Arrangement will allow agents and other travel buyers to see all air product content on a single screen

Lufthansa Group Airlines has extended direct connect with TPConnects, the first travel aggregator and Internet booking engine certified for International Air Transport Association (IATA) New Distribution Capability. NDC is an industry program launched by IATA that will transform the way air products are retailed to corporations and business travelers. Travel agents using TPConnects solutions would have access to the airline’s real-time fares; product portfolio, including ancillaries; rich media; and promotional fares, thus saving distribution cost charges for customers. Rajendran Vellapalath, CEO of TPConnects, said the arrangement means that instead of toggling between platforms, travel buyers will be able to see on a single screen all of the content available across all products. In addition, he said, agents can receive personalized offers from the carriers for their customers based on travel histories and preferences.
