ACTA is hosting two webinars – one with Air Canada and one with Amadeus – to help travel advisors understand the New Distribution Technology (NDC) which Air Canada is making available effective 15JUN.
“We find there is significant confusion about NDC capability and impacts,” said Wendy Paradis, ACTA president. “ACTA will be having a number of webinars over the next several months with our airline and GDS partners to help increase knowledge and clear up any confusion.“
The first of these webinars will take place in JUN. Travel agencies and advisors are welcome to join ACTA’s NDC English and French webinars on 19JUN, 2023 presented by Air Canada. A second NDC webinar is scheduled with Amadeus on 28JUN, 2023.
Non- ACTA members are asked to consider joining ACTA, or to make a donation to the ACTA Advocacy Fund.
The two seminars are:
19JUN: Air Canada: An Introduction to NDC - New Distribution Capabilities
