Emirates and Expedia Group have intensified their ongoing partnership by fully integrating Emirates’ New Distribution Capability (NDC) API with Expedia’s range of services. This new connection allows the comprehensive array of Emirates fare products and services to reach Expedia’s broad customer base.

This upgrade aims to give travelers enhanced choices and simplified booking processes through Expedia’s platforms for planning their travels around the globe.

Adnan Kazim stated, “We are thrilled to broaden our relationship with Expedia Group, empowering travelers to customize their booking experience. Our collaboration will secure smooth access to Emirates’ NDC content, enriching booking opportunities for our customers.”

Greg Schulze added, “Expanding our partnership with Emirates represents a crucial advancement in enhancing our customers’ travel experiences. This alliance provides our global users with more personalized options and effortless booking capabilities, enabling them to craft unique journeys.”

The full integration will facilitate the offering of Emirates’ NDC fares, services, and additional functionalities, such as extra baggage and seat selection, creating more flexibility in travelers’ bookings.

Moreover, Emirates and Expedia plan to deepen their cooperation on loyalty programs, enhancing travel incentives for both corporations’ clientele. They will leverage market insights to push growth and shape joint marketing efforts.

Furthermore, their partnership will emphasize the development of complete booking experiences by capitalizing on Expedia’s extensive hotel inventory. Travelers will be able to pair their Emirates flights with hotel stays from thousands listed on Expedia’s services. This initiative aims to attract and connect with travelers globally.
