LOT NDC active through Travelport GDS
Polish airline LOT and technology company Travelport have successfully completed the integration of NDC (New Distribution Capability) content. Four months after the initial announcement, the Polish airline’s content has officially gone live in Travelport Plus, opening a new sales channel for agencies around the world.
This integration immediately encompasses markets in 63 countries. The geographical reach is exceptionally wide, covering key regions in Europe, North America, Africa, Asia, Australia, and the Middle East. For the agency sector, this means instant access to personalised tariffs and additional services from the Polish carrier. Furthermore, it is a clear signal of the continued global dominance of the NDC standard in the distribution of airline tickets.
Expanding reach to 63 global markets
Unlike testing phases often limited to domestic or regional markets, LOT and Travelport opted for an ambitious launch. Access from day one in more than sixty countries demonstrates the technical readiness of the Travelport Plus platform to process complex NDC queries globally in real time.
This move is particularly important for corporate travel agencies (TMC), given that LOT holds strong positions on routes connecting Central and Eastern Europe with the rest of the world. Travelport note that this is just the first phase. The list of supported markets will be further expanded in the coming periods.
