What is NDC

• NDC is an International Air Transport Association
  (IATA)-backed, XML-based data transmission
  standard that enables carriers to distribute a
  full range of products through travel agencies
  through significantly improved communications. In
  terms of adoption, NDC is open to any
  third-party, intermediary, provider, or non-IATA
  member to implement and use. 
• It promises to give airlines complete control
  over the exact product or product suite they
  offer to any given traveler at any given time.
  However, capitalizing on the NDC opportunity will
  necessitate a complete overhaul of airline
  business processes and IT systems.

FlightsLogic is connected to Flight NDC content.
Our team of experts has extensive experience
integrating Flight NDC technology into the
airline's IT infrastructure. In addition, we
aggregate all Flight NDC content in a single
location and distribute it across systems using
an XML API.

NDC Promises to be a Game Changer
The NDC standard completely transforms an
airline's ability to serve customers and drive
revenue through the indirect channel. They can
use NDC to

• Distribute their entire product portfolio,
  including ancillaries, which account for a
  growing portion of revenue and profit.
• Offer value-added products and services based on
  personal information, if customers choose to
  disclose it.
• Display far more information about products,
  including detailed descriptions of distinguishing
  features and media such as photographs.
• Bring new products to market faster and provide a
  shopping experience based on customer
  preferences.

Why was New Distribution Capability established?

• NDC was developed to help the travel industry to
  evolve in its sales of air products to
  corporations, leisure, and business travelers.
  IATA has now launched NDC (new distribution
  capability), an XML-based data transmission
  standard that allows airlines to overcome the
  challenges of their current distribution system.
  NDC allows its additional services to make use of
  rich content. IATA now handles 95 of the airline
  industry.
• In the world of the internet, with the growth of
  technology, travel agencies and individual
  distributors are adopting cutting-edge travel
  technology tools and mobile apps to assist global
  customers while increasing revenue. With the
  advancement of technology, agencies began using
  online flight reservation systems, allowing
  end-users and sub-intermediates to easily book
  flight deals online.
• As a result, many travel start-ups, both
  non-IATA, and IATA intermediates are opting for
  the OTA model. The IATA NDC online reservation
  software assists the end traveler in selecting
  seats, purchasing auxiliary services, upgrade,
  cancellation, etc. Therefore, Airlines System
  enables NDC-based collection and IT services to
  airlines, travel intermediaries, and third-party
  vendors in the travel industry.

The benefits of NDC

• NDC benefits include
• Even if you purchase from a third party, you will
  have direct access to upgrades, exclusive
  packages, and limited-time offers.
• Your entire experience can be tailored to your
  specific preferences.
• You can compare all airline options, including
  their various services, products, and promotions,
  in addition to the price.
• Airlines can distribute their products more
  widely and quickly through third-party agents or
  websites.
• Travel agents can sell the same content that
  airlines do on their websites.

How Will New Distribution Capability Help Travel
Agencies?

• NDC has the potential to streamline a travel
  agent's workflow, making it easier to book an
  airline ticket, especially for corporate agents.
  This convenience and transparency will be
  extended to online travel bookings as well. NDC
  is a new approach to airline retailing that
  includes rich content for end-users.
• FlightsLogic is linked with New Distribution
  Capability via NDC Connectivity to provide
  end-to-end integration of airline content based
  on customer requirements. It can be implemented
  by any business, including an IT provider,
  intermediary, third party, or a non-IATA member,
  to drive forward the NDC and facilitate airline
  distribution globally. 
• For enhanced travel retailing capability with the
  adoption of NDC, we have been working with
  airlines, online travel agencies, tour operators,
  and customers to automate the airline
  distribution process by addressing the
  limitations of product differentiation, rich
  content access, shopping experience, and there
  are many benefits of NDC Airline for airlines,
  travel agents, GDSs, IT providers and travel
  startups and companies.

• FlightsLogic is integrated with GDS Flight API
  integration, allowing travel agents and travel
  portal websites to book flights online. We have
  also designed and developed booking engines that
  are integrated with GDS functionalities and are
  very useful for airlines.
• We work with all the major GDS providers, travel
  consolidators, and integrate with Amadeus GDS,
  Travelport GDS, Sabre GDS which supports to
  operate reserving airline tickets, hotel rooms,
  rental cars, and other travel sectors.
• Without the Flight Booking System, Travel Portal
  Development is undoubtedly incomplete. The portal
  is directly connected to the APIs of the major
  GDS and LCC operators, allowing customers to
  search and book flights at their leisure.
• FlightsLogic is connected to Flight NDC content.
  Our team of experts has extensive experience
  integrating Flight NDC technology into the
  airline's IT infrastructure. In addition, we
  aggregate all Flight NDC content in a single
  location and distribute it across systems using
  an XML API.

  airlines. We provide best-in-class tour operator
  and travel booking software solutions to global
  travel agencies, DMCs, OTA portals, IATA agents,
  and tour operators. With our Flight NDC, online

Why New Distribution Capability?

• Increased Fare Pricing Bands Airlines can
  implement "Continuous Pricing" because they are
  not constrained by limited Price Bands in GDS
  (Global Distribution Systems) and can offer more
  gradual, smaller Fare changes as demand and
  supply change. As a result, a Traveller on an NDC
  connection is more likely to get a lower fare.
• No GDS Fee Airlines offer lower fares through
  NDC because they do not have to pay a fee to the
  GDS to lodge their fares.
• Direct Connection Between Seller And Airline It
  is easier for sellers and Airlines can more
  easily discuss enhancements, richer content, or
  additions such as Seats because they have a
  direct conversation. The Seller can provide a
  better experience for the Business Traveller,
  similar to booking directly through the airline's
  website, while the business retains all of the
  benefits of using a TMC (Travel Management
  Company).

NDC is the future of Airline Distribution 

• NDC is an XML-based data transmission standard
  that aims to address many of the current
  distribution channels in the airline industry.
  It's a well-known data protocol that allows
  airlines and travel agencies to exchange
  electronic information. 
• It enables airlines to provide the same rich and
  dynamic content to agencies that they do on their
  website (including ancillaries). It allows TMCs
  and corporations to obtain comprehensive fares
  from airline direct connect via GDSs, LCCs, and
  aggregators in the same search.
• FlightsLogic aggregates and maintains airline
  content from GDSs, NDC airlines, and Low-cost
  carriers (LCCs). These air content sources are
  fed into a user-friendly User Interface, where
  Travel Agents can access the content source using
  their credentials.
• The airline reservation system also supports the
  uploading of self-contracted inventories provided
  by the partner flight suppliers of the agency via
  the software. The system also includes a simple
  XML Out functionality that allows travel partners
  to share their inventories with one another.
