What the VIP Direct Booking Privilege Is
The essential difference from ordinary OTAs
| Dimension | OTA platform | iFlyPlus VIP direct |
|---|---|---|
| Booking channel | Public inventory system | The hotel's official direct VIP channel |
| Room selection | Publicly sellable types | Including hidden suites and executive floors |
| Upgrade privileges | None | Complimentary upgrades, late check-out, welcome courtesies |
| Service response | Queued waiting | A dedicated advisor, one-to-one, immediate |
| Scarce inventory | Not bookable | Priority allocation |
Case Study: Aman VIP Direct Booking
Why Aman is so hard to book
Aman operates just 34 hotels worldwide and is known for extreme inventory control:
- Public channels — typically require booking 3–6 months ahead
- Peak dates — sometimes still sold out 12 months out
- Hidden inventory — certain villas and suites are never publicly listed
Aman privileges for iFlyPlus members
- Official direct channel — connected straight to Aman's headquarters VIP booking desk
- Hidden suite allocation — villas and suites invisible to ordinary channels
- Priority upgrades — a standard-room booking can be upgraded to a suite
- Exclusive courtesies — welcome rituals, a dedicated long-term advisor, customised dining
Direct access at popular Aman properties

Case Study: Rosewood VIP Direct Booking
Rosewood's scarcity
Rosewood is known for its "residence-style" luxury, with only 40+ properties worldwide:
- Strict inventory control — peak dates are nearly always full

- Exclusive courtesies — opened only to select partners
Rosewood privileges for iFlyPlus members
- Direct booking — connected to Rosewood's group VIP reservation system
- Hidden room types — certain suites and residences are not publicly listed; iFlyPlus can book them
- Upgrade assurance — book a standard room and, subject to availability, be upgraded to a suite at no charge
- Residence courtesies — a dedicated long-term advisor, customised dining, welcome rituals
