American Airlines<\/a> announced in February 2024 that it would require travel agencies and online booking tools to connect directly to their NDC<\/span><\/b> channel or lose access to up to 50% of fares with travellers no longer receiving Advantage points on bookings. Many in the industry scrambled to meet AA\u2019s target with constant cries of not being \u201cNDC-ready.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Gray Dawes has been presenting clients with NDC content for almost six years, and it was no surprise that we smashed American Airlines’ target of 30% for bookings made directly on their NDC channel in the US. In fact, we achieved nearly 45% by the airline\u2019s May deadline!<\/strong><\/p>\n

NDC was developed by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) <\/a>back in October 2012, revolutionising the way in which air travel content was distributed and purchased. Gray Dawes were one of the early adopters of the standard. It allows us to put our customers at the very centre of the travel experience and saves them from the hassle of trawling through innumerable sources to find the air products they are looking for.<\/p>\n

The numbers speak for themselves –\u00a0 82% of fares are on routes flown by NDC airlines, and a third of what we sell is cheaper than a traditional TMC.<\/p>\n
