American Airlines’ Lawsuit Against Ticket Consolidator Reveals Details About Hidden Practices

Dennis Schaal , Skift

August 25th, 2023 at 4:24 PM EDT

The whole airline consolidator business model lends itself to cutting corners and difficulties in enforcing contractual rules.

Dennis Schaal

American Airlines has sued airline ticket consolidator U.S.A. Gateway — which does business as GTT Travel — alleging that GTT duped travelers into thinking they were booking direct with American, and then gouged them with exorbitant fares and fees.

The ticket consolidator business isn’t well known, even to some travel industry insiders. But the lawsuit, filed late last month, opens a window into the business model. GTT has until September 22 to respond to the airline’s complaint.

Michael Hurst, an attorney with Lynn Pinker Hurst & Schwegmann who represents GTT, told Skift:

“GTT strongly denies the allegations in this litigation. In this case, and in other recent filings, American seems to be blaming the industry’s operational deficiencies on its business partners and others. GTT values the company’s decades-long relationship with American and regrets the rush to litigate, and hopes to amicably and productively work together to resolve any issues. If the parties cannot successfully resolve this matter, GTT is prepared to vigorously defend itself against these unfounded claims.” 

GTT’s website states it is “the largest air ticketing consolidator in the U.S.,” and the lawsuit notes that it claims to generate annual “turnover” of more than $2 billion.

Airlines may use consolidators so they can sell otherwise empty seats at steep discounts without publicizing how much they are reducing their published fares.

American said that GTT — which lists partnerships with American, United, Delta, Lufthansa, Emirates and around 50 other global airlines on its website — negotiates a contract with American to get access to the airline’s fare code discounts for itself and its travel agency partners. These might include net or wholesale rates. GTT also earns incentives based on volumes of tickets sold. According to the suit, it drives those volumes by striking partnerships with travel agencies.

Here are additional ways that GTT and other airline ticket consolidators make money, according to the lawsuit:

• GTT collects fees from these partner travel agencies, including perhaps a $20 commission per booking, and it may collect an additional 3% of the total booking;
• GTT receives a volume incentive from American;
• When the travel agency partners, or sub-agencies, charge additional fees — whether legitimate or not — to travelers, GTT gets a cut.

In one instance cited in the lawsuit, a GTT sub-agent charged a flyer $1,500 for what should have been an airfare of around $1,000, and GTT allegedly helped its travel agency partner “hide the additional $500 charge.”

“GTT and its sub-agents have been engaging in extremely deceptive practices solely to profit GTT and at a cost to travelers,” American told Skift in a statement. “GTT is overcharging and hiding charges from customers and engaging in prohibited ticketing practices. Such actions are harmful and unfair to consumers, misrepresent American Airlines, and violate numerous clauses of GTT’s contracts with our airline.”

Another major point in the lawsuit is that GTT allegedly doesn’t keep track of its sub-agents’ activities, and refuses to provide their names to the airline, as called for in their contract.

The lawsuit alleged that GTT and its travel agency partners at times inflate the actual fare and pocket the difference.

These GTT contractors, the lawsuit alleges, trick consumers with deceptive phone numbers, websites, and social media posts that make consumers think they booking directly with American Airlines – when in fact they are dealing with GTT. This increases GTT’s volumes, incentives and commissions, the lawsuit alleges.

As with American’s recent lawsuits against Skiplagged and Kiwi.com, American accuses GTT and its travel agency partners of using hidden city ticketing — where a traveler deplanes at a stopover to get a discounted rate compared with paying for a direct flight — and not passing the savings along to the traveler.

“In once recent example, GTT booked 20 tickets on an itinerary that departed Dallas Fort Worth International Airport, stopped at Shanghai Pudong International Airport, and then went on to Hong Kong International Airport. Seventeen of these passengers simply got off at Shanghai and did not travel on to Hong Kong, leaving those seats empty,” the lawsuit claimed. “GTT and/or one of its sub-agents did this because it was cheaper than booking these itineraries directly to Shanghai, but did not even pass the savings on to the consumer, but rather pocketed money for itself.”

In another alleged area of wrongdoing, American said a sub-agent, listed as Go Travel Desk on the receipt, charged a traveler a $400 “tax fee” on a $1,086 airfare.

“There is no such thing as a ‘tax fee.’ the lawsuit said. “Yet upon seeing this $400 ‘tax fee,’ GTT took no action to remedy its sub-agent’s obvious fraud, as required by the GTAA (GTT Incentive Agreement).”

American alleged that the practices of GTT and its sub-agents’ hurt the airline’s revenue in part because travelers were sometimes trying to book directly with American but were fraudulently misdirected. And it hurts the airline’s reputation when flyers learn a seat they thought they booked isn’t available, or that they have a connecting flight they can’t reasonably make.

American accuses GTT and its travel agency partners of unethical practices and breach of contract.

