Travelport GDS has signed a new, multi-year full
content agreement with Greek carrier, Aegean Airlines.
Under the new agreement, the airline will
provide all Travelport GDS-connected travel agents around the
world with its full, published inventory, including its former web
only fares.
Robin Ranken, Business Development Director for
Travelport GDS, said, “Aegean Airlines has grown
exponentially over the last few years and is the largest airline
in Greece in terms of passenger volume. We are delighted to have
secured this full content agreement with them and be the first GDS
to offer their web only fares to our travel agency customers.”
Aegean Airlines operates 47 domestic and international routes
with more than 200 daily flights. It uses brand new Airbus A320s
and A321s and by May 2009, its scheduled fleet will have an
average age of only two years.
Mr. Dimitris Gerogiannis,
Managing Director of Aegean Airlines, said, “As a result of this
new commercial agreement, Travelport will be distributing our full
range of content through their very extensive worldwide network of
travel agency customers, including the fares we previously only
made available on our own website. We believe the extent of their
global footprint will really help us to achieve our ambitious
growth plans in the months and years ahead.”
