Kyte has signed a deal with flight booking technology specialist AirGateway. As a part of the partnership, Air Gateway’s clients can now access easyJet content due to the direct-connection facilitated by Kyte, an approved partner channel of easyJet which streamlines its API integrations.
Kyte and easyJet aim to make direct connections more efficient and less resource intensive for travel partners.
Kyte’s standardised interface is aimed at overcoming many challenges around content and functionality limitations, often associated with poor quality integrations or web-scraping.
AirGateway’s clients are primarily travel management companies (TMCs) who operate in the corporate travel space and therefore strongly prioritise full content coverage, operational efficiency, and reliability.
Now, AirGateway’s users will be able to access and book the full range of easyJet fares and bundles, including seats and other products and services, without having to worry about data inconsistency or outages.
Commenting on the partnership, Alice Ferrari, chief executive and co-founder, Kyte said: “The industry is gradually transitioning to API distribution. However, for the transition to be successful the quality of the content and functionalities cannot be compromised. Kyte carries out integrations in depth to ensure travelers get a seamless experience when booking flights through third parties.”
“We strive to deliver a highly efficient booking experience to our corporate travel agencies through our API and travel agent desktop, BookingPad,” added Jorge Diaz, chief executive, AirGateway. “We are excited about this partnership with Kyte bringing an effective API-based connection to easyJet to our clients alongside the 27+ major NDC airlines, as well as Travelport GDS (EDIFACT) and consolidated content, all in one screen.”
