TUIfly connects with Travelport

Travelport has signed a new, long-term, airline IT services agreement with TUIfly, the third largest airline in Germany. The e-Ticketing technology is utilized by TUIfly Vermarktungs GmbH (TUIfly.com), the flight travel portal of TUI Deutschland. TUIfly.com has implemented Travelport E-Ticket Technologies in combination with their reservation system, New Skies, offered by Navitaire LLC, enabling the airline to fully leverage the benefits of outbound interline e-ticketing. The new deal is part of a TUIfly.com initiative to broaden the worldwide flight offer for customers and combinability of different airlines through new airline partnerships. With this technology TUIfly.com is furthermore able to distribute, process and fulfill flights of traditional network carriers using e-tickets not only on the B2C web site TUIfly.com but in non-IATA touristic distribution channels as well.
