Microsoft Dynamics: in the background for each step of your next holiday





Whether you enjoy flying off to tropical places or would rather spend your holidays near home, most people plan a break each year. Microsoft Dynamics is progressively being used in the travel business, which means that each step of your next journey could be supported by the technology.

Microsoft Dynamics at the Airport


A recent survey suggests that the retail aspect of airports could have a 72.9% growth over the next 5 years. Dublin Airport Authority (DAA) uses Microsoft technology across 3 Irish air terminals to enhance the customer’s experience, focusing on EPoS and other retail developments to minimise last minute holiday shopping stress. Dixons Travel is another firm who are using Dynamics AX PoS in their terminal shops.
Microsoft Dynamics could be supporting some of the outlets which you visit at the airport. Costa Coffee for example, has both automated vending facilities and proper stores in airports. They have seen a 10% revenue growth as a result of a Dynamics NAV and CRM implementation. Microsoft Dynamics may also power the airport’s Bureau de Change: TTT MoneyCorp who focus on trading currency, use Dynamics CRM to create a customised consumer experience. The Civil Aviation Authority uses CRM to ensure their pilots have valid licences – so Dynamics even helps you get your holiday off to a flying start.

Microsoft Dynamics in your room


By using Microsoft Dynamics to ensure the smooth running of a hotel, the employees have more time to take care of you. Cenium system for hotel management assists hotels in running the business by bringing together the essential information in an easy to use format. It utilizes Microsoft’s SQL Server and Microsoft Dynamics NAV to pull together all data in real-time, permitting employees to access to everything from restaurants to room rates to the hotel guilty pleasure: the mini-bar.

However, if staying close to home is what you’d rather do, ParkVision software was created to support caravan and camping grounds. Using Dynamics NAV, it incorporates HR, payroll and booking management amongst other tools.

Microsoft Dynamics helping to protect you


No one wishes to consider things turning out badly on vacation yet it's savvy to have insurances in place should the worst happen. If you were on a trip abroad and suddenly a medical emergency occured, Cega Air Ambulance would organise an immediate non-stop flight back home at short notice, offering treatments n transit and rapidly clearing customs. Implementing Dynamics CRM has allowed them to accelerate the administrative part of the procedure, getting patients home quicker.

ABTA provides financial protection and resolution of complaints, offering travellers more trust in the holiday industry. It’s implemented Dynamics CRM to incorporate their website with customer records including payments and complaints. In the case of an issue with a registered travel agency, ABTA guarantee that suitable protection is set up, so you can kick back and relax on the beach without needing to worry.
