Saudi Arabia’s new digitally native airline, Riyadh Air, is partnering with TPConnects Technologies to bring its unique NDC content and servicing capabilities on the Iris aggregator platform.
Riyadh Air utilises a fully native offer and order technology to deliver its retailing experience.
According to the airline, this collaboration will enhance its distribution capabilities while expanding TPConnects’ robust airline partnerships.

The integration delivers several advantages to travel sellers:
• Access to all fare families and ancillaries
• Dynamic offer creation with real-time pricing
• Seamless booking and servicing capabilities
“We are thrilled to be working with Riyadh Air on this exciting partnership,” said Giuseppe Candela, VP – global sales at TPConnects Technologies.
“Riyadh Air’s innovative approach to offer and order management is truly groundbreaking, and we are confident that the Iris platform will enhance revenue potential while delivering greater flexibility and choice for both, the airline and travel sellers.”
This collaboration marks a significant milestone in Riyadh Air’s journey to establish itself as a world-class airline while advancing TPConnects’ mission to transform airline distribution through innovative technology solutions.
