CWT and Amadeus expand collaboration on technology innovation and NDC

CWT has become an early adopter and active member of the Amadeus NDC(X) programme. CWT is using Amadeus’ new distribution capability (NDC) enabled travel API (application programming interface) to test processing NDC content through their internal systems.

CWT will deploy the NDC-enabled Amadeus Selling Platform Connect desktop solution to consume NDC content alongside existing travel options. The deployment of NDC ready solutions will enhance the travel experience and contribute to CWT’s B2B4E (business to business for employees) strategic approach.

“Critical role”

In addition, to continue fueling its global growth, CWT has increased deployment of the Amadeus cytric travel  solution to more markets, enabling CWT to provide customization options that ensure all bookings are within corporate and local travel policy, while also facilitating coordinated approvals.

Ilia Kostov, senior vice president of global travel management companies (TMCs) and Americas business travel agencies at Amadeus said: “We share CWT’s passion for creating a positive travel experience and we believe technology is the key enabler.”

“Our customers trust us to ensure that their travellers have the best possible experience, and technology plays a critical role in delivering on that promise,” said Vince Chirico, senior vice president of global network and technology partners at CWT.
