Worldspan Drops to Just 25 Markets

The decline of Worldspan on the world stage has been fairly sharp over the past few years. As part of the disclosure of the AA vs Travelport battle - I looked at the number of markets where Travelport was going to charge AA the premium fee. AS part of that disclosure we are able to see which markets have which GDS.

Here is the list:

BELGIUM
CANADA
DENMARK
FINLAND
FRANCE
GERMANY
GREAT BRITAIN
GREECE
HONG KONG
HUNGARY
INDIA
IRELAND
ISRAEL
ITALY
LEBANON
MEXICO
NETHERLANDS
NORWAY
PAKISTAN
POLAND
ROMANIA
SAUDI ARABIA
SOUTH KOREA
SWEDEN
SWITZERLAND

While Worldspan was never that large on the International Stage - the number of markets where they were present has dropped by more than 50% in a few years.

Cheers
