PCI DSS & Travel Agency BusinessThe breach or theft of cardholder data affects the entire payment
card industry with a knock on effect.
Agency potential liabilities: • Lost confidence, so customers go to other merchants.• Diminished sales.• Fraud losses.• Higher subsequent costs of compliance.• Legal costs, settlements and judgments.• Fines and penalties.• Termination of ability to accept payment cards.• Going out of business.

We are conducting a global Market Research through a survey campaign in order to understand the situation of airlines and travel agents with regards to ADMs as well as to provide concrete solutions for specific needs.The purpose is to obtain market-based data that proves what is really at stake with ADMs and understand the best way for IATA to promote best practices efficiently.
Your involvement in this study is fundamental for IATA to have a precise comprehension of the market. Please help us spread the word to EVERYONE in the industry possible!
Airlines- please let your fellow agents know that you are in a working group, which aim is to reduce ADMs and a better relationship with them, AND ask them to help us by completing the survey!
