Mauritania Airlines is to distribute its content
through Travelport.
Established in December 2010, Mauritania
Airlines International is Mauritania’s flag carrier, based at
Nouakchott International Airport. The airline operates short and
medium-haul flights, connecting the Mauritanian airports with
other West-African nations.
The multi- year agreement means that 68,000
Travelport-connected travel agency locations will have access to
all of Mauritania Airlines International’s fares.
The fares can
now be searched, sold and booked via Travelport’s
point of sale desktop solution, Travelport Smartpoint, which
features an intuitive graphical user interface and performance
enhancements.
In addition, the airline’s content will be available
through Travelport’s Universal API (uAPI) to other travel players,
such as online travel agencies.
Mr Ahmedou Ahmedou, Mauritania
Airlines International, said, “The agreement with Travelport
is part of our company’s strategy to expand our reach through the
indirect channel, and is aligned with our key objective to improve
the airline’s profile through the modernisation of our fleet and
operations. Travelport’s technology is in high demand and we are
pleased to leverage Travelport’s wide reach of 68,000 travel
agency locations worldwide as to optimise our distribution channel
and explore new markets.”
