Finnair's NDC content now available on Travelport+
GDS and travel technology specialist, Travelport, has revealed that agency customers now have access to new distribution capability (NDC) content from Finland's flagship carrier, Finnair.
Through Travelport+, all of Finnair’s NDC content is now available, including ancillaries such as seat selection, baggage options, and other in-flight services.
PrioFlex, Finnair’s specific product for corporate customers, launched last year and is also available to be booked via NDC on Travelport+.
With this launch, Travelport’s agency customers can now view, compare, and book dynamic NDC offers from Finnair.
The addition of Finnair NDC content expands Travelport's multi-source content portfolio.
“Travelport has been a great partner to work with to provide travel agencies with greater access to better, more enriched content and offers from Finnair,” said Jenni Suomela, vice president of global sales and channel management of Finnair.
“This launch signifies an important milestone in our modern retailing journey, expanding our reach across Travelport’s global agency network to drive NDC adoption and ensure customers can easily shop and book all of our best-in-class products and services.”
“When we announced our NDC agreement with Finnair, it was with the intention of assuring our agency customers that we will deliver retail-ready content that is easily accessible, so that agents and travelers can shop, compare and book the best offers - from multiple sources - all in one place,” said Damian Hickey, global head of travel partners of Travelport.
“We have fulfilled that promise with our NDC solution, offering travel retailers comprehensive end-to-end support. Beyond booking, it empowers agents to manage trip changes in real time, ensuring an elevated level of service for travelers.”
Travelport’s NDC content and servicing solution for Finnair is now accessible for agency customers in 60 countries across Africa, Asia-Pacific, Europe, North America and the Middle East.
Travelport’s Finnair NDC solution will continue to roll out in additional countries in the coming weeks.
