How a request works at World Transfer

  1. Capture

    Route, timing, passenger numbers and required capacity captured centrally.

  2. Request

    The request goes simultaneously to suitable transport partners. Responses come together centrally.

  3. Release

    Airline operations releases the transport partner. Execution, live status and invoicing stay within the same case.

Live status instead of follow-up calls

GPS and driver events show the current status of the transfer directly in the portal. The 24/7 Service Center supports the case and steps in operationally when things change.

  • GPS position and route
  • Driver events from acceptance to completion
  • 24/7 Service Center as the central operational contact
