TRAVELPORT has made the first “live production Qantas NDC booking” through its new Trip Services API.
Trip Services allows industry partners to connect directly to the Travelport content, with early adopter agencies including ATPI and Maxim’s Travel.
The development is the next step in plans for the Qantas Distribution Platform (QDP) “as Qantas prepares distribution of differentiated NDC content”.
QDP aims to offer enhanced, personalised content tailored to meet the individual needs of each traveller, thereby enhancing the airline’s retailing, booking and servicing capabilities.
“We know our customers need to be able to consume content regardless of its source,” according to Travelport Chief Commercial Officer – Travel Partners, Jason Clarke.
“It’s exciting to see Trip Services processing live API bookings for customers as the next step in the ongoing delivery of our multi-source content roadmap”.
Travelport said that having been the first GDS to make a live NDC booking in Oct 2018, it is now connected to the NDC content of a total of five airlines.
