Introducing the new Amadeus.net
April 2, 2008
Dear Amadeus.net users,
We are delighted to share with you a sample of how the new Amadeus.net website will look. Taking into account the different feedback you have made in the past we have started with the homepage and flight availability pages. We have concentrated on delivering a clean design but still allowing for the display of the large amount of information which is present on our result pages. You will alnotice that we have added a new bestfares section which allows users to find prices and book on preferred partners.
The first noticeable changes are in the graphical layout and colours. The larger header gives better visibility to the site structure and the colours differentiate between the content. Blue for the Flight pages, Green for Hotels and Orange for Cars. As a user you will also notice a clearer layout making use of the space available on the page and allowing for extra tools such as the destination cloud, quick links to this blog and also to social bookmarking sites such as del.icio.us and more. Functionally the site has improved too. A quick search has been implemented on the homepage where a user can do a direct search for flight availability (car and hotel to be introduced soon). The landing pages of each section are still available if more search options are needed to narrow the search down.
On the flight availability page you can check where you go with the interactive world map! You can easily replay one of your previous searches thanks to the new recent search recorder. There is more too; on the flight results pages we have introduced a sophisticated filter system which allows you to manipulate the results and return the best flight for yourself. Don’t miss the possibility to also select and compare flights via the clipboard.
Probably the largest difference to our content has been the introduction of fares and partners where users can book the best deals they find. You can access this from all parts of the site so once you have found the information on a flight, hotel or car rental you are now in a position to go ahead and book it too.
These changes are just the beginning; throughout 2008 we will be enhancing the site with all our current content and also adding additional information; designed to make the site the best source of information on flights, cars and hotels on the web.
We sincerely hope you will enjoy using the site!
Please do not hesitate to send us your feedback by adding your comments to this post.

Pierfranco,
Thank you for your comments. The Preferred flight options is still available at the Availability page. You can find this on http://www.amadeus.net/plnext/meb/AirSearch.action?SITE=BCEUBCEU&LANGUAGE=GB
You can change the language setting by using the language selection at the foot of the page.
I hope that this helps you find the data you wish.

I find that your website amadeus.net was much easier to download before you changed the design. The changed set-up has slowed it down tremendously and made it prone to stalling easily. For users based in countries with slower internet connections, the new changes means that many of us can effectively not use your website. It is regrettable, because whereas I used your website often before, I can effectively not get information from it anymore.
