The International Airlines Group, parent of British Airways, Iberia and Are Lingus, have reached a deal to give Amadeus-connected agents and corporate access to MDC content later this year.<\/p>\n<p>Given the following and response both these announced received in the press and on social media, it seems the industry is still obsessed with NDC.<\/p>\n<p>So, in this podcast, our panel discusses and answers some of the highly charged questions that came up. We discuss how the downturn in business travel, caused by the pandemic, has slashed money flows in the system, giving an opportunity to rethink how that money moves around the industry. TMCs in particular are desperate to avoid becoming commercialised and need to be able to generate more revenue per trip. It seems every player in the supply chain is going to be paid for the value they provide.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.2&#8243;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;blurb&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.8.2&#8243; min_height=&#8221;172px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>But what is NDC content? It can be anything from an extra bag to even providing a mariachi band to play out as you board the plane, if that&#8217;s what you want. The problem is control and the airlines have challenges providing that level of control between hubs and different members of their airline alliances. NDC promises a new retailing world, but who is the retailer?<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Spotify embed&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.8.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed-podcast\/episode\/1qGstIlOdgblr6KR01Wpby\" width=\"100%\" height=\"232\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;blurb&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.8.2&#8243; min_height=&#8221;137px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Click on the button above to listen to the episode now. <em>BTN Europe Week in Review<\/em> is also available through several popular podcast services including Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify and Audible.
