Volantio and Navitaire Partner to Unlock Post-Booking Revenue Optimization
'Volantio's platform brings a valuable capability to our customers, and we're excited to collaborate with them to help our customers boost efficiency and commercial performance.'
Volantio uses neural networks to identify high-demand flights ahead of their departure and automatically offer incentives for flexible passengers on those itineraries to move to lower-demand options, thus freeing up valuable inventory for airline resale. Navitaire's open architecture helps facilitate the adoption of innovative technologies like Volantio's with minimal integration effort.
"Our exciting new partnership with Navitaire, combined with our existing one with Amadeus since 2019, creates a powerful foundation for Volantio to accelerate sales, drive growth and continue innovating alongside our airline partners,' said Azim Barodawala, CEO and Co-Founder of Volantio. 'By streamlining integration with airlines already on the Navitaire platform, we're removing barriers to adoption and making it easier than ever to deliver real value at scale."
The collaboration also includes joint go-to-market efforts, enabling both companies to deliver greater commercial value and faster time-to-benefit for airlines worldwide.
'Navitaire's open platform architecture makes it easier for carriers to access innovative revenue optimization tools with ease,' said David P. Evans, CEO of Navitaire. 'Volantio's platform brings a valuable capability to our customers, and we're excited to collaborate with them to help our customers boost efficiency and commercial performance.'

Posthaste: Factors beyond your control may be stalling your home sale
Canadian homeowners dealing with a stalled housing market may find there are several factors beyond their control that can make their properties less appealing, according to a recent survey by Re/Max Canada. For example, the condition of neighbouring properties and the neighbourhood in general can make or break a sale for many of those looking to enter the housing market. The survey also said 41 per cent of homebuyers cited a lack of curb appeal as an impediment, while 40 per cent said rooms being smaller than they appear in the pictures turned them off. Too much competition and being too close to bars and restaurants were cited by 36 per cent and 28 per cent, respectively. 'While the home is the ultimate goal for buyers, the neighbouring properties and surrounding community often say a lot about what life might be like there for you as a resident,' Don Kottick, president of Re/Max Canada, said in a news release. 'Not all homebuyers are able or willing to see past a rough exterior to find properties with potential, and something like an unkempt streetscape could be their sign to keep on walking.' On top of those issues, homeowners in some of Canada's biggest cities are dealing with a stalled market due to economic uncertainty and elevated interest rates. In Vancouver, the average home price declined three per cent year over year in July to about $1.24 million, while prices fell 5.5 per cent in Toronto to about $1.05 million. In Calgary, home sales fell 11.6 per cent as inventory climbed to levels not seen since the pandemic. The Canadian market isn't in a complete hole, as sales climbed in both Montreal and Ottawa. But there are some factors that homeowners can easily fix to make their properties more attractive, according to the Re/Max survey. For example, cluttered or messy homes during a showing were a turnoff for 27 per cent of prospective homebuyers, while 18 per cent cited unhelpful real estate agents and 11 per cent cited sellers being present during a showing. Re/Max Canada suggests homeowners can also make their home more appealing by tidying up the landscaping, giving the home a fresh coat of paint and adding some greenery to the space. 'Buyers have more inventory to choose from and more time to shop, make decisions and see what else is out there,' Kottick said. 'When we talk about sellers adapting to current conditions, we're not just referring to price adjustment. Sellers should be mindful of every detail of their property, including the ones that they can't control — like the neighbour's front lawn.' to get Posthaste delivered straight to your inbox.

