NDC’S SLOW LIFT-OFF ACROSS AFRICA
Corporate Travel professionals are invited to join us as we discuss key corporate travel trends, challenges and opportunities.
Date: 8 August 2024
09.30 – 11.30
Venue: Online
EVENT OVERVIEW
NDC has had a successful up-take in many markets globally, with TMC’s, Buyers and Airlines finding solutions to work together in order to tap into enhanced travel options.
However, South Africa and the broader African continent have been slow to embrace NDC and what it is able to offer.
Join us for this all-important webinar as travel experts discuss:
- The ‘re-brand’ of NDC into MAR (Modern Airline Retailing)
- The progress and success of NDC in other markets
- The reticence of the African market to embrace NDC
- Understanding unique African challenges and potential solutions
- What ‘working together’ as Airlines, TMC’s and Buyers looks like
