Travix, a global online travel company selling
flights in more than 28 countries with a global portfolio of 35
websites, recently started offering Amadeus Fare Families on its
websites.
The website brands include CheapTickets
(Singapore, Hong Kong and Thailand), BudgetAir (India, Malaysia,
Philippines, Taiwan, Australia, New Zealand) and Vayama.
“For us, Fare Families are not just a feature we
are adding, this is at the heart of our strategy. An OTA’s role in
the travel ecosystem is to highlight all of the efforts the
airlines are making to improve and personalise the travel
experience, and we are excited to be working with Amadeus to be at
the forefront of this. We believe that Fare Families open new
relationship opportunities with our airlines partners, and this
will benefit our customers,” said John Mangelaars, the CEO of
Travix.
Amadeus is currently distributing Fare Families
for 23 airlines through the GDS, and 12 more are under
implementation.
Sébastien Gibergues, Head of Leisure Online and
Travel Media at Amadeus, said, “Last year, we saw an incredible
growth in the amount of OTAs interested in Fare Families, and
we’re seeing more and more airlines interested in creating and
sharing this kind of content. We think 2016 will be the year where
personalised flight booking becomes mainstream.”
