Travelport and All Nippon Airways (ANA) have signed a multi-source content distribution agreement, marking Travelport as the first global distribution system to confirm a New Distribution Capability (NDC) distribution agreement with the airline.
The deal includes both NDC content and servicing, enhancing ANA’s ability to distribute its offerings through modern, flexible channels. The two companies are also collaborating to make ANA’s NDC content available via Travelport+ by mid-year 2025.
Travelport and ANA have strengthened their long-standing relationship to ensure that Travelport-connected agencies will continue to have seamless access to ANA’s extensive range of products, including ancillary services.
“This pivotal agreement confirms that agencies using Travelport+ will be able to access relevant, personalised, and enriched multi-source content from ANA, which means travellers are presented with more choice among ANA’s best offers and fares,” said Damian Hickey, global head of air partners at Travelport.
Keiji Omae, executive vice president of customer experience at ANA, added: “As we advance our NDC strategy, I am confident that Travelport can play a crucial role in helping us expand our reach and simplify the booking and servicing process as agents and travellers shop for our best offers.”
