Travel agents in the UK can now book the carrier’s NDC content
Malaysia Airlines and Amadeus have extended their relationship with the deployment of Malaysia Airlines’ NDC-sourced content for Amadeus connected travel agents in the UK.
This will give travel agents the ability to offer exclusive deals for Malaysia Airline’s customers both in the NDC platform and on Malaysia Airlines’ website.
Dersenish Aresandiran, chief commercial officer of Airlines from Malaysia Aviation Group, said: “Malaysia Airlines’ adoption of NDC is a significant step towards modernizing airline retail. Our partnership with Amadeus has been crucial in achieving our transformation goals.
“With NDC, we look forward to enhancing the shopping experience and allowing customers to personalize their travels, supporting our vision of becoming Asia’s leading travel and aviation services group.”
Javier Laforgue, executive vice president, Travel Unit and managing director, Asia Pacific of Amadeus, said: “Our partnership with Malaysia Airlines is another major milestone in our strategy to provide deep end-to-end integrations of content via NDC into the travel seller’s technical ecosystem, as well as supporting the industry’s ongoing retailing journey.
“With this deployment of NDC, we start building on the momentum made over the years to support modern retailing and once more demonstrating our commitment to continue offering through the Amadeus Travel Platform more travel content globally and at scale.”
The news comes after the carrier renewed its Amadeus Altéa Passenger Service System (PSS) contract in 2022.
This was in addition to adopting a host of other technology solutions.
