Air France-KLM and Sabre Corporation have announced completion of a multi-year NDC distribution agreement as well as the renewal of their existing EDIFACT agreement.
Collaboration between the partners has been extended with New Distribution Capability (NDC) enriched offers, which will be marketed and sold alongside EDIFACT content, through Sabre’s GDS. The Air France-KLM NDC offers will be rolled out to Sabre-connected travel agencies in a phased approach next year.
“Our partnership with Air France-KLM reflects our commitment to modern travel retailing and a big step forward for our presence in Europe,” said Roshan Mendis, Chief Commercial Officer, Sabre Travel Solutions.
The companies say their agreement demonstrates Sabre’s continued commitment to driving value and serving the diverse interests of the various stakeholders participating in the global travel marketplace, and enables Air France and KLM to distribute their customized NDC offers, thanks to continuous pricing and tailor-made bundles, to the global network of Sabre-connected agencies.
“This will support our travel agent partners to provide the Air France-KLM enriched and attractive NDC offer, giving the travelers a wider range of options to enhance their journey, from start to finish,” said Angus Clarke, Chief Commercial Officer, Air France-KLM.
