Retailaer, an airline retailing and distribution platform, has announced the first phase of its integration with Air Europa, providing travel agents worldwide with a seamless shopping and servicing experience that integrates flights, ancillaries, and third-party services in Retailaer’s comprehensive Offer and Order Management System. This initial launch in Spain, with a selected number of partners, is part of Air Europa’s plans for a global rollout later in the year.
The partnership aims to set a new standard in the airline industry, demonstrating how modern technologies can deliver a more responsive and personalised experience for travel agents booking with airlines. As part of this collaboration with Air Europa, Retailaer’s open and modular approach supports other retail technology partners.
“We are very pleased to have Retailaer’s platform in place to connect with our content to further extend our NDC journey, and the relationship with our partners around the world,” said Yago Casasnovas, Head of Payments, Fraud Prevention and Distribution, Air Europa. “This is a further step in line with the targets we have set in helping the user to decide how they want to access our content, which is reflected in our campaign slogan ‘You decide’. The possibility of accessing our content via our Travel Agency portal, NDC or GDS makes shopping with Air Europa easier than ever.”
Anders Lofgren, Co-founder and CEO, Retailaer, added: “We are proud to support Air Europa in building a more efficient, relevant, and connected retail experience for the travel trade. Air Europa’s adoption of the Connect platform demonstrates how airlines can unlock new value for its agency network without being constrained by legacy infrastructure. At Retailaer, we believe the future of airline retailing lies in adaptability, agility, speed to market and true partner enablement.”
