A sleek logo for Travelport is set against a coral-pink background. The design features a bold black icon on the left resembling the letter "T" within a circle, symbolizing direction and connectivity. The word "TRAVELPORT" appears to the right in a modern, sans-serif black font, exuding professionalism and innovation in the travel technology industry.

Travelport and Cathay Pacific, the Hong Kong-based airline, announced they have renewed their multisource content distribution agreement. The companies are currently collaborating on the integration of Cathay Pacific’s New Distribution Capability (NDC) content in Travelport+, which is expected to launch in the coming months.

Travelport and Cathay Pacific, said the announcement, are extending their relationship to ensure that travel agencies using Travelport+ have simplified access to multisource content from the airline. With the progressive rollout of the carrier’s NDC content and servicing capabilities in Travelport+, said the announcement, agents will be able to easily shop and compare the airline’s NDC and non-NDC offers in one view.

Kinto Chan, general manager, sales and distribution at Cathay Pacific, said that with the conclusion of the agreement, “we look forward to taking this productive relationship to the next level, enabling our business partners access to an even more comprehensive range of Cathay products in Travelport+ with unique NDC-sourced offers which they can use to curate products that best answer to their customers’ individual needs.”

Damian Hickey, global head of air partners at Travelport, said that “with continued access to Cathay Pacific’s dynamic fares in Travelport+ and the addition of NDC content, agents will be able to effortlessly view, compare and select the best options that are tailored to their customers’ needs.”
