Agoda Strengthens Flights Offering with Amadeus Partnership in Asia Pacific
Under
the collaboration, Agoda will leverage the Amadeus Travel Platform, to provide
travelers with the access and ability to book customized content from Amadeus'
extensive network of partner airlines. The move will further enhance Agoda's
increasingly popular flight solution alongside accommodations, activities and
ground transport. This reinforces Agoda's commitment to provide its customers
with convenient access and wide choice of flights at low prices when booking
their trip on the app or website as part of a connected experience. As a
leading technology company in the travel sector, the partnership also ensures
that Agoda continues to deploy world-class technology in order to give its
customers an excellent experience as well as ensure that they always get great
value when using its services.
"In
recent years, we've invested significant resources into building our Flights
value proposition for both customers and airlines," said Andrew Smith,
Senior Vice President, Supply at Agoda. "Our partnership with Amadeus, one
of the most advanced travel technology platforms, is a key milestone in that
effort. By integrating Amadeus' extensive airline content, we're creating even
greater value for our customers and our partners, reinforcing Agoda's position
as one of the leading choices for travel in the Asia Pacific region.
Our vision is to provide a connected trip experience where customers can
seamlessly book flights, hotels, and activities all on one platform."
Tristan
Nielson, Vice President of Online Sales at Amadeus, also commented on the
partnership, "Agoda is a prominent digital travel platform in the Asia
Pacific market, and our collaboration will continue to bolster our
presence in the region. Agoda customers will gain access to a broad array of
airline content, enabling them to craft the tailored experiences they expect
all in one location. We're excited to expand our work with an innovative
partner like Agoda in Thailand and beyond."
The
partnership stands as a testament to Agoda's commitment to further growing its
presence in the air travel ecosystem as well as reinforcing its position as the
preferred travel marketplace in Asia Pacific.
As
part of Booking Holdings, Agoda's new alliance with Amadeus will be
incorporated into Booking Holdings' existing relationship with Amadeus,
ensuring smooth integration and a better customer experience.
