South Pacific Division (SPD) Travel Service, the licensed travel agent of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in the South Pacific, has introduced a new online booking system that will make it easier to purchase domestic and international air tickets.

The new online booking system compares air fares-offering the best fare of the day-from various airlines. Church employees and members can purchase air tickets from the website at any time of the day.

"This website will make it very convenient for people to finalise travel plans, as they no longer have to waste time comparing airfares on various websites. At our site, they will be able to purchase the best fare of the day with no additional fees," says Jacqui Haynes, manager
of SPD Travel Service. "We have been a part of the church for more than 18 years and because we are not for profit, our rates will be highly competitive."

Church employees and members can also check visa requirements, organise car hire and accommodation, purchase travel insurance and more on the website. "We
want to help take the stress out of travelling and be a one-stop shop for all kinds of travel needs," says Ms Haynes. "And should church members ever need to contact
us or need assistance, they will talk to a person, not a machine."

SPD Travel Service was formed in 1992. All profits earned by the service are given to the SPD to help the mission of the church in the South Pacific.
