Key capabilities need to be put in place

• Alignment on schedule driven flow • Mid & back office integration

• Servicing• Standard payment flow

Achieve a real standard in practice

• Consistent API interpretation • No proprietary messages

• One implementation guide for all• IATA Level 4 Certification

Scalability and performance need to be achieved

• Universal travel sellers’ identification • Maintain performance - 90% of transaction in less than 4sec• NDC@Scale certification

So there is still some work to do…

Workflows

June 2019

Our goal is to enable anyone

to build an end-to-end travel

booking experience in hours

June 2019

We’ve finished the first step:

an aggregator for airlines’

direct connect APIs

June 2019

With Duffel, you can build one

simple integration and get

access to the world’s top

airlines

June 2019

Our key differentiator is our

focus on developer experience,

making integration radically

simple

June 2019

June 2019

We set ourselves a challenge:

taking away the stress of

disruption and delays

June 2019

Today, disruption means

stressful scrolling and frantic

phone calls

June 2019

Less manual, more magic ✨

June 2019

June 2019

June 2019

June 2019

We decided to take the same

concept and apply it to travel

June 2019

Be smart and stress-free with

personalised, automated

workflows

June 2019

More control and less stress

Great for travellers

June 2019

Meet “duty of care” obligations,

whilst minimising manual work

Great for TMCs and corporate travel

June 2019

With our simple interface, travellers

- or their TMCs - can design their

own workflows

Strategies & RoadmapPart 4 – The CorporateProgramPaul Tilstone, Managing Partner, FESTIVE ROAD

Why?

The objectives of TMAG:

Act as a sounding board for IATA to present updates and new initiative insights which

may affect the corporate market. This will include NDC and related initiatives

To maintain a dialogue with IATA through TMAG on issues affecting corporate travel

programmes (“managed travel pain-points”)

To provide voluntary and non-binding ideas, suggestions and create an end to end

vision to assist the industry in adopting and benefitting from NDC-enabled technologies

within a managed framework.

To act as a communication channel between IATA and other bodies on which

participants are members of (e.g. associations, benchmark groups and committees)