“GTT’s sub-agents are using American’s tickets, data and content to engage in abusive practices and fraudulent activity, including by misrepresenting themselves to consumers, improperly seaming tickets, falsely representing certain tickets are not available, inflating ticket prices, charging made-up fees such as ‘wheelchair’ fees, seat assignment fees, and unauthorized baggage fees, hiding agency charges from the customer, and misappropriating American’s data and content in order to accomplish this,” the lawsuit says.

American is seeking damages, attorneys fees, and “that GTT pay prejudgment and post-judgment interest at the highest rate possible.”

Lying con artists

I called them thinking they were Singapore airlines and they said they were then when I got the ticket it said it was $78 to tansfer my tickets but the fees and services were $1350 CAD and when I queried them about it they threatened to cancel my ticket and charge me fees. Delt with Shaun, Absolutely disgusting. I hope their kids get hit by a bus.

Terrible Place

The only reason there is one star is because I couldn't write a review unless I rated this Terrible company. The rudeness of the people I have ever dealt with!!!! Trying to get my money back from a ticket I purchased and they have no record of it. I was on the phone for two and a half days and still nothing. I would NEVER recommend this place to anyone !!! I have contacted the BBB and the Attorney General Office. Hopefully they will take care of my problem and This Horrible Company !!!

The worst and rudest customer service…

The worst and rudest customer service ever. I called them several times in two weeks to cancel my ticket. The first time they told me the ticket should cancel through the airline, after contacting the airline, they told me I bought a ticket from this agency and this branch of GTT is responsible for canceling my ticket. Each time I called them, they gave me a new phone number as a number that is responsible for canceling my ticket (during two weeks they gave me more than 15 phone numbers and the interesting thing is that none of them were repeated and answered). When I asked for the reason they shouted at me 🤐 The funniest part is that I called the GTT office in the Seattle and they help me to cancel my ticket less than 15 minutes.

Excellent Wholesale with Amazing Auto Ticketing System

As a travel agency that's been working with GTT for over 16 years. GTT Global Team is by far one of the most efficient and helpful group in this industry. Continuously updating us on the most recent news and promotions. As well as, always willing to help out when we need. For example, if we have concerns on the terms and/or conditions, while our designated agent is not able to respond another team member is always available and willing to help. My favorite part of this new system is the auto ticketing, which is available during after hours. This new system makes our work much easier and more convenient with its 24/7 access. Absolutely love using it!!!

GTT is the best ticket consolidator that I have ever worked with. I've been in the dive travel business for nearly 25 years and working with GTT for the past 5 or so of those years. We have access to their portal which allows you to search fares, see the best flight options or even issue a ticket. We do a lot of group travel and they rates are either at or below published fares. And their in-house support staff is beyond accommodating to whatever situation we might have. Their knowledge of the different markets and best fares and their ability to find a good schedule and fare quickly is amazing. I absolutely love working with them.

Highly Recommend for travel agents

Highly Recommend for travel agents! Great staff, 24/7 support. Fast response. Friendly user website. We love the auto ticketing function where we can issue our tickets anytime, anywhere.

Gtt is by far the best consolidator I dealt with so far. Very knowledgeable staff and reliable with getting me the lowest price on the best premium airlines. I also love that GTT has a call center after hours and weekends which makes it so convenient.

Wonderful Apps for the auto-ticketing feature ! Especially using after normal office hour. And the price-checking feature is awesome as well – there are bulk fare & commission price for ARC fare, it’s easier to do the price comparison. It’s Highly recommended to all sub agencies.

Highly recommended

Highly recommended! It’s best company for travel agent to work with. Especially working with MSP branch staffs, I can’t ask for more. They have provided the best service ever. Whenever I ask for something, they give the answer right away with very good manner. Professional and helpful staffs make you feel so satisfied with the service you pay for.

BEST WEBSITE AND CONSOLIDATOR FOR TRAVEL AGENCY

I have been with GTT since 2013. When I was first frustrated with starting my business, Tien in San Diego office has helped me from scratch, and have been very supportive since then. She always tries to think for sub-agent, and constantly asks for anything we might need to increase our sales. Also, all staffs in San Diego office are very helpful, supportive. For the website, they constantly update and try to add new products so we can sell more, and you can even sell insurances for extra comm! Also, they have 24 hours support even on weekends, and off hours so if you are workaholic, this is a place.

It's worth it.

I had some doubts when I started the process, but GTT agent walked me through the process. I flew to Germany and back without a serious hiccup. I originally had two pretty good sized layovers, but they continued to look until they could get me a more direct flight. I still had a layover coming back of about 5.5 hours, but it gave me some time to deflate and make some contacts. I will be using them again. Thanks GTT !

Absolutely love this company

Absolutely love this company, they go above and beyond finding me best pricing and are always efficient. Ask for Michelle Men she truly is one of the best travel agents!

