DALLAS, TX — (Marketwired) — 05/20/13 — Telvista, a leader in contact center management, and Virgin America, the award-winning California-based airline, announce a new partnership to provide contact center services to handle Virgin America-s growing volume of reservations and guest support calls. Telvista-s support will include reservations, changes to travel plans, upgrade requests, questions regarding Virgin-s Elevate frequent flyer program and general Web site questions. The service will be delivered from Telvista-s Dallas contact center and will add more than 80 new jobs to the Dallas area.
In addition, a social media support program will launch and include a comprehensive set of social media services, such as monitoring digital communications and real-time interactions with guests.
Telvista team members will work in a fully branded Virgin America workspace which reflects the look and feel of Virgin America-s onboard experience, up to and including their signature cabin mood lighting. Telvista, like Virgin America, puts its teammates first and the two companies share a strong cultural match, offering team members a modern and attractive facility with high ceilings and expansive windows, as well as an innovative work environment and amenities including on-campus yoga days and ping-pong tournaments.
“When we were considering partners, we wanted to find an organization that shared Virgin America-s commitment to employees and to our brand standards,” said John MacLeod, Virgin America-s Senior Vice President of Planning and Sales. “The facility will be a true contact center, merging reservations and guest-care calls with social media monitoring and response. Team members in the Dallas facility will assist our Virgin America headquarters-based social media team to monitor what our guests and followers say about us on social media in a state-of-the-art Social Media Care hub.”
“Our Dallas site offers the right location to meet Virgin America-s requirements,” said David Arellano, Telvista-s Chief Operating Officer. “Virgin America makes every effort to not only delight its customers but to partner with businesses that strive to achieve the same results.
