Australia-based startup Aeronology has partnered with Lufthansa Group to provide its travel advisor customers access to the aviation group’s NDC offers. Through a multi-channel booking engine portal, Aeronology’s customer base of retailers, corporates, universities and wholesalers can book NDC offers with automatic reissue and refund options from Australia Airlines, Brussels Airlines, Lufthansa, SWISS, Air Dolomiti and Eurowings.
The Lufthansa Group content, available via the NDC-enabled interface, includes continuous pricing as well as a wide range of ancillary services.
Founded in 2019, Aeronology is a full-service point-of-sale travel booking platform. Its cloud-based technology connects air, land, river and sea suppliers to its customers via APIs, NDC, GDS and LLCs.
“Aeronology remains fully committed to shaping the airlines distribution and revolutionizing air travel experiences and content for our customers. Getting Lufthansa Group airlines NDC offers into the hands of travel businesses is of utmost importance for Aeronology. The airlines of the Lufthansa Group have been the original movers of NDC globally. We are proud of our association with this amazing airline group,” says Aeronology CEO Russell Carstensen.
“NDC distribution channels are growing, they are building to scale and usability and servicing are becoming much easier to manage. The days of going to different airline websites to access the best and most attractive offer are ending, with the type of technology Aeronology has created.”
Last month, Lufthansa Group signed a deal with Amadeus to offer its NDC-sourced content through the global distribution system’s NDC-enabled interfaces.
