Mega Event 2011 (Loyalty & Merchandising), Miami, FLORIDA – 29 November 2011

OpenJaw Technologies, a global leader in delivering online retail technology and services to the travel industry, today announced extensive new flight shopping capabilities of the xDistributor Platform Internet Booking Engine (IBE). Unlike other vendor offerings, all aspects of flight shopping (i.e. calendar/flexible search, fares pricing, availability, taxes, surcharges, schedules, branded Fare Families and up sell) are fully supported without sending a single message to a Global Distribution System (GDS). This advanced IBE is aimed at providing airlines with full control, major cost reductions, improved yield and effective brand promotion. The advanced flight shopping capabilities have been enabled by VAYANT Travel Technologies OneSearch^TM fares pricing and shopping engine.

The xDistributor IBE seamlessly handles the complexities of airfare search and shopping, and delivers unrivalled levels of retail channel control and flexibility to the business. A comprehensive set of capabilities are independently delivered without expensive calls to a GDS, thereby greatly reducing the cost of flight shopping.

Access to worldwide multi-carrier inventory facilitates faster calendar searches and minimizes pre-booking stage failures, thereby improving conversion and customer satisfaction. This also enables airlines to effectively sell flights of code share, interline and alliance partners.

The xDistributor Platform flight shopping capabilities include:
• Fast and accurate “flexible dates” search with branded (Fare Family) calendar and other displays
• Fares pricing – full Fares and Rules implementation (ATPCO)
• Worldwide, multi-carrier availability
• Taxes (IATA) and surcharge calculation, schedule updates (OAG)
• Branded Fare Family offering without a need to update millions of fares
• Flight Up Sell (Fare Family and Cabin)
• Multiple flight display options

The xDistributor Platform is now the most advanced single retail platform for all flight, hotel, car rental, dynamic packages, redemption and other ancillary selling. As a comprehensive retail platform, xDistributor enables customers to introduce new functionality allowing them to effectively address key business problems, unlock additional opportunities and stay ahead of the competition.

“Flight shopping solutions provided by legacy players have cornered the flight shopping market for some time. With the world of airline distribution rapidly evolving there is now an economic imperative to decouple fares shopping from the traditional GDS model,” said Kieron Branagan, CEO, OpenJaw Technologies. “Our agreement with VAYANT demonstrates our commitment to advancing in this market and delivering more choice and better value to airlines”.

“We are extremely pleased to be working with OpenJaw, a global leader in travel distribution technology,” said Brian Clark, VAYANT’s CEO. “With the latest xDistributor IBE including VAYANT’s OneSearch airfare shopping engine, two great technologies are now integrated to bring online travel retailers unrivalled search results and revenue capture capabilities, at a lower distribution expense.”

The PhoCusWright Conference 2011, Fort Lauderdale, FLORIDA – 15 November 2011

OpenJaw Technologies, a global leader in delivering online retail technology and services to the travel industry, today announced new xDistributor Platform capabilities aimed at enabling the intelligent promotion of travel products.  xPromotion allows the easy creation of marketing campaigns based on dynamic, real-time pricing and availability of flights, hotels and travel packages.  Winning price-lead promotions can be presented to consumers across multiple channels, such as own or third-party websites, advertisements and email campaigns, thereby increasing yield and fostering customer engagement.

In order to run a campaign based on dynamic pricing, travel companies business and marketing personnel need only define the elements of a promotion’s ‘trip profile’ (such as origins, destinations, days of the week, date range and durations).  xPromotion then robotically searches for and delivers the best results to feature in the promotion copy.  The best price information is displayed as links on banners and/or calendars with deep links into the xDistributor Platform Internet Booking Engine for seamless purchase.

The intelligent promotion capabilities extend the proven yield benefits of flight calendars to other product types, including car rental, hotel bookings and holiday packages.  In addition shopping and browsing behaviour is stimulated by the generation of exciting shop front lead-in prices, resulting in increased conversions and revenue generation.

The introduction of dynamic content on all static landing pages, such as the embedding of product and price information without the use of search forms, delivers valuable Search Engine Optimisation benefits for travel companies.

“xDistributor Platform can now deliver up-to-the minute, relevant price and availability results to consumers whether they are booking now or simply researching their options.  In short they are presented with the right product, in the right place at the right time – a potent driver to conversion”, said Mark Lenahan, VP Product Strategy, OpenJaw Technologies.  “The enormous power of xDistributor Platform ensures that promotions readily scale to meet challenging demands of marketing and business departments.”

The xDistributor Platform is the world’s most powerful travel retailing platform.  Controlled by a fully integrated business rules engine, the xDistributor Platform manages the procurement, pricing, promotion and dynamic packaging of travel products.

Underscoring the changes underway in travel distribution, the Open AXIS Group reports 20 new members including Alaska Airlines who has joined as a full member and has become a member of the board. In addition, Air France and KLM and Copa Airlines (Panama) have also joined as full members.

The group reports membership has continued to grow over the past six months as more airlines and allied members start work on direct connect distribution and pursuing adoption opportunities. Membership now includes a total of 43 members, 10 of which are airlines, Open AXIS reports.

“The addition of these new members illustrates growing demand from airlines and technology companies alike for a comprehensive XML standard for airline connectivity,” stated Jim Young, executive director of Open AXIS Group. “In particular, we’re seeing increasing momentum for traveler authenticated direct distribution and our growing membership base reflects the extension of the Open AXIS message outside of North America to Latin America, Europe and Asia.”

New Allied Members include TravelSky (China), Agentware, Inc., ARTA, ARTA Canada, Fare Compare, FlightView, Goldenware Travel Technologies, Hipmunk, Intelisys Aviation Systems, KDS, MindTree Limited, Motocol LLC, OpenJaw Technologies LTD, Rearden Commerce, SkyScanner LTD, Travelguard Worldwide, Inc. and Travel Technology Research.

Open AXIS Group’s primary goal is advocacy and the promotion of eXtensible Markup Language (XML) as the optimal electronic messaging structure for airline system connectivity used in content distribution. The organization says it has already established a proven XML schema as the baseline for its standard and will work closely with its members to adopt, promote, enhance and maintain this schema to create a robust industry standard that addresses the needs of both the supply and demand sides of the travel supply chain.

Dublin, Ireland – 14th April, 2011

OpenJaw Technologies, a leader in delivering high performance travel distribution solutions to the global travel industry, today announced the publication of an important new white paper: “The Airline as a Retailer” , which was researched and produced by PhoCusWright, the travel industry research authority.

The white paper, which was commissioned by OpenJaw Technologies, examines the latest PhoCusWright research on how global airlines are competing against the growth and influence of Online Travel Agencies to regain their share of the online packaging and hotel merchandising market.

PhoCusWright research illustrates that:

• Merchandising ground ancillary services – including online packaging – increases airline revenues
• White label solutions relinquish control, often to the OTA’s who compete against the airlines
• Consumers in both the U.S and Europe are embracing online packaging
• Some of the leading airlines are already profiting from selling ground ancillary services and complementary products online

The “Airline as a Retailer” is supplemented with two success stories of airlines that have embraced the online retailer model.

In the white paper, Norm Rose, Senior Technology and Corporate Market Analyst for PhoCusWright summarises: “For airlines to truly become online retailers it is essential that they not only sell hotel, car and activities on their website, but fully integrate this content into the booking flow to maximize cross-sell opportunities and retain ownership of the customer.”
