Accelya renews flydubai decade-long cargo partnership

Renewal enhances flydubai’s digital distribution capabilities

Travel software provider Accelya has announced it has signed a new multi-year FLX Cargo agreement with Dubai-based airline flydubai, creating an end-to-end cargo platform offering.

The new services will enhance flydubai’s digital distribution capabilities through a customer self-service tool, as well as enabling connectivity to a wide range of third parties through Accelya’s catalogue of APIs.

Accelya’s end-to-end platform provides insights and data for revenue opportunities and margins, while its solution digitises every aspect of the cargo booking and operations processes, from offer to settlement.

Through it, flydubai will be able to create, develop and distribute new products across multiple channels. 

The airline that has global operations in 54 countries will also continue optimising and distributing offers, managing the order lifecycle, and delivering network-wide operations and unit load (ULD) management. 

Mohamed Hassan, senior vice president of airport services & cargo of flydubai, said: “Since the launch of flydubai Cargo in 2012, we have always looked for opportunities to invest in innovative solutions to optimise our cargo capabilities. 

"The renewal and expansion of our partnership with Accelya reaffirms our commitment to adopting best-in-class practices in the industry and we look forward to enhancing our offering as we continue to grow our cargo operational reach.” 

Andrew Wilcock, chief revenue officer of Accelya, added: “Working in partnership with flydubai for over a decade, we’re proud that our solutions continue to help deliver their digital distribution strategies. 

"Now with our added Offer and Order solutions, flydubai can experience our full end-to-end platform offering, providing scalability and empowering their further growth. We look forward to continuing our momentum in the Middle East and are proud to call flydubai partners.”

The flydubai renewal supports Accelya’s strategic presence in the Middle East and is another major signing for its FLX Cargo Platform.
