Ukuqala ngo-Juni 1, i-2008, i-Thai Airways International iya kwenza ithikithi ye-elektroniki ifumaneke kuzo zonke iinqwelomoya zayo, ngokuhambelana nemimiselo ye-International Air Transport Association (IATA).
I-Thai Airways iqinisekise ukuba amatikiti ephepha esele ekhutshiwe asenokusetyenziswa de kube ngumhla wokuphelelwa kwetikiti. Ukongeza, amatikiti ephepha aya kukhutshwa kwiinqwelomoya ezibandakanya ukuhamba ngenqwelomoya engenawo i-E-ticketing.
"Itikiti le-E yeyona ndlela isebenzayo yokuthengisa itikiti kubakhweli kunye neenqwelomoya ngokufanayo," utshilo uMnu. Pandit Chanapai, uSekela Mongameli weThai, uRhwebo. "Yehlisa umngcipheko wokuphulukana namatikiti, ubusela, amatikiti ephepha lomgunyathi, yenza utshintsho lwendlela lube lula kwaye yenza uluhlu olubanzi lweendlela zokuzenzela iinkonzo."
Ukwenza amatikiti e-elektroniki indlela eqhelekileyo yokuhambisa amatikiti ikwaza neenzuzo ezihambelana nokusingqongileyo kunye nezonga iindleko. Ngamatikiti amaninzi enziwe nge-elektroniki, iphepha elincinci liya kusetyenziswa ukuprinta nokuthumela amatikiti ephepha. Itikiti lephepha lixabisa i-10 yeedola ukusetyenzwa ngelixa i-e-ticketing inciphisa loo ndleko ukuya kwi-1 yeedola. Ishishini lenqwelomoya liya konga ngaphezulu kwe-3 yeebhiliyoni zeedola ze-USD ngonyaka ngamnye ngelixa libonelela abakhweli ngenkonzo engcono.
I-E-ticketing yiprojekthi ebalaseleyo yenkqubo ye-IATA “Yokwenza Lula ishishini”, efuna ukwenza uhambo lube lula ngakumbi kwaye lungabizi kakhulu. Xa inkqubo yaqala ngoJuni ka-2004, kuphela i-18% yamatikiti akhutshiweyo kwihlabathi jikelele yayingamatikiti e-e-tikiti, anamatikiti ephepha angaphezu kwezigidi ezingama-28 akhutshwa rhoqo ngenyanga. Ukususela ngoko, inani liye lancitshiswa laya kutsho ngaphantsi kwezigidi ezi-3.
I-IATA imele iinqwelo-moya ezingaphezulu kwama-240 eziquka i-94% yezithuthi zomoya ezicwangcisiweyo kumazwe ngamazwe.
