KembaraXtra – Travel Terms: adoption rate
The proportion of travellers or bookers within a corporate organization who follow an agreed corporate travel policy or adopt a self-booking tool. The entry notes that the word “rate” can misleadingly imply speed, but in practice it is a proportion, and it comments that “compliance” is often used for policy adherence; it also notes the term may be used more generally in travel contexts.

KembaraXtra – Travel Terms: AD75
Under IATA Resolution 880, each appointed IATA agency may receive up to two 75% discounted tickets per calendar year from each IATA airline. Eligibility is normally limited to full-time employees directly involved in selling travel who have worked for the IATA agency for 12 continuous months, and staff eligibility lists are meant to be maintained in each country; similarly ARC and IATAN maintain lists in the US. The entry adds that in the US “agent” often refers to an individual person, so lists record eligible people rather than businesses, and the discounted fares may also be known as PEP (Product Experience Program) fares.
