NDC

Unlock the power of New Distribution Capability and transform flight shopping forever.

The pipeline for interoperable data in the NDC community

NDC (New Distribution Capability) standards were established by IATA to better enable communications across the airline ecosystem. We deliver airline pricing and retailing content via NDC APIs, connecting all industry members and creating one community.

Connectivity is key

Multiple API versions and standards become technology barriers. ATPCO connects airlines and sellers via the NDC Exchange API to extend your reach to all points of sale while reducing costs.

Content is king

When it comes to data, we’re the industry powerhouse. We're extending our expertise with NDC and are delivering all content through all
NDC and non-NDC channels.

Join the community

The neutral partner at the heart of this community, we use our expertise and capabilities to reduce distribution costs and open new revenue streams for everyone. Innovation comes through industry collaboration—come join us!

Fly at full throttle with NDC Exchange

ATPCO makes it easier for everyone to adopt NDC with the launch of NDC Exchange, the only neutral, industry-owned platform that connects the airline ecosystem and helps accelerate airline retailing.

Real-time data

It’s a cloud-based, infinitely scalable solution with real-time message translation—regardless of API, schema, or version.

Reduced costs

Development and maintenance costs, including labor, hardware, and IT vendor expenses, are substantially reduced.

Speed to market

Products get to market faster when you don’t have to develop and maintain multiple APIs or wait for your tech partners’ release schedule.

 

One-stop shop

Everything is in one place: fares, routes, seats, booking, ticketing, baggage, ancillaries, and now Routehappy Content.

 

NDC Exchange is a cost-effective solution that the industry can leverage. It’s run by partners that we all know and trust. That’s why it’s not only the solution for Air Canada but for the whole industry.

NDC Exchange, in my view, is a single API source that would enable the rapid growth of the API connections across the industry.

By connecting to NDC Exchange, we have access to Air Canada and British Airways, as well as other airlines as they are released. By completing the single connection to NDC Exchange, we are being more efficient with our development resources, letting us focus on customer experience rather than content acquisition. We’re excited about the momentum this is getting and can’t wait for the next airline.

NDC Exchange allows us to scale faster by providing us access to airline content, especially in North America. Having access to Routehappy Content brings additional value and helps us to provide a richer experience for our customers.
Air Canada
ATPCO is providing us with the ability to combine our pricing data with rich content so that all our product offering information is in one place. As an existing Routehappy Content subscriber, NDC Exchange becomes even more valuable to us.
