"Goodbye PSS. Hello Offer & Order!" With these words, FLYR announced the launch of their Offer and Order Management System (OMS). I've read their press release between the lines:   👉 "Airlines now have the power to deliver a modern digital retailing experience" => Threedot's June report 👇 listed 9 vendors mentioning OMS, highlighting that FLYR had no dedicated product at that time. However Amadeus announced Nevio in October 2023 and Sabre Corporation followed with Mosaic in August 2024 👨✈️ 👉 "Travelers have the flexibility to explore and access the products that matter to them, with personalization that makes them feel cared about" => The original goal in designing NDC was to enhance customer experience. The idea was to make shopping, ordering and changing a flight as easy as any digital retail experience 🕺 👉 "Airlines have been stuck with outdated, fragmented systems that are costly to maintain" => ONE Order is specifically focused on reducing fragmentation and costs by combining PNR, ET and EMD into… one Order. This consolidation removes the need to sync multiple legacy systems 😮 👉 "Cutting down the launch time of new products like fare families, security fast track and a la carte add-ons, from months to minutes" => Speed of innovation is a key driver for airlines' move to digital retailing, beyond just cost reduction 🤗 👉 "Legacy Translator: Enables backward compatibility with systems": FLYR can easily say goodbye to PSS as they don't run one today. However, they need to ensure a smooth transition from airlines' old PSS to their OMS, with tools like a translator. Over time, new services will be OMS-native 🤞 See link to the Phocuswire article in the comments 👇   It's worth remembering that the concepts of "Offer" and "Order" were defined as elements of an airline's new distribution capability in the IATA standard (Resolution 787) published in 2012 😎 #airlineNDC #digitalretailing #OrderManagement

How can airlines build better schedules faster? Zulu delivers automation, intelligence and, especially, user experience. To further improve user experience, one of Zulu's latest features is drag-retime. Drag-retime enables users to more quickly update flight times--one of the most common edits when building and updating schedules. #airlinescheduling #schedulingsystems #networkplanning

My View: Comparing IATA NDC Schema 17.2 vs. 21.3 With the travel industry rapidly evolving, selecting the right NDC schema is essential for optimizing operations and delivering a better customer experience. As you consider migration, be sure to evaluate key factors such as available tools, interoperability, and how well the schema fits your business needs. #IATANDC #AviationTech #TravelInnovation #VersionComparison #retail #NDC #airlineretaining #API #integration

Streamline your workflow & avoid unnecessary expenses- agencies spend valuable time on repetitive tasks like PNR checks and cancellations, which not only reduce customer service efficiency but can also lead to costly errors and ADMS from airlines.

Navigating the Challenges of NDC Integration: How FareIntelligence Can Help. Many airlines face ongoing challenges with their NDC providers—whether it's due to incomplete API implementations, inconsistent data flow, or limited flexibility in customization. These issues can significantly impact the efficiency of distribution and the delivery of personalized services to customers. At FareIntelligence, we understand these pain points and offer a solution: Comprehensive end-to-end regression testing. By validating every aspect of your NDC setup, we ensure that the entire process—from offer generation to order management—is robust and functional. Additionally, we help airlines by writing detailed use cases tailored to their specific operational needs, allowing them to foresee potential issues and streamline their NDC operations. Here are some examples of complex use cases we’ve handled: 1. Cross-system compatibility testing: Ensuring that NDC bookings made via the airline's website are seamlessly integrated with legacy GDS systems for corporate and agency bookings, maintaining consistency across all platforms. 2. Dynamic pricing optimization: Testing real-time dynamic pricing capabilities to ensure accurate and timely offers are presented across various distribution channels, avoiding discrepancies in fare offerings. 3. Ancillary product integration: Verifying the smooth addition of ancillary services (such as seat selection, extra baggage, or lounge access) during the post-booking phase across different channels, with consistent pricing and availability. 4. Multi-country fare rules management: Ensuring that fare rules, restrictions, and promotions for multiple markets are consistently applied across NDC and non-NDC platforms, preventing pricing or policy conflicts. Our goal is to ensure that airlines can confidently move forward with their NDC strategies, providing a seamless experience for their customers while minimizing distribution challenges.
