Booking inquiries get answered in peak season, and travelers abroad always get through.

Dialerportal gives travel agencies a Cloud PBX built around the trip lifecycle: quote calls ring the consultants who can close them, itinerary changes reach the person who owns the file, suppliers and travelers are called on local numbers instead of expensive international minutes, and a duty line stays open when a flight cancels at 2am in another time zone.

What you get

A phone system that follows the trip, not just the caller

A travel agency's phone rings for four very different reasons: someone pricing a honeymoon, a client moving a departure date, a hotel or DMC confirming availability, and a traveler stuck at a closed airport. Dialerportal routes each one differently from the first ring.

Booking inquiries that survive peak season

A caller pricing a two-week trip will not wait on hold twice. Ring groups put your whole consultant team on the same inbound quote call so it is answered while the client still has the tab open, and call queues hold January and school-holiday overflow with a greeting instead of dropping it to voicemail.

Routing by where the client is in the trip

The auto-attendant asks whether the caller is planning a new trip, changing something already booked, or traveling right now. New inquiries land with available consultants, existing bookings go straight to the consultant who owns the file or their backup, and anyone already on the road jumps the queue.

Local numbers for suppliers and travelers

Chasing a Bali resort, a Kenyan safari operator or a European rail supplier on international minutes adds up fast across a season. DIDs in 70+ countries let you call and be called on local numbers, and a toll-free line gives clients a free way to reach you while their trip is being planned.

An out-of-hours line that actually answers

Strikes, cancellations and missed connections happen when your office is dark. Business-hours routing switches the emergency line to whoever is on duty that night, ringing their mobile softphone wherever they are, and rotating the rota is a settings change rather than a call to your phone provider.

Text travelers when calling them is expensive

A client sitting in a departure lounge overseas often has patchy data and no appetite for roaming charges. Two-way SMS on A2P 10DLC sends the rebooked flight number, the new transfer time or the hotel's address as text, and their replies come back into the same thread the consultant is already working from.

Recordings for change fees and disputes

Most travel arguments come down to what was said about a nonrefundable fare, a cancellation window or an included transfer. Call recording keeps the conversation where the client accepted those terms, so a chargeback or a supplier dispute is settled from the actual call rather than two conflicting memories.

Every call attached to the booking

Calls, durations and voicemails sync into HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Zoho or GoHighLevel against the client record, so the next consultant to pick up the file sees the whole history. Click-to-call dials the traveler or the supplier from that record, and voicemail-to-email drops missed quote requests into the inbox that chases them.
How it works

From your booking line to full 24-hour cover

Keep the number printed on your itineraries and travel documents. Your menu, your duty rota and your supplier numbers are set up by whoever runs the agency, not by an installer.

01

Port your booking line

Bring the number on your itineraries, travel documents and Google listing across untouched, then add a toll-free line for clients and local DIDs in the destinations you sell most.

02

Build the menu around the trip

Set the greeting options for new inquiries, existing bookings and travelers currently away, and decide which consultants, queue or backup group answers each path.

03

Set the duty rota

Choose what happens outside office hours, on weekends and over the holidays you sell hardest, forwarding the emergency line to the consultant on call or to a voicemail box that emails the recording instantly.

04

Read the season, then adjust

Analytics show which menu options peak in which months, how long quote callers wait before someone answers, and how many calls arrive after close, so you can staff a busy shoulder season with evidence.

AI voice agents

An AI voice agent for the calls that arrive while your office is dark

A travel agency's phone does not respect office hours: a client compares packages at 11pm, a honeymoon inquiry comes in on a Sunday, and a traveler nine time zones away calls when their connection is canceled. A Dialerportal AI voice agent picks up those calls in natural conversation, answers what it can from your own trip and booking information, and hands anything that needs a consultant to a person. It works alongside the PBX above: consultants take the calls they can reach, the agent covers the ones that would otherwise ring out.

