Amadeus has received the level 3 New Distribution Capability (NDC) certification as an aggregator from Iata. Level 3 is the highest NDC certification.
This certification means that Amadeus is able to consume NDC offers from airlines and distribute them to travel agents.
Amadeus has an existing level 3 NDC certification as an IT provider and is the first GDS company operating in the SA market to receive dual level 3 certification.
“We’re making great progress on our mission to enable our airline customers to make their new NDC content available to our global travel sellers network – at scale,” said Gianni Pisanello, vp, NDC-X program, Amadeus.
“By achieving NDC Level 3 certification as an aggregator, Amadeus is demonstrating its commitment to driving the industrialisation of NDC, supporting a new era of airline retailing that will deliver a better shopping experience,” said Yanik Hoyles, director, New Distribution Capability Program, Iata.