THREE MONTHS for reimbursement

It took THREE MONTHS for: Ovago Booking I.D. : O51B345 They contradicted themselves in time and dates. OVAGO is under the umbrella of GTT. From March 13th, 2020; when Elvis Arron wrote that he got full reimbursement from the Airline; to the list of agents mentioned underneath they all promised different times for resolution. They didn't recredited the card instead end up with a check from GTT U.S.A. Gateway Travel. 600 Data Dr., Suite 101, Plano, TX 75075. Dated 6-09-20 and mailed on June 10th, 2020. LOCAL mail To: notificationsjivo-mail.com; Elvis Arron; Kassandra D. ; Dorian A ; exchange ovago.com ; Janice M. ; dora.govago.com ; Marcus E. Sent: Friday, June 12, 2020, 08:55:53 PM CDT Today is Friday June 12, 2020, as of now we have not received any form of payment; not even the promised check. On March 13, 2020 Elvis Arron admitted he got full reimbursement from the airline and requested credit card information ( last four digits, expiration date ). Ever since he began to ignore phone calls and emails; it was then that I wrote my first report on Trustpilot. Next day he responded with an apologetic message that our reimbursement had been processed two days ago and asking to remove the posting. The word check was used as a form of reimbursement. Why do you send a check when is easier to recredit. Personal tantrum ?. By then over a month went by. In the meantime; we got in contact with several agents; reason why your are copied in this message; without any resolution ( because Elvis Arron was the agent single out as the one in charge? ). So all this time is a personal retaliation for the derogatory comments as a result of his unprofessionalism. This message will be copied and paste in Trustpilot, GTT, B.B.B. Trip advisor, Reddit, etc. You think going back to normal business will be smooth? Three months in this horrible ordeal? THREE MONTHS!

We purchased the tickets on November 28th, 2019. Trips were cancelled, and airlines were reimbursing full fare with the exception if you bought it thru and travel agency. Ovago's representative (Elvis Arron) has been deliberately withholding reimbursement even after stating that Ovago got the reimbursement from the airline. As of today: 5-22-2020 we haven't receive any payment. Furthermore, Elvis Arron said that he was going to send a check. So from using a credit card for purchase instead of recrediting, now they are saying: check. Nobody responds to our claim because we've been blocked.

The trains and stations of the Moscow Metro

2 Comments · Posted by Alex Smirnov in Cities , Travel , Video

The Moscow Metro is the third most intensive subway system in the world after Tokyo and Seoul subways. The first line was opened on May 15, 1935. Since 1955, the metro has the name of V.I. Lenin.

The system consists of 12 lines with a total length of 305.7 km. Forty four stations are recognized cultural heritage. The largest passenger traffic is in rush hours from 8:00 to 9:00 and from 18:00 to 19:00.

Cellular communication is available on most of the stations of the Moscow Metro. In March 2012, a free Wi-Fi appeared in the Circle Line train. The Moscow Metro is open to passengers from 5:20 to 01:00. The average interval between trains is 2.5 minutes.

The fare is paid by using contactless tickets and contactless smart cards, the passes to the stations are controlled by automatic turnstiles. Ticket offices and ticket vending machines can be found in station vestibules.

Touring the Top 10 Moscow Metro Stations

By Claudia Looi 2 Comments

Komsomolskaya metro station looks like a museum. It has vaulted ceilings and baroque decor.

Hidden underground, in the heart of Moscow, are historical and architectural treasures of Russia. These are Soviet-era creations – the metro stations of Moscow.

Our guide Maria introduced these elaborate metro stations as “the palaces for the people.” Built between 1937 and 1955, each station holds its own history and stories. Stalin had the idea of building beautiful underground spaces that the masses could enjoy. They would look like museums, art centers, concert halls, palaces and churches. Each would have a different theme. None would be alike.

The two-hour private tour was with a former Intourist tour guide named Maria. Maria lived in Moscow all her life and through the communist era of 60s to 90s. She has been a tour guide for more than 30 years. Being in her 60s, she moved rather quickly for her age. We traveled and crammed with Maria and other Muscovites on the metro to visit 10 different metro stations.

Arrow showing the direction of metro line 1 and 2

Moscow subways are very clean

To Maria, every street, metro and building told a story. I couldn’t keep up with her stories. I don’t remember most of what she said because I was just thrilled being in Moscow.   Added to that, she spilled out so many Russian words and names, which to one who can’t read Cyrillic, sounded so foreign and could be easily forgotten.

The metro tour was the first part of our all day tour of Moscow with Maria. Here are the stations we visited:

1. Komsomolskaya Metro Station  is the most beautiful of them all. Painted yellow and decorated with chandeliers, gold leaves and semi precious stones, the station looks like a stately museum.

