Travelport First To Cut Deal with BA

Far from its one time part owner Travelport (Galileo and Worldspan) has now concluded a deal with BA.

The deal extends the current opt in/opt out arrangement for significantly less than the regular Legacy GDS segment fee.

It should be noted that in the UK Home market - the moving of content out of GDSs by BA has been under way for some time with the Lime Management.

We can expect to see more content moved out of the legacy GDSs to systems such as Lime over time.

FYI The Agency pays for the Lime service a rather hefty ticketing fee.

Cheers
