Travelsoft now offers global access to the entire NDC content of the Lufthansa Group | News
Travelsoft, the industry’s leading Travel Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) company, is pleased to announce that all of Lufthansa Group’s NDC content is now available on the group’s transport aggregation solution Travelsoft Transport Hub.
Through this partnership, the entire content of the Lufthansa Group will be accessible to hundreds of tour operators and travel agencies using the Travelsoft Group platforms – which currently handle bookings worth approximately €40 billion per year – internationally for all of the Group’s brands, in particular Orchestra in France and Traffics in Germany, but also Atcore, Travel Compositor and Travel Connection Technology.
This air content includes flights operated by Lufthansa (LH), Brussels Airlines (SN), Swiss International Air Lines (LX), Austrian Airlines (OS), Discover Airlines (4Y) and Air Dolomiti (EN), along with interline partners Air Canada and United Airlines.
In addition, Travelsoft partners will also benefit from exclusive NDC-only rates, such as Economy Light and Business Saver, which are no longer available via the legacy EDIFACT GDS channels.
As part of Travelsoft’s significant distribution reach, it is worth highlighting that APG, the world’s largest airline representation network and Travelsoft’s preferred technology partner, will bring the Lufthansa Group’s full content offering to its more than 3,000 European partner travel agencies worldwide through APG’s NDC portal.
Christian Sabbagh, Founder of Travelsoft, said: “We are excited to bring Lufthansa Group’s premium NDC content to our tour operator and travel agency customers worldwide who already transact approximately €40 billion per year through our platforms. This partnership illustrates how Travelsoft is contributing to the transformation of the tourism industry, giving our partners travelers more choice and deliver value while embracing the future of distribution.”
Heinrich Lange, Vice President of Digital Retailing at Lufthansa Group, said: “We are excited to work with Travelsoft to bring our full NDC content to a wider audience. This collaboration reinforces our mission to expand the distribution capabilities of modern airlines worldwide while unlocking exclusive, competitive offers for our partners. By leveraging the extensive network of Travelsoft allows us to ensure that our customers have access to the best possible travel options, enhancing their overall experience.”
This partnership furthers Travelsoft’s mission to expand airline distribution while unlocking exclusive, competitive offers for tour operators and travel agent partners around the world.
