Accelya, a leading global software provider to the airline industry, has signed a new long-term New Distribution Capability (NDC) agreement with Australian national carrier Qantas.
Accelya’s vast portfolio of innovative, airline-first solutions will be used by Qantas to continue to provide a wider range of Qantas products and enhance the shopping, booking and servicing experience of its agency partners.
As an early adopter of NDC, Qantas has been working closely with Accelya since 2017 to develop and implement a scalable approach to its retailing transformation.
“Throughout our partnership with Qantas, our modular, open solutions have supported Qantas becoming an influential disruptor in modern airline retailing,” said Sam Gilliland, CEO of Accelya.
“We’re thrilled to extend our partnership, expand Qantas’ distribution capabilities and further encourage NDC adoption in their key markets, delivering more choice and functionality for travel agents and travellers alike.”
Qantas Executive Manager Global Sales and Distribution, Igor Kwiatkowski, said: “Our technology partners like Accelya are a key part of our investment in modernizing the retailing experience for our agency partners.
“Accelya’s NDC expertise has helped us to provide the best-in-class NDC retailing experience and we look forward to delivering more value to our customers.”
