Adventure, Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya Ward, Tokyo; CEO: Shunichi NAKAMURA, hereinafter referred to as the “Adventure”), powering “skyticket” (https://skyticket.com/), a comprehensive reservation website, and Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as “Hawaiian Airlines”), are pleased to announce that Adventure is the first OTA in Japan to start sales through the airline’s NDC (New Distribution Capability).
The two companies concluded a system collaboration agreement for integration via direct connection in June 2023. This direct API linkage between Hawaiian Airlines’ ticket reservation system and skyticket allows for further enhancement of sales and enables prompt confirmation of airfares and seat availability, along with the provision of ancillary services (Extra Comfort seats and other optional paid services) tailored to the needs of Hawaiian Airlines guests. With the ability to customize airfares, users are able to purchase tickets at the most competitive fares optimized for their needs. The fully automated reservation process is expected to contribute to operating revenue by increasing the closing rate and customer satisfaction, and to capture inbound and outbound demand on medium-haul routes, where demand is anticipated to recover.
The impact of this matter on our business performance is expected to be negligible.
Adventure, Inc. continues to actively pursue the introduction of NDC, aiming to provide all our worldwide users with more convenient and user-friendly services.
