Amadeus has signed a long-term full content agreement with Vistara. Amadeus-connected travel agencies now have access to Vistara’s full range of air content.
Vistara previously announced in October that it is the first airline in India to adopt the Amadeus Altéa Suite, giving Amadeus travel agents additional, unique advantages. Both the airline and travel agent share a single reservation number and the same view of the passenger name record (PNR), including any updates throughout the journey.
“Vistara is pleased to have Amadeus on board as our distribution partner. Vistara customers can now choose to avail our unique value propositions across various platforms, be it via the web, mobile, customer service center or through Amadeus’ strong network of agents and booking services,” Phee Teik Yeoh, CEO, Vistara, said.
Rakesh Bansal, CEO, Amadeus India added, “We were excited to welcome Vistara as an Amadeus Altéa partner. Now we are pleased to expand the partnership to provide Amadeus-connected travel agencies with access to Vistara’s full content of schedules, fares and availability. We look forward to working with Vistara as they launch a new chapter in Indian aviation.”
Amadeus plays a critical role in the distribution space with 40.4 per cent market share globally of travel agency air bookings.
