DRCT, a technology provider holding an IATA NDC aggregator certification standard (Level 4)\u2014a standard required for travel companies aiming to offer optimal travel services to their clients\u2014has implemented a distribution platform in partnership with Accent Travel & Events, bringing airlines together into a single ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
NDC is the latest technology in the aviation industry launched by IATA to develop a new standard for transmitting data regarding sold airline tickets and all information related to fares, included services, validity, etc., from airlines to travel agencies for their clients, whether business or leisure travelers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We look forward to collaborating with Accent Travel & Events in Romania and the Republic of Moldova. Together, we aim to bring NDC closer to agencies, providing access to all available fares and benefiting from new revenue growth opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DRCT allows all travel agencies\u2014whether traditional, Online Travel Agencies (OTA), Travel Management Companies (TMC) specialized in business travel, or Metasearch engines\u2014to access all ticket information offered by airlines via NDC, directly from the GDS (Global Distribution Systems).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
NDC content comes from airlines such as Lufthansa Group, British Airways, Air France\/KLM, Ukraine International Airlines, Aegean Group, and many others. Access is provided through software integrated directly into the browser, which uses artificial intelligence and is designed to facilitate the daily activities of the issuing agent. It is easy to install and intuitive to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DRCT users have access to all routes and fares offered by airlines without paying additional GDS fees, allowing them to save from EUR 15 to EUR 200 per ticket. DRCT is a web-based software integrated into the GDS that facilitates access to all flights and fare types marketed by airlines for all Accent Travel & Events clients and partners, complementing existing content offered through GDS and other low-cost carrier aggregators.<\/p>\n\n\n
