Support your clients every step of the way
From booking queries to last-minute changes mid-trip, Deskpro gives travel and tourism teams the tools to resolve issues quickly, across languages, time zones, and channels.
One platform for a global support operation
Travel support teams deal with customers across time zones, languages, and channels; often with urgent, time-sensitive issues. Deskpro brings every support conversation into a single interface, so agents can manage queries efficiently without switching between tools or losing context.
Break down language barriers
Deskpro's language packs, available in 25+ languages, apply dynamically across both the agent interface and the Help Center. Agents can translate tickets and responses in one click using the built-in Microsoft Translator.
Create localized versions of your Help Center for different geographic regions, each with its own branding, content, and language settings.
Automate routing for requests
Categorize and route incoming tickets automatically based on your settings, reducing wait times and keeping queues manageable. Auto-replies keep customers updated on ticket status without agent intervention.
Resolve issues faster with live chat
When a traveler hits a problem mid-trip, they need a fast answer. Live chat lets agents respond in real time, share Knowledge Base articles directly in the conversation, and use snippets for common queries. Agents can see what pages a customer is browsing and what they're typing before they send, giving them context to respond more accurately. Customers can rate the conversation when it ends, giving you immediate feedback on your team's performance.
Track performance across your team
Deskpro's dashboards and reporting tools give you a clear view of response times, agent activity, and customer satisfaction. Set Service Level Agreement (SLA) targets per team or brand and get automated alerts when goals are at risk. Schedule reports to go out to relevant stakeholders automatically.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does Deskpro handle high-volume support during peak travel periods?
Travel support teams face volume spikes that are predictable in timing but still punishing to manage. Deskpro handles this through automated ticket routing and follow-ups, SLA-based prioritization, and queue management that keeps agents working the right tickets rather than triaging manually. For agencies managing multiple brands or regional teams, a multi-brand help desk keeps each brand's queue separate while giving central operations a single view across all of them.
Can Deskpro support customers across multiple languages and time zones?
Yes. Deskpro is a multi-language help desk and offers 20+ language packs that apply across both the agent interface and the Help Center, allowing agents and customers to provide and receive support in their preferred languages. Additionally, agents can translate tickets and responses in a single click using the built-in AI-powered Microsoft Translator. Travel companies running regional support operations across the UK, EMEA, and the US can set up routing and SLA rules per geography, channel, or inquiry type without custom development. See how this fits inside Deskpro's omnichannel customer support platform for the full picture.
How does live chat help travel support teams resolve mid-trip issues faster?
When a traveler has a problem while they’re on the go, they don’t want to send an email and wait. Live chat software gives agents a real-time channel to resolve those moments before they escalate into complaints or refund requests. Deskpro's live chat includes message previews so agents can see what a customer is typing before they hit send, which means faster, more accurate responses. Agents can share knowledge base articles directly inside the conversation and use pre-written snippets for common queries like booking changes, cancellation policies, and baggage fees. Conversations convert to tickets automatically, with the full chat history attached, so nothing gets repeated. For travel teams with high chat volume, agents can manage multiple conversations simultaneously without losing context.
Can Deskpro handle support across multiple travel brands from one platform?
Yes. Tour operators, hospitality groups, and travel companies managing several brands can run separate, independently branded support operations from a single Deskpro instance. Each brand gets its own Help Center, ticket queues, routing rules, and knowledge base software with localized content. Agent permissions are controlled per brand so a support team for one brand has no visibility into another brand's tickets unless you configure it that way. Reporting can be viewed at the brand level or consolidated across the whole group. The multi-brand help desk capability is included across all Deskpro plans, not gated behind an enterprise tier.
What channels does Deskpro support for travel customer service?
Deskpro lets you connect support channels including email, live chat, voice, SMS, WhatsApp, and web forms, all feeding into a single unified inbox. Agents work from one interface regardless of which channel a query came through. A booking inquiry that starts on WhatsApp and continues by email stays in one ticket thread. For travel companies that also support internal operations teams, Deskpro integrates natively with Slack and Microsoft Teams for internal ticket management. The full omnichannel helpdesk setup means no channel sits outside the support workflow.
How does Deskpro help travel companies measure and improve support performance?
Deskpro's customer support analytics include real-time dashboards, custom report building, and SLA tracking across every channel. Travel support managers can monitor response times, resolution rates, agent workload, and customer satisfaction scores without pulling data manually. SLA targets can be set per team, per brand, or per channel, with automated alerts when a ticket is at risk of breaching. Reports can be scheduled to go out to relevant stakeholders automatically. For agencies with multiple regional teams or brands, reporting can be scoped per operation or consolidated across the group. That visibility matters most during disruption events when volume spikes and response time commitments are hardest to maintain.
Does Deskpro work for both B2C travel companies and B2B travel management firms?
Yes. Consumer-facing travel brands use Deskpro to handle booking queries, itinerary changes, and post-trip complaints across high-volume, multi-channel environments. Corporate travel management firms and B2B operators use it differently: account-level support, contract queries, and internal escalation workflows where the end customer is a business client, not an individual traveler. Deskpro's permission and visibility controls support both models. For B2B travel operations, the B2B customer service setup lets agents manage account relationships with full ticket history per client. For teams also running internal HR or IT support alongside customer operations, Deskpro handles HR help desk and IT help desk workflows from the same platform, which reduces tooling cost and keeps all support data in one place.
