Ryanair has announced a booking and sales partnership with Travelfusion, the largest flight aggregator in the world.
The announcement follows Monday’s news that Ryanair has partnered with OTA (online travel agent) aggregator Paxport.
As well as the two aggregator deals, Ryanair has been building up straight OTA booking partnerships this year – with deals already announced with the likes of Lastminute.com, eSky, Expedia, Etraveli, TUI, On the Beach, El Corte Inglés, Braganza and loveholidays.
Ryanair’s CMO, Dara Brady said: “We are thrilled to be partnering with the world’s largest flight aggregator, Travelfusion. This exciting new agreement will see Travelfusion authorised to offer Ryanair’s low fare flights to their global network of connected OTA partners providing full price transparency. As an “Approved OTA Aggregator” this agreement also guarantees that customers who book a Ryanair flight through one of Travelfusion’s OTA partners will have access to their myRyanair account without needing to complete Ryanair’s customer verification and will receive all essential flight updates directly from Ryanair.”
Eytan Bicaci Baruh, Vice President Commercial at Travelfusion said: “Travelfusion is delighted to announce our new partnership with Ryanair. This landmark agreement will allow Travelfusion, the world’s largest flight content aggregator, to collaborate with Europe’s number one airline in our mission to deliver the very best value and richest content offering possible to our customers. We look forward to working together to make Ryanair fares and ancillaries available to all approved agencies within our global network of connected OTAs, OBTs, TMCs, and tour operators. This agreement marks a true milestone in Travelfusion’s continued journey to achieve global coverage in flight content and offer the best possible value, ancillaries, and functionality to our customers.”
