Thursday, December 21, 2023

Airlines Reporting Corp. is quite happy to declare about the completion of New Distribution Capability (NDC) integration of Air Canada with the ARC Direct Connect program. This joint venture will help Air Canada to provide richer content and comprehensive information with the help of its booking platforms for travel agencies and corporate travel buyers while offering a reliable settlement experience through the trusted platform of ARC.

This combination is critical to their NDC journey, helping them us to grow their NDC program benefits and structures to their joint agency system and customers in the U.S. market, said the vice president of global sales and Air Canada Vacations, Lisa Pierce. Lisa also added that ARC-accredited agencies at present have numerous options to access the complete range of content and services of Air Canada, joining to their NDC platform directly via expert aggregator or a GDS. This provides the full suite of competences and payment options to service their mutual customers in the preferred channel.

They’re excited to greet Air Canada to the ARC Direct Connect program and assist them change how they communicate with travel agencies and travel managers, said Paige Blunt, senior manager of Direct Connect.
