Is the Advanced Diploma in Air Ticketing & Reservation System (Amadeus) only for experienced ticketing staff?

It is designed with some prior exposure in mind. Complete beginners are usually steered toward a certificate first, then to the advanced diploma once core Amadeus literacy is in place.

How does this differ from the certificate in Amadeus or Apollo?

A certificate gets you to functional booking and ticketing. This advanced diploma layers in fare construction, refunds, reissues, complex itineraries and supervisor-level workflows.

Will it help me work in corporate travel?

Yes. Corporate travel agencies particularly value staff who can manage complex business itineraries, schedule changes and exchanges accurately, which is the heart of this diploma.

Is the advanced diploma recognised internationally?

Amadeus knowledge is transferable across markets. Specific local recognition depends on the country and employer, so confirm in your target market.

Can I study the diploma online?

Yes, a distance-learning route is available alongside on-campus study.

How much does it cost and how long does it take?

Tuition fees and durations vary by mode and intake. Admissions can share current details on enquiry.

Advanced Diploma in Air Ticketing & Reservation System (Amadeus) at HICL

Amadeus is the most widely deployed GDS in Europe and many other markets, sitting under a large share of corporate travel and traditional agency activity. Knowing it at entry level gets you a job. Knowing it at advanced level — fare construction, complex itineraries, refunds, reissues, advanced commands — moves you into senior ticketing and supervisor roles. The Advanced Diploma in Air Ticketing & Reservation System (Amadeus) targets that step up.

It is meant for people who already know basic Amadeus or have ticketing experience and want a serious, employer-respected credential.

Why an Advanced Credential Pays Off

Most agencies have plenty of staff who can build a simple PNR. Far fewer can rebook a complex multi-segment ticket after a schedule change, calculate a manual fare, apply the right tax break-down or handle a partially used ticket without losing money. The Advanced Diploma in Air Ticketing & Reservation System (Amadeus) is built around that gap — the senior ticketing work that quietly defines who an agency keeps on the bench.

Who This Advanced Diploma Is For

Working ticketing staff aiming for senior agent or supervisor roles.
Travel consultants who currently use a basic level of Amadeus and want depth.
Call centre and corporate travel staff handling complex bookings.
Graduates of a Certificate in Air Ticketing wanting to step up to advanced standard.

Career Pathways

Graduates of the Advanced Diploma in Air Ticketing & Reservation System (Amadeus) typically progress into senior ticketing officer, senior travel consultant, fares specialist, queue supervisor and team lead roles within travel agencies, airline back offices and corporate travel teams. Outcomes depend on local market demand and the depth of your hands-on experience with live PNRs.

How the Programme Is Delivered

The advanced diploma is delivered through structured units, applied exercises and case-based assessments using Amadeus-style workflows. Both on-campus and distance-learning routes are supported. Module sequencing and intake calendar are confirmed at enrolment.

Entry Requirements

Completion of secondary school or equivalent.
Prior exposure to Amadeus or to airline ticketing work is strongly recommended.
