TPConnects Technologies today announced a major content expansion milestone for Iris, TPConnects’ air content aggregation platform for travel sellers. Iris now provides unified access to 60+ NDC and low-cost carrier (LCC) airlines, alongside integration with all four major GDS providers Amadeus, Sabre, Travelport, and Abacus enabling travel sellers to access, compare, book, and service air content through one consistent workflow. Recent airline integrations include major LCC carriers like easyJet, Volotea, Transavia, Wizz Air thanks to our partnership with Kyte, as well as full-service carriers like Cathay Pacific, Turkish Airlines, Riyadh Air, ITA Airways and others.
Built for the Reality of Hybrid Distribution
As airlines embrace modern retailing through NDC and richer offers, travel sellers are operating in a hybrid distribution environment managing multiple content sources (NDC, LCC and GDS), diverse booking processes, and inconsistent servicing capabilities. While technology providers have made progress, operational complexity remains.
“Travel sellers don’t need more systems they need a unified workflow that keeps pace with modern airline retailing,” said TPConnects Technologies. “With Iris, agencies can access NDC, LCC, and GDS content in one place, operate faster with consistent servicing, and apply commercial strategy with greater control. This milestone strengthens our mission to help travel sellers succeed in a rapidly evolving distribution landscape.”
