Send real-time flight status alerts to your travellers on WhatsApp — automatically

WhatsPortal sends flight delay, cancellation, and gate change notifications to your clients on WhatsApp the moment they're published — so they're informed before they reach the airport and your agency looks proactively professional.

A flight is delayed by 3 hours. Your client is already in an Uber to the airport.

01

Flight disruptions — delays, cancellations, gate changes — happen constantly. Travellers find out through airport displays, airline apps, or stressed fellow passengers. Their travel agency is the last to tell them, if at all. That's not good enough.

02

Corporate travel managers are responsible for dozens of travellers across multiple flights. Manually tracking flight status and relaying updates to each traveller is operationally impossible. The information gap leads to missed connections, stranded travellers, and angry clients.

03

When a flight is cancelled, the clock starts immediately. Rebooking windows are narrow. Agencies that alert clients and present rebooking options within minutes retain the client's trust. Agencies that don't — lose the relationship.

The solution

WhatsPortal sends flight status alerts to your clients on WhatsApp — the moment the airline publishes the update.

Real-time flight change notifications

Connect WhatsPortal to a flight data API. When a flight is delayed, cancelled, or assigned a new gate, WhatsPortal sends an instant WhatsApp alert to the affected traveller — with the updated details.

What our customers say

“One of our corporate clients told us that our WhatsApp flight alerts were the reason they renewed their travel management contract. They'd never experienced an agency that informed them proactively.”

FAQ

Common questions about travel flight status alerts

Which flight data source does WhatsPortal connect to?

WhatsPortal triggers flight alerts via webhook — connect to your existing GDS, flight status API (like FlightAware or AviationStack), or airline notification feed. WhatsPortal handles the WhatsApp delivery.

Can I send alerts for connecting flights as well?

Yes. If a traveller has a connection, set up separate alerts for each leg — departure of the first flight, arrival, and departure of the connecting flight. Each fires independently based on status updates.

Can corporate clients get a consolidated view of all their travellers&apos; flight statuses?

Corporate travel managers can receive a summary message — &apos;Here&apos;s today&apos;s status for your 5 active travellers&apos; — in addition to individual traveller alerts. Configure this for corporate accounts separately.

What does WhatsPortal cost?

Free plan: ₹0, 100 messages/month. Standard: ₹1,199/month (5,000 messages). Premium: ₹2,499/month (unlimited). All in INR via Razorpay.
