Tangible benefits include faster and simpler check-in for travellers, the ability to re-accommodate disrupted passengers in a matter of seconds, improved on-time performance, and consistent, automatic application of customer preferences at every touch point.
Cyril Tetaz, executive vice president, airlines, Amadeus Asia Pacific, commented: “It’s clear that Philippine Airlines’ business strategy is en route to further propel it into the future of travel, where its customers need it to be, and we’re extremely proud to walk that path with the airline.
“We are committed to Philippine Airlines’ success in the long-term and look forward to delivering continual collaboration to ensure today’s agreement matches the expectations of its travellers.
We warmly welcome Philippine Airlines to the Amadeus Altéa community, where it joins leading airlines around the world which similarly value the flexibility and customer centricity brought to them by Amadeus’ technology.”
