Kenya Airways has started deploying its NDC content to travel sellers in Kenya, South Africa and the UK, via the Amadeus Travel Platform.
Amadeus announced on April 7 that Kenya Airways was the first sub-Saharan airline to distribute NDC content through its platform.
This means South Africa’s Amadeus users in retail travel are the first to gain access to NDC content from the airline, which, according to Amadeus will allow faster and smoother implementation of the airline's NDC offers.
“Amadeus has been at the forefront of driving NDC adoption across the global travel ecosystem and was therefore the natural choice for this step on our distribution journey,” said Julius Thairu, Chief Commercial and Customer Officer of Kenya Airways.
When it is fully implemented, travel sellers worldwide will have access to the entire Kenya Airways NDC content offering.
