Amadeus unveils new fight search solution
Amadeus is to preview a new search solution intended to improve the way flight options are presented to travellers online.
The patent-pending Amadeus Featured Results solution will be presented at PhoCusWright’s Travel Innovation Summit in Arizona this week. Online travel agency Vayama is the first pilot customer to implement the solution in its beta form, and the solution is expected to be delivered to market in early 2013.
According to Amadeus, the new Amadeus Featured Results platform makes online travel searches “simpler and more relevant”. It has combined flight search technology and travel business intelligence data to deliver what the company calls “a more relevant set of search results” to the top of the display screen.
“Amadeus’ vision is to place the traveller in the driver’s seat and to create the ultimate search, shop and buy experience. And our travel industry customers and the travellers they serve remain the main drivers of our priorities, guiding us on how to best complement our portfolio and evolve our technology,” said Holger Taubmann, Amadeus’ Senior Vice President of Distribution.
Amadeus Featured Results will form part of the Amadeus Search Portfolio which includes a range of solutions for shopping and booking.
