Amadeus remains fully committed to deployment of NDC across travel ecosystem
Expedia Group adopting Amadeus NDC technology offers significant endorsement for industry-wide rollout
Amadeus has expanded a strategic partnership with Expedia Group, with the travel technology innovator set to deploy New Distribution Capability (NDC) technology for the leading global online travel agency. This multi-year agreement reinforces Amadeus' commitment to accelerate the industry evolution towards modern, enhanced retailing, and to help the travel ecosystem to deliver value that supports both industry growth and an improved traveler experience.
Commenting on the agreement, Chris Hodges, Vice President, Global Connectivity & Partner Solutions at Expedia Group, said: "Renewing our partnership with Amadeus and integrating its aggregated NDC content to our connectivity portfolio marks a significant step forward in our collaboration. This move further emphasizes our commitment to offering travelers the widest range of choices and personalized experiences, in line with the industry's ongoing embrace of NDC technology."
NDC allows airlines to easily build, and tailor offers using the latest merchandising techniques, and to efficiently present and distribute them in a way that enriches and enhances the shopping experience for travel sellers such as Expedia Group and its customers.
Sam Abdou, Executive Vice President Global Sales Airline IT, Distribution and Global Online Travel Agencies, Amadeus, said "Amadeus is determined to enable all stakeholders to make the most of the potential that NDC can deliver, and bringing one of our largest online travel agency partners onboard is a great illustration of this. Building on our relationships with both airlines and travel sellers, we are in a strong position to foster cross-industry collaboration on NDC to the benefit of travelers everywhere."
Amadeus has worked with Expedia Group for nearly two decades. Expedia Group is one of the largest online travel agencies in the world and provides industry-leading technology solutions to fuel partner growth and success.