Booking and itinerary questions at any hour

Most after-hours calls are the same handful of questions: what time is the airport transfer, what is the baggage allowance on the fare that was booked, when is the balance due, what is the resort's address, has the seat request gone through. The agent answers those from your booking and supplier information in natural conversation, in the traveler's evening or your middle of the night. It does not give visa, immigration, insurance or medical advice, and routes those questions to a consultant.

Quote requests captured instead of lost

A caller pricing a family trip to Orlando or a two-week safari will call the next agency if nobody picks up. The agent takes the destination, travel dates or flexible month, number of adults and children, cabin or room preference and rough budget, then writes it into the CRM as a quote request with a callback window the caller chose. Your consultants start the morning with briefed leads rather than a voicemail box of numbers.

A traveler in disruption reaches a human fast

When a caller says their flight is canceled, they have missed a connection or the transfer never showed, the agent stops asking questions. It takes the booking reference, the traveler's name and where they are standing right now, then warm transfers to the consultant on duty through the mobile softphone. If that consultant cannot be reached, it logs the case as urgent and alerts the backup on the rota so nobody is left waiting at an airport desk.

Planning calls booked while the interest is hot

Complex trips are sold on a proper consultation, not a two-minute call. The agent offers open slots in the consultant's calendar, books the planning call in the caller's own time zone, and reschedules or moves it when someone calls back to change the time. The consultant sees the booked slot and the trip notes together before they dial.

FAQ

Travel agency phone system, your questions

What agency owners, operations managers and senior travel consultants ask before moving the booking line and the emergency line to the cloud.

It is a cloud phone system that runs your booking line, your supplier calls and your out-of-hours emergency cover from one place. Callers choose at the greeting whether they are pricing a new trip, changing a booked itinerary or traveling right now, and each path rings a different set of consultants. Local numbers abroad, call recording of quoted terms, SMS to travelers and CRM logging are included, and consultants work from a browser or mobile softphone instead of a desk handset.

Ring groups make a new inquiry ring every available consultant at once rather than one desk at a time, so the caller reaches somebody before they try the next agency. Call queues hold the January and school-holiday overflow with a greeting and a position in line. Anything still missed goes to voicemail-to-email, which lands in the inbox that chases quotes, with the caller's number ready for a callback.

Yes. Instead of dialing hotels, ground handlers, DMCs and airlines on international rates from a landline, you can hold local DIDs in the countries you sell most, from a choice of 70+, and call over the internet from the same system. Suppliers can also call you back on a number local to them. Agencies already running SIP trunks can keep their existing carrier arrangement and route through Dialerportal.

You set business hours once, and outside them the emergency number behaves differently. It can ring the consultant on duty that night through the mobile softphone, so they answer from home on the agency's number without giving out a personal cell. It can sit in a queue for a night desk, go to a voicemail box that emails the recording immediately, or be met by an AI voice agent that takes the traveler's name, booking reference and location. Weekend and holiday cover is scheduled separately.

Call recording keeps the conversation in which a client accepted a nonrefundable fare, a cancellation deadline, a visa requirement or a change fee. When a chargeback, a complaint or a supplier dispute comes months later, you are working from the actual call rather than a consultant's memory. Recording can be enabled on the lines where it helps, and access to recordings is granted per user rather than opened to the whole office.

You keep it. Number porting brings the line printed on your itineraries, brochures and travel documents across with no change for clients or suppliers, and you can add toll-free and overseas DIDs alongside it. Most agencies have the menu, ring groups and duty routing working in hours rather than weeks, since there is no hardware to install. Plans start at $19 per seat per month, month to month, and US-based support answers in about 30 seconds.

Yes, as cover rather than a replacement for consultants. Outside office hours, in overflow, or when every consultant is on another call, the AI voice agent answers in natural conversation. It handles itinerary and booking questions, takes quote requests with destination, dates and traveler count, books a planning call, and warm transfers a traveler in disruption to the duty consultant. It does not give visa, insurance or medical advice, and every call is logged to your CRM.
