Aeromexico has signed a new global full content
agreement with Travelport.
The new multi-year deal secures full
access to all of Aeromexico’s published fares and seat inventory –
including fares available on its website, and through its
reservation offices and third parties – for all
Travelport-connected travel agents and subscribers globally,
including all offline travel agencies and online agencies booking
through Travelport.
The new agreement also includes a common
framework to provide enhanced Aeromexico functionality to
Travelport’s travel agents, such as the addition of merchandising
services, providing Aeromexico with the ability to sell ancillary services through Travelport point of sale platforms.
Aeromexico will also subscribe to Travelport Sponsored Flights
Advertising, an advertising tool which enables carriers to place
flights in a separate area above the neutral display on the travel
agent’s availability results screen for optimum visibility. This solution can promote new destinations or expanded
service on existing routes, market reduced or promotional fares
and offer alternative airport choices.
Aeromexico will also
utilize Travelport Galaxy, a flexible, cost-effective and
reliable data processing service, used by some of the world’s
leading airlines, travel agencies and travel-related companies.
Galaxy processes and consolidates data from all major global
distribution systems (GDSs) by assembling, cleansing, validating,
netting and applying the origin-destination trip-build rules to
turn the raw data (e.g., MIDT, ATCN, Revenue) into more manageable
data elements.
“Travelport is an important commercial partner for Aeromexico
and we're delighted that we've reached a global agreement for our
agents, which provides them with access to all of our published
fares and inventory,” said Sergio Allard, Aeromexico Chief
Commercial Officer. “Being part of Travelport’s extensive network
is a critical part of our distribution strategy to ensure our
flights are available to travel agents everywhere. Travelport’s
breadth, technology and merchandising capabilities will ensure we
continue to have a very successful relationship for years to
come.”
