Brussels Airlines Signs Full Content Agreement with Travelport

Brussels Airlines has signed a global, full content agreement with Travelport.

The new deal, which takes immediate effect, will provide all Galileo and Worldspan-connected agents with access to the full fares and inventory of Belgium’s national carrier including its online fares. Brussels Airlines, a Star Alliance member, operates more than 300 scheduled flights daily to more than 70 global destinations.

Mr. Rudy Maex, VP Channel Development & Service Delivery, Brussels Airlines said, “The extensive network that Travelport offers through its Galileo and Worldspan platforms, and particularly their footprint in Africa where they are the GDS of choice, gives us exceptional access to the travel industry and is an important part of our overall distribution strategy.”

Earlier in the year, Brussels Airlines also implemented Travelport’s ETAT ticketing in various African countries.

Travelport ETAT ticketing is a solution designed to offer a practical and effective way for travel agents to provide e-tickets in countries where there is no standard ticketing process (e.g. BSP). It also lowers distribution costs for airlines in these countries.
