Trip lifecycle maps cleanly to utility then post-trip marketing.

Quick answer: Trip lifecycle maps cleanly to utility then post-trip marketing. WappBlaster runs on the official Meta WhatsApp Business Platform at a flat ₹7,999 / $200 per year with 0% markup on Meta conversation charges.

Why this matters in 2026

Travel messaging has an unusual shape: long quiet stretches, then a burst of urgent communication when something changes. The patterns below are built around that, on the official WhatsApp Business Platform with approved templates.

Recommended workflow

  1. Step 1: Booking confirmed → utility itinerary PDF
  2. Step 2: T-7 doc checklist utility
  3. Step 3: Flight change instant utility alert
  4. Step 4: Post-trip CSAT utility at day 2
  5. Step 5: Repeat traveller marketing at day 30 with consent

Frequently asked questions

What should be sent as a document rather than a message?

Itineraries, tickets and visa paperwork. A PDF in a WhatsApp thread is findable at an airport; the same document in email usually is not.

How do I handle last-minute schedule changes?

A segment of travellers on the affected booking, messaged immediately with the revised detail and a reply path. Speed matters more than polish in a disruption.

Can enquiries be qualified before a consultant is involved?

Yes: destination, dates, party size and budget band through a flow. Travel enquiries are high-volume and low-conversion, and qualifying first is what makes the consultant time economical.

Are personalised travel documents worth generating?

A per-traveller itinerary or ticket rendered with their own details is more useful than a generic attachment, and can be generated in bulk from booking data rather than assembled by hand.
