Amadeus, has signed a partnership with Travel Technology Interactive (TTInteractive), to offer enhanced passenger service & distribution solutions to regional and small international airlines worldwide.
The partnership responds to the need of these airlines for a passenger service solution that is tailored specifically to their needs and resources, and that is quick to implement. The package offered by TTInteractive and Amadeus includes a web-based end-to-end customer management solution, Aeropack, designed by TTInteractive, plus access to Amadeus’ global distribution channel and communication network.
Aeropack, which is currently used by 11 airlines, is specially adapted to suit the specific needs of regional and small international airlines and can be deployed in just one month. It integrates key functionality for them to efficiently manage their passenger services. This includes applications for inventory management, multi-channel reservation, yield and revenue management, departure control, electronic ticketing, code-share and interlining, plus real-time reporting to monitor business operations.
Through Amadeus’ global distribution and communication network, Aeropack customers will gain distribution reach that was previously unavailable to them, in addition to significant cost savings by using Amadeus’ extensive global communication infrastructure for their messaging processes. Their inventory will be marketed through the 75,000 travel agency locations connected to Amadeus, as well as by some of Europe’s leading internet portals, including Opodo. In addition, Amadeus Message Net will provide them with fast and secure connections for their day-to-day communication with the airline community and Amadeus’ best-in-class TCP/IP networks.
Gregoire Echalier, Managing Director of TTInteractive explains, “This partnership with Amadeus will prove a winning formula for airlines seeking a competitive and cost-sensitive turn-key solution that includes electronic ticketing, and can be implemented quickly. Aeropack© customers now have an added advantage through Amadeus’ global reach and cutting edge technology.”
Frederic Spagnou, Vice President of the Airline Business Group at Amadeus points out that: “Small airlines now have access to a competitive solution matching international standards that will allow them to compete better at a global level. This agreement also reflects Amadeus’ ambition to distribute the inventory of every airline in the world, regardless of their size.”
