New Delhi, India October 15, 2024: Yatra Online Limited, India’s largest corporate travel services provider and leading online travel company, has become the country’s first Travel Management Company (TMC) to integrate New Distribution Capability (NDC), a breakthrough technology developed by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) via Self Booking Tool. This milestone transforms how businesses book air travel, delivering richer content, greater transparency, and enhanced flexibility.

NDC, developed by IATA, modernizes airline distribution by giving travel agents and intermediaries access to richer content, including tailored offers, dynamic pricing, and real-time seat availability. With Yatra’s integration of NDC, corporate travelers benefit from a seamless & transparent booking experience with a broader range of fare options, lowest price availability, better cost-efficiency, and smarter decision-making. Yatra’s Self Booking tool integrates this rich NDC content—adding clarity to flight choices, while personalized offers enable a more tailored booking experience. Direct airline connections streamline the process, enabling easy integration with Yatra’s systems and simplifying corporate travel planning.

 “We are proud to be the first Travel Management Company in India to integrate NDC for corporate travel. This advancement aligns with our mission to offer cutting-edge solutions that transform the travel experience for our corporate clients.  By offering NDC content, we can provide richer content, greater fare transparency, and access to tailored offers, ensuring that our corporate customers get the best value and choice when booking their air travel. This step reinforces Yatra’s commitment to driving innovation in corporate travel management, making air travel more efficient and tailored to business needs.”
