ATSS (Air Transportation Settlement Service) is an aggregation of market representatives established to standardize the sale of passenger air transportation by accredited agencies and to ensure full, timely settlement of transactions with airlines. The executive governing body of the ATSS is the Transport Clearing House (TCH). The main members of the system are air carriers officially registered and operating scheduled flights. The positive side of such membership is business expansion due to the increase of distribution network and reduction of financial risks under conditions of transparent reporting. First of all ATSS activity is focused on protecting the interests of air carriers, but accredited agencies, which have entered into standard agreements with the Transport Clearing House, can also become members of the system.

The history of ATSS began in late 1991, when at a conference with the participation of airlines, agencies and representatives of science industry, the concept with the basic principles of the organization of the settlement was adopted. Currently ATSS is at the stage of transition to large-scale implementation of electronic technologies in the processes of ticketing and interaction between the system participants.

ATSS objectives:

  • Simplification of air transportation sales procedures.
  • Control over cash flow from accredited agencies to airlines.
  • Reduction of airlines' expenses for the maintenance of their own air transportation sales networks.
  • Reducing the terms of settlements between airlines and their counterpart companies.
  • Informing airlines about the availability and expenditures of revenue.
  • Reducing risks of revenue losses due to financial insolvency of Mutual Settlement System participants.

  • 103 scheduled airlines.
