Air Discount / Air Subscription Cards

A new Faces Agency feature is now available offering new Faces standard fields for the Air Subscription/Discount Card within the Preferences section. The new fields allow for the capture of Air Subscription information for

  • Air France Carte d‘abonnement

  • Air Fance Carte Abonnement Outre-Mer

  • SAS Travel Pass

Air Discount (or Air Subscription) cards are loyalty programs offered currently by Air France and Scandinavian Airlines, allowing frequent travelers to pay a fixed monthly fee for benefits such as discounts on flights, exclusive offers, and additional perks like priority boarding or extra baggage.

A standard mapping is available for Amadeus, Concur, Cytric, KDS and Sabre, for detail mapping to the different GDS/OBE please refer to Mapping - Travellers.

The feature can be activated by Circle or Umbrella Administrators

If your agency setup already has custom fields configured to store Air Discounts/Subscription, and you are interested to migrate to our standard feature, please contact faces-support@umbrella.ch.
