Brussels Airlines signs full content agreement with Travelport

TRAVELPORT and Brussels Airlines have announced a global, full content agreement for Galileo and Worldspan-connected users worldwide.

The new deal, which takes immediate effect, will provide all connected agents with access to the full fares and inventory of Belgium’s national carrier including its online fares.  Brussels Airlines, a Star Alliance member, operates more than 300 scheduled flights daily to more than 70 global destinations, including 20 destinations on the African continent. 

Earlier in the year, Brussels Airlines also implemented Travelport’s ETAT ticketing in various African countries.  Travelport ETAT ticketing is a solution designed to offer a practical and effective way for travel agents to provide e-tickets in countries where there is no standard ticketing process (e.g. BSP).  It also lowers distribution costs for airlines in these countries.
