These are the workflows I know best and where I deliver the most value.

Who this is for

For small to mid-sized agencies with complex workflows and either limited in-house engineering capacity or an internal IT team that needs project acceleration

Ideal for agencies running group air and tour work where deadlines, changes, and coordination are creating drag. If you need a travel agency operations consultant who can lead execution or unblock your internal IT team, this is the right fit.

Who this is not for

Not a fit if you only need generic AI prompts or one-off advice

My work is focused on operational change, system integration, and measurable improvements. That includes travel agency automation, AI for travel agencies, GDS workflow automation, and Amadeus/Sabre automation where needed.

Expected outcomes

What changes after the work is implemented

As a travel agency operations consultant focused on group and GDS-heavy environments, the goal is practical transformation you can measure week to week.

Lower manual workload

Reduce repetitive processing and spreadsheet dependency by 30 to 70 percent.

Faster operational cycles

Shorten ticketing cycles and speed up group processing timelines.

Fewer costly mistakes

Reduce reissue and waiver errors with better controls and automation.

Higher advisor throughput

Free advisors from repetitive admin so they can handle more revenue work.

Lower operational risk

Improve consistency, deadline visibility, and recovery readiness.

Amadeus/Sabre automation results

Automate repetitive GDS tasks and tighten Amadeus and Sabre workflows.

How I work

Three ways to tackle your most complex travel workflows

Analyze

Diagnostic review of bottlenecks, risk, and handoff failures

I identify where work breaks down, where errors are introduced, and where teams lose time. Then we prioritize the highest-value automation and process fixes.

Build

Automation and integration in live travel systems

Turn analysis into outcomes with AI-powered automations, GDS integrations, and internal tools that reduce manual handling and improve reliability.

Advise

Technical direction for teams and in-flight projects

Ongoing guidance on architecture, AI integration, workflow redesign, and GDS optimization so your team can make steady progress without thrash.

What to expect

What working together looks like

  • 20+ years building systems and custom software solving real travel agency problems with real travel agency scale.
  • Deep expertise in the highest-pain workflows: ticketing windows, name lists, rooming lists, manifests, email processing.
  • Strategic clarity on where AI and automation create real leverage in group and tour operations
  • Practical guidance on AI integration, GDS optimization, workflow redesign, and tooling decisions
  • Hands-on execution support, not just recommendations
