Ryanair has expanded its corporate travel offering by entering a new distribution partnership with corporate travel distributor Kyte.
The partnership will provide Ryanair with streamlined access to the travel ecosystem, including a vast array of corporate travel partners, without the need for legacy GDSs, while Kyte’s network of corporate travel partners benefit from Kyte’s advanced new technology solution, which effectively supports Ryanair’s content and functionality within their own web, mobile, and alternative portals for a seamless corporate customer experience.
Ryanair’s Dara Brady said:“We are pleased to announce our exciting new partnership with Kyte, which will enable Kyte’s corporate travel partners to access Ryanair’s industry leading network of 3,600 daily flights across 235+ destinations, our regular schedules which cater perfectly for business travel, unrivalled on-time performance, and our budget-friendly low fares all through Kyte’s state-of-the art distribution technology.
“We look forward to working further with Kyte over the coming years as Ryanair continues to grow to carry 300m passengers per annum by 2034.”
Alice Ferrari, CEO & Co-founder KYTE added: “As the airline industry transitions to API distribution this announcement demonstrates Ryanair’s progressive mindset around supporting new technologies. I’m extremely proud that Ryanair has chosen Kyte as their first official non-GDS distribution partner.
“We are excited to be working with Ryanair in delivering easy access to the airline’s convenient low-cost travel to our corporate travel partners thanks to Kyte’s modern and standardised interface. Ryanair’s content via the Kyte channel will also be made available on our partner desktop solutions such as AirGateway.
“This partnership demonstrates our commitment to helping airlines like Ryanair broaden their reach and open new and relevant revenue streams, on their terms”.
