At Spotnana, we’re singularly focused on building the travel platform that connects humanity through the world’s best travel experiences.
One way we’re achieving this is by partnering with the world’s top airlines on deep direct integrations that provide travelers with the most comprehensive air travel options at competitive prices with unparalleled user experiences throughout their journey.
Today, I’m excited to announce that we have released a new direct connection with Emirates airline to meet the increasing demand for NDC content in the Middle East and globally. Spotnana is a catalyst for innovation in the travel industry, and our deep integration supports full servicing capabilities, including self-service exchanges and cancellations.
Access to more global content
Emirates is the world’s largest international airline. Through its global operations, Emirates connects travelers worldwide to over 140 destinations, including its international hub in Dubai.
Through our partnership with Emirates, Spotnana’s Travel-as-a-Service (TaaS) platform now supports full access to Emirates content.
Travelers can access exclusive NDC booking classes in Emirates’ Business and Economy cabins. In addition to that, travelers can enjoy dedicated promotional fares that aren’t available via EDIFACT. Travelers can enjoy surcharge-free access to differentiated ticket pricing and fare rules, early access to promotions, exclusive access to select ancillary services, such as adding extra luggage, and faster access to new ancillary products.
Self-service changes
Spotnana is bringing the most advanced self-service capabilities to travelers around the world.
We’re committed to powering true innovation in partnership with the world’s largest airlines, and I’m proud to share that Spotnana now delivers self-service flight changes via Emirates NDC.
Our deep direct integration to Emirates’ NDC API also supports self-service cancellations with automated refunds, which are not available through traditional booking channels, the ability to hold a ticket, and the ability to make self-service changes post-booking.
Agents using Spotnana also have access to the same NDC content and capabilities, resulting in seamless global service delivery and rapid resolution of traveler inquiries.
Innovation around NDC and beyond
We’re thrilled to be a trusted Emirates innovation partner, and it’s been a joy to work with their engineering team to deliver the deepest direct integration to their NDC API created to date. We look forward to powering ongoing innovation around NDC and beyond with Emirates.
Our integration with Emirates was completed in just a few short weeks. Not only did Spotnana develop the deepest direct NDC integration with one of the world’s largest airlines, but we did so extraordinarily fast.
This is the power of modern infrastructure. By harnessing the latest cloud-based technology, we can innovate at unprecedented speed. Our Travel-as-a-Service platform grows stronger each month, enabling us to connect more people worldwide through a new generation of seamless, global travel experiences.
