About

We're going on 50 years in business, but don't let our age fool you. Our company is at the cutting edge of technology and is constantly working with our suppliers to put more cash in your pocket.

High commissions and low nets on over 90 carriers coupled with rock bottom net rates on over 200,000 hotels worldwide. If your customer is traveling internationally, we'll help you make money and look like a star.

GDS users we're not pushing you to a booking engine, you get full access to our pricing right on the GDS.  You see our price, just add your fee and sell as well as having full access to your PNR's. No GDS? You're covered too...call or book online at ctsfares.com and get access to our nets and commissions. Commission checks? We pay every week. Boom!

Our CTS ticketing department is open 24/7, three hundred and sixty five days a year. Need an exchange at 4 am? Got a fare that's expiring at midnight? CTS has you covered! We help our customers all day every day.

Yes we're the fastest growing consolidator in the US and guess what? Our customers are growing with us too. Agencies that buy airline tickets from us grow their airline sales an average of 10% per year. We are helping our customers every step of the way, whether its a white label booking engine, co-op marketing or social media assistance.
Our team realizes that if they grow...we grow.

Cosmo is the newest addition to our family. He's a robot that takes care of your business when you can't. He notifies you when your customer has a schedule change and will even put your agency logo on e-tickets. Cosmo doesn't sleep...he checks your reservations for a lower fare, finds you seats, and notifies you of schedule changes while you're snoozing away.

We're here for you. Try us out. Come and join the CTS family!