Re Expands Institutional Offerings on Avalanche with New Reinsurance Yield Products and Points Program
Re, a decentralized reinsurance infrastructure platform, has expanded its presence on Avalanche with the introduction of two new institutional-grade onchain yield products — reUSD (Basis-Plus) and reUSDe (Insurance Alpha) — along with the debut of the Re Points Program. This milestone builds on Re's mission to connect global capital markets with the speed, transparency, and composability of blockchain technology. By leveraging Avalanche's high-performance network, Re is making it easier to access fully collateralized, compliant financial products rooted in real-world insurance markets. Institutional Grade Products on Avalanche Re's newest offerings give capital allocators exposure to the economics of regulated insurance markets through a permissioned, onchain framework: reUSD (Basis-Plus): Generates yield from T-bills and delta-neutral ETH basis strategies. Features Curve liquidity, forthcoming direct redemptions, and is remote from insurance risk. reUSDe (Insurance Alpha): Backed by fully collateralized underwriting of U.S. insurance lines such as homeowners, auto, and workers' compensation, with transparent onchain tracking and built-in liquidity options. Both tokens are KYC/AML-gated, integrated with Avalanche-native DeFi protocols, and designed to meet institutional compliance standards. Karn Saroya, CEO of Re, said: 'Onchain institutional capital is looking for transparent, sustainable yield sources, and we believe reinsurance is DeFi's most compelling new category. By launching on Avalanche, we can deliver real-world returns with onchain speed, composability, and compliance. The Re Points Program gives early participants an additional way to share in the upside of this new financial infrastructure.' Re Points Program: Incentivizing Early Participation Launched alongside the new products, the Re Points Program rewards ecosystem participants for: Allocating to reUSD and reUSDe via Re's dApp Participating in Pharaoh Exchange and Blackhole Curve liquidity pools Points earned today will contribute to future rewards and incentive mechanisms, offering an additional way for early participants to benefit from engaging with Re's onchain ecosystem. Connecting Capital Across A Broader Institutional DeFi Ecosystem Re's new products are designed to operate within Avalanche's growing network of institutional-grade DeFi applications — where traditional market strategies can be executed with blockchain speed and transparency. Through integrations with Pharaoh Exchange, Blackhole, Ethena and Pendle Finance, participants can access flexible trading strategies, liquidity options, and composable onchain infrastructure, all while maintaining the compliance and oversight expected by regulated markets. By bridging fully collateralized insurance products with Avalanche's high-performance network, Re is helping create a more connected financial ecosystem — one that blends the trust of established capital markets with the innovation of decentralized finance. 'Avalanche is the ideal foundation for innovative real-world asset strategies. Re's new offerings demonstrate how regulated financial products can integrate seamlessly into blockchain ecosystems, enabling institutional adoption while expanding opportunities for builders and communities," said Eric Kang, Head of DeFi at Ava Labs.

HANOI, Vietnam, Aug. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Sun PhuQuoc Airways (SPA), Vietnam's first airline dedicated to the "resort-in-the-sky" travel model, has selected Amadeus and its industry-leading solutions - Altéa Passenger Service System (PSS), Amadeus Sky suite and Amadeus Revenue Accounting to support the airline's full-service operations and customer experience ahead of its official launch.

The system will allow the airline to deliver a seamless, efficient and data-driven experience across all its touchpoints. Sun PhuQuoc Airways is also implementing Amadeus SkyWORKS, an intelligent schedule editor that manages an overall flight schedule creation process. SkyWORKS provides numerous views to evaluate different business scenarios, allowing Sun PhuQuoc Airways to create streamlined flight schedules in a flexible way. Finally, Sun PhuQuoc will also adopt Amadeus Revenue Accounting, a solution that helps the airline to track passengers' sales revenue in real time and reconcile data to optimize accounting processes.

The partnership between Sun PhuQuoc Airways and Amadeus is announced at a time when not only is Phu Quoc emerging as a premier international resort destination, but the aviation and tourism sectors across Asia are also experiencing remarkable growth. Vietnam saw a 23% year-on-year increase in visitor numbers in the first four months of this year, with 7.7 million tourists arriving in the country, according to official data. In addition, according to the Amadeus 2025 Travel Trends, 35% of global leisure travel spending will be in Asia in 2025, and the region is set to experience a 50% growth of air passengers over the next 15 years.
