9 airlines to test IATA’s NDC scheme
The International Air Transport Association (IATA) announces further growth in the number of airlines participating in pilots and live deployments to test and evaluate the New Distribution Capability (NDC) schemas. The airlines participating in this are Lufthansa, Qantas, China Southern Airlines, Swiss Airlines, Hong Kong Airlines, Avianca, Gol Linhas Aereas, Insel Air, and Ukraine International Airways. “We welcome the participation of these airlines as well as their travel agent and technology partners in helping to test and implement the NDC Standard. NDC will modernise the way that airline products are presented through travel agents as well as help to promote efficiency and innovation. NDC is a pro-consumer move that is unleashing innovation. With NDC, travellers shopping through agencies will be able to compare the full product offering—tailored to their specific requirements,” said Tony Tyler, Director General and CEO, IATA. IATA also announced the launch of the NDC microsite with information on how to get started with NDC, including links to instructional videos.
