Flight sales

Flight sales overview

Understand the event-based flight sales module for managing commercial and public flight experiences from event setup to ticket execution.

Last updated 2026-03-28

The Flight Sales module is designed for organisations that sell commercial or public flight experiences. It uses an event-based model where everything — setup, capacity planning, slot management, and ticket tracking — happens within a single event record.

What Flight Sales covers

  • Insights — commercial performance overview with ticket and revenue data
  • Event — event configuration with dates, aircraft, capacity, and public booking links
  • Slots — time slot management within an event
  • Tickets — operational ticket list for event-day execution

How a flight sales event works

The typical workflow for running a flight sales event is:

  1. Create an event — set the date, title, aircraft types, passenger capacity, and rotation time
  2. Configure slots — define the time slots available for booking within the event
  3. Publish the event — share the public booking link or QR code so customers can book
  4. Monitor bookings — check ticket sales and slot availability in the Insights tab
  5. Execute on event day — use the Tickets tab to manage departures, check passenger details, and track progress

Key concepts

Event — A single flight sales occasion on a specific date. All configuration, slots, and tickets belong to one event.

Slot — A bookable time window within an event. Each slot has a start time, end time, and ticket capacity.

Ticket — A confirmed booking for one or more passengers in a specific slot. Tickets include passenger details and flight assignment.

Rotation time — The time between flights needed for turnaround (passenger boarding, briefing, aircraft preparation).

Getting started

  1. Go to Flight Sales
  2. Create a new event with the Event tab
  3. Add time slots in the Slots tab
  4. Validate capacity and timing
  5. Publish the booking link
  6. Monitor with Insights
  7. Manage on the day with Tickets

Good practice

  • Plan your capacity carefully before publishing — overbooking creates operational problems on event day
  • Test the public booking link yourself before sharing it
  • Use the Insights tab to monitor ticket sales leading up to the event
  • Have the Tickets tab open during the event for real-time operational management