For the first time Rosatom Fuel Division supplied fresh nuclear fuel to the world’s only floating nuclear cogeneration plant in the Arctic

The fuel was supplied to the northernmost town of Russia along the Northern Sea Route.

The first in the history of the power plant refueling, that is, the replacement of spent nuclear fuel with fresh one, is planned to begin before 2024. The manufacturer of nuclear fuel for all Russian nuclear icebreakers, as well as the Akademik Lomonosov FNPP, is Machinery Manufacturing Plant, Joint-Stock Company (MSZ JSC), a company of Rosatom Fuel Company TVEL that is based in Elektrostal, Moscow Region.

The FNPP includes two KLT-40S reactors of the icebreaking type. Unlike convenient ground-based large reactors (that require partial replacement of fuel rods once every 12-18 months), in the case of these reactors, the refueling takes place once every few years and includes unloading of the entire reactor core and loading of fresh fuel into the reactor.

The cores of KLT-40 reactors of the Akademik Lomonosov floating power unit have a number of advantages compared to the reference ones: a cassette core was used for the first time in the history of the unit, which made it possible to increase the fuel energy resource to 3-3.5 years between refuelings, and also reduce the fuel component of the electricity cost by one and a half times. The FNPP operating experience formed the basis for the designs of reactors for nuclear icebreakers of the newest series 22220. Three such icebreakers have been launched by now.

For the first time the power units of the Akademik Lomonosov floating nuclear power plant were connected to the grid in December 2019, and put into commercial operation in May 2020. The supply of nuclear fuel from Elektrostal to Pevek and its loading into the second reactor is planned for 2024. The total power of the Akademik Lomonosov FNPP, supplied to the coastal grid of Pevek without thermal energy consumption on shore, is about 76 MW, being about 44 MW in the maximum thermal power supply mode. The FNPP generated 194 million kWh according to the results of 2023. The population of Pevek is just a little more than 4 thousand, while the FNPP has a potential for supplying electricity to a city with a population of up to 100 thousand people. After the FNPP commissioning two goals were achieved. These include first of all the replacement of the retiring capacities of the Bilibino NPP, which has been operating since 1974, as well as the Chaunskaya TPP, which has already been operating for more than 70 years. Secondly, energy is supplied to the main mining companies in western Chukotka in the Chaun-Bilibino energy hub a large ore and metal cluster, including gold mining companies and projects related to the development of the Baimsk ore zone. In September 2023, a 110 kilovolt power transmission line with a length of 490 kilometers was put into operation, connecting the towns of Pevek and Bilibino. The line increased the reliability of energy supply from the FNPP to both Bilibino consumers and mining companies, the largest of which is the Baimsky GOK. The comprehensive development of the Russian Arctic is a national strategic priority. To increase the NSR traffic is of paramount importance for accomplishment of the tasks set in the field of cargo shipping. This logistics corridor is being developed due regular freight voyages, construction of new nuclear-powered icebreakers and modernization of the relevant infrastructure. Rosatom companies are actively involved in this work. Rosatom Fuel Company TVEL (Rosatom Fuel Division) includes companies fabricating nuclear fuel, converting and enriching uranium, manufacturing gas centrifuges, conducting researches and producing designs. As the only nuclear fuel supplier to Russian NPPs, TVEL supplies fuel for a total of 75 power reactors in 15 countries, for research reactors in nine countries, as well as for propulsion reactors of the Russian nuclear fleet. Every sixth power reactor in the world runs on TVEL fuel. Rosatom Fuel Division is the world’s largest producer of enriched uranium and the leader on the global stable isotope market. The Fuel Division is actively developing new businesses in chemistry, metallurgy, energy storage technologies, 3D printing, digital products, and decommissioning of nuclear facilities. TVEL also includes Rosatom integrators for additive technologies and electricity storage systems. Rosenergoatom, Joint-Stock Company is part of Rosatom Electric Power Division and one of the largest companies in the industry acting as an operator of nuclear power plants. It includes, as its branches, 11 operating NPPs, including the FNPP, the Scientific and Technical Center for Emergency Operations at NPPs, Design and Engineering as well as Technological companies. In total, 37 power units with a total installed capacity of over 29.5 GW are in operation at 11 nuclear power plants in Russia. Machinery Manufacturing Plant, Joint-Stock Company (MSZ JSC, Elektrostal) is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of fuel for nuclear power plants. The company produces fuel assemblies for VVER-440, VVER-1000, RBMK-1000, BN-600,800, VK-50, EGP-6; powders and fuel pellets intended for supply to foreign customers. It also produces nuclear fuel for research reactors. The plant belongs to the TVEL Fuel Company of Rosatom.

Rosatom obtained a license for the first land-based SMR in Russia

On April 21, Rosenergoatom obtained a license issued by Rostekhnadzor to construct the Yakutsk land-based SMR in the Ust-Yansky District of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia).
