Available For
One Week Only!
GTI’s lightning-fast Reservation Center is a reality
thanks to the genius of “Cheapskate Charlie” - a
new programmer hired to invent a quicker and
cheaper way to book airline tickets. Since we’ve
incorporated his innovative program, GTI has
been able to guarantee the lowest airline fares
available at the time of booking... and in
record-breaking speed. Most phone calls are
now answered in an amazing 30 seconds or less!
As a result of our improved system, an airline
revolution has swept across the family of GTI
Independent Agents. With speed and efficiency
unparalleled by any other agency, GTI has
essentially cornered the market on airline
reservations for Agents, clients, and even
major businesses. Want a guarantee? Heck,
you’ve got one! We guarantee you’ll be
shocked at how fast you get the lowest fare
available at the time of booking. So give us a try.
We can’t wait for you to give us another test flight!
The story you have just read is true. The programmer’s name has been
slightly altered to protect the privacy of Charlie “Cheapskate” Madison.

Global Travel International (GTI) does not
knowingly engage in non-compliant ticketing
techniques such as back-to-back or hidden city
ticketing. Any instance of such is a violation of
the airline's tariff and can jeopardize our
relationship with the respective airline. If you
opt to engage in any prohibited ticketing
practices, you do so at your own risk. The airlines
have the right to refuse to honor such tickets and
you may be charged a substantial penalty. If GTI
receives a charge from an airline for a noncompliant ticket that you have purchased, the
cardholder and/or passenger authorizes GTI to
place these charges on the form of payment used
to purchase the original ticket.
