Bring your NDC and low-cost content via AirGateway to Optigest
AirGateway is pleased to announce that Optigest, a leading travel technology provider based in Portugal, has successfully completed the certification and integration of AirGateway NDC and low-cost aggregation platform into its booking platform.
This new integration enables Optigest-connected travel agencies to access NDC content from over 35 airlines, including key global and regional carriers, seamlessly from within their existing workflows. The platform is now also fully certified to support end-to-end downstream integration, meaning that all bookings made via AirGateway NDC content appear automatically within the Optigest back-office system, preserving efficiency and reducing manual workload for agencies.
This integration represents a natural evolution for the future of travel. The ability to access NDC content provided by AirGateway directly through our technology, removes one of the main barriers tourism professionals face in transitioning to the new industry standard. This integration puts tourism professionals connected to Optigest technology in a privileged position in the market. While many competitors are still struggling with complex and disruptive NDC implementations, our customers can immediately benefit from this technology in a transparent and efficient manner. We see this integration not only as a technical improvement, but as a strategic investment in the future of our clients. As more airlines migrate to NDC and travellers demand more personalized experiences, this solution ensures that our clients are prepared to thrive in this new paradigm. Our conviction is clear: this integration not only keeps pace with industry developments, but also places our clients at the forefront of technological innovation in the travel sector.
said Filipe Machado, Sales & Marketing Director at Optigest.
We’re thrilled to partner with Optigest to make NDC and low-cost content seamlessly accessible for agencies in Portugal and beyond — all within their existing workflows. This integration reinforces our commitment to helping agencies adopt NDC without disrupting their established booking and back-office processes.
Jorge Díaz, CEO at AirGateway added.
Through this collaboration, Optigest clients can enjoy the full benefits of modern airline distribution — including access to private and special fares, ancillaries, and servicing capabilities — without incurring GDS-related surcharges, and while maintaining a familiar and unified workflow.
With this milestone, both companies reaffirm their commitment to providing travel agencies with modern, flexible, and future-proof technology that supports the growing importance of NDC in global air distribution.
