AI-Powered Solutions Reshape Airline Service Efficiency and Value Chain
The Challenge
The airline was struggling with inefficiencies in handling Special Service Requests (SSRs) through its contact center. The existing process was manual, time-consuming, and complex, leading to delays and increased workload for agents. To address these operational bottlenecks, the airline sought to modernize its request handling system by adopting automation and improving overall efficiency.
The Solution
The airline implemented a modern IVR system using Google Cloud’s Contact Center AI (CCAI) suite, including Dialogflow CX. This automation enabled the airline to handle key processes—such as adding items to flights, updating reservations, and managing irregular operations (IROPs) like rebookings and refunds—without human intervention. As a result, the airline significantly improved response times, reduced operational costs, and enhanced the customer experience. The streamlined system also freed up contact center resources, enabling staff to focus on more complex tasks and driving greater business value.
The Result
Efficiency Boost: Caller wait time reduced to 2 minutes, available 24/7, enhancing self-service capabilities.
Improved Customer Experience: Integration into airline systems for user lookups and routing enhanced user satisfaction.
Successful Implementation: Delivered live demo and prototype within 5 weeks, exceeding expectations.
Competitive Advantage: Bet out competing vendors, securing the airline’s satisfaction and trust.
