The SkyBid approach does not introduce public discounts or alter fare structures. Seats are allocated through a controlled bidding process, where only the highest offers are accepted.
Upgrade bidding applies to already sold seats. This approach focuses on unsold inventory, introducing a new revenue layer before departure.
No. The mechanism operates alongside existing pricing systems without modifying published fares or fare rules.
The bidding window can be structured outside high-yield booking periods, reducing cannibalization risk.
No. SkyBid can be tested as a standalone pilot, without requiring changes to existing reservation or revenue management systems. PSS integration is an explorable long-term option but is not required.
The airline retains full control over how many seats are available, on which routes, and when bidding occurs.
Yes. The pilot can be limited to selected flights.
Yes. A working SkyBid prototype is already built and can be demonstrated.
A SkyBid test phase (pilot) can be run over a defined period, typically 60–120 days, depending on airline preference.
