Example 11: Virgin Blue Bookings

Airline bookings made outside of any reservation system need to be manually entered in Travel Services. This is done in the ‘Air Booking’ Window.

• Enter Airline Code
• Enter Departure Date
• Enter departure point ‘CODE’ (eg SYD)
• Enter ‘To City’ code for ‘destination’
• Repeat for additional flight sectors
• Other information such as Departure Times, Flight numbers etc are optional.

This is how Virgin Blue may reflect their pricing:

The GST Inclusive BASE airfare is commissionable so we must add 10% GST to the Base Airfare. Take this amount away from the total and any leftover amount is considered non- commissionable ‘taxes’.

Anything other than the BASE FARE & associated GST (10%) is considered to be a tax and for this reason these values are non-commissionable.

WORK OUT TRAVELOG PRICING USING THE FOLLOWING THEORY:

Base Fare + 10% = Full Fare, Ticketed Fare, Sell Price
$287.28 + (10% GST) $28.72 = $316.00 (GST Inclusive BASE Airfare)

GST Inclusive Base Fare MINUS the Total = Taxes
($316.00 – $362.00) = $46.00 (GST Inclusive Taxes)

When using a Client’s Credit Card – Commission is due from Virgin Blue

When using an Agency Credit Card to process tickets through Virgin Blue

PLEASE CHECK YOUR COMMISSION LEVEL WITH THE AGENCY MANAGER. FOR FURTHER CLARIFICATION OF ANY GST PAYABLE TO THE ATO WE SUGGEST YOU CONTACT THE VIRGIN BLUE ACCOUNTS DEPARTMENT OR YOUR OWN DJ SALES REPRESENTATIVE.
