Thanks a lot for the quality information. I sincerely admire your efforts to simplify & educate
As a tech enthusiast and avid traveler, this was very informative! Both from a consumer and business standpoint. Disruptive technology in any industry takes time to adopt by all stakeholders. As eluded to at the end of the video, the change to NDC is inevitable. It's promising to see the airline travel industry shifting and soon reach the tipping point of majority adoption!
Brilliant work, guys!
Thank you! We hope you're joining us for our next explainers😉
Very informative! Thank you for simplifying complicated topics.

Thank you
Thank you so much for the video
Most airlines have not fine tuned NDC...lot of limitations in it ..specially when it comes schedule changing ..
Different airlines have different NDC platforms for us travel agents to learn all these n to keep the passwords in mind is tough.
Airlines still use gds based system staff doesn't know about ndc as they are not using.when travel agents calls for help they refer us to their help portals.
To tell the truth we travel agents just doesn't have time to go to this extent as clients need fast answers.
The only issue I have is that is OTA have no say in commissions they get by selling airline tickets and deals then why should they adopt NDC and move away from years of work they have done with GDS. They have a working model in place and change is always disruptive. Where is the compelling reason to move? There seems to be a lot of things not to like for an OTA moving to NDC even so the eventuality of moving to that standard is obvious. Till then API driven GDS model trumps NDC..
I love it😉
But XML is not flexible.
Edifict now will have a sunset phase , its old doesn’t have rich content and is not digital .. Way to go NDC !!
Lots of incorrect information about edifact here.
Can you specify? you can't just say information is incorrect and not elaborate
