Emirates has extended its partnership with Amadeus to bring in access to NDC content later this year.
Trade partners on Amadeus will be able to access Emirates’ content without incurring a surcharge from the beginning of February.
The latest agreement also means NDC content from the airline will be integrated into the Amadeus Travel Platform and made available to travel sellers.
Adnan Kazim, chief commercial officer, Emirates, said: “This is another step forward in our goal to empower our trade partners in delivering even better customer experiences. In today’s environment, and particularly as the industry rebuilds post-pandemic, everyone in the travel services chain will benefit from flexible models of engagement, multiple means to access dynamic rich content, and the ability to offer differentiated products and services.”
Decius Valmorbida, president, travel, Amadeus, said: “This renewal is another major milestone in our distribution strategy and our ongoing retailing journey. With this new agreement with Emirates, we start 2022 building on the momentum made over the years to support modern retailing and once more demonstrating our commitment to continue offering through the Amadeus Travel Platform more travel content globally and at scale.”
