We offer modernized solutions to transform how airlines interact with travelers. Created by the International Air Transport Association (IATA), NDC streamlines and enriches the booking process while ensuring personalized travel solutions and a dynamic and efficient experience for your clients and businesses.
NDC didn't appear out of thin air, it is the result of
years of technological evolution that brought us here. At a time when
traditional booking systems were limited, offering essential
ticket sales, IATA introduced us to solve long-standing
problems in the airline industry, particularly with outdated
Global Distribution Systems (GDS).
Developed to offer real-time customization and direct
communication between airlines and booking platforms, NDC
carries the potential to showcase more than just flight seats.
With our services, travelers can now access everything from
meal options to baggage upgrades with just a few clicks.
Airlines first adopt NDC standards, upgrading their systems to accommodate this innovative technology.This allows them to bypass legacy GDS platform and communicate directly with booking systems.
With NDC, direct connections are established between airlines and booking platforms through APIs while eliminating the middleman and enabling real-time data exchange.
Forget about static flight listings, as NDC generates real-time, personalized offers based on traveler preferences and search behavior. Expect dynamic pricing, customized ancillaries, and offers that are customized just for you.
Once a traveler selects their perfect flight and extras, the booking is confirmed instantly, and the system provides real-time updates, ensuring a seamless and hassle-free experience from start to finish.
At NDC, you are not just buying any seat, rather choosing from a menu of personalized options, all in real-time.
Real-time updates mean that the price you see is the price you get. No surprises, except for a few good ones!
With NDC, the system knows your preferences. Hence, you can expect personalized experiences based on your traveler profile.
From extra legroom to your choice of food, NDC allows airlines to directly promote ancillaries to you, creating a customized experience every time.
Many of the world’s top airlines like American Airlines, ANA, Austrian
Airlines, British Airways, Brussels Airlines, and Cathay Pacific have already
embraced NDC to modernize their booking processes. Thus, whether it is
about offering a customized in-flight experience or streamlining the
purchase of extras, NDC is the one shaping the future of comfortable and
hassle-free air travel.
Have you heard that NDC is just a commercial strategy and thinking
about whether it is true or not? Well, let us do the honors and clarify that
NDC is all about technology; it isn't about selling more tickets but about
selling them smarter. It allows airlines to offer more transparency, better
pricing, and personalized options, elevating the customer experience.
Transitioning to NDC has its challenges. Airlines and travel agencies must
navigate integration compiexities, retain teams, and update legacy sys-
tems. But the benefits are richer content, dynamic pricing, and personal-
ization which are all worth the investment.
NDC is just the beginning. With advancements in technology, expect even
more personalized travel experiences, faster booking processes, and en-
hanced customer interactions. The future of airline distribution is bright,
and NDC is the one in the spotlight.
