Amadeus Newsroom Amadeus Launches Machine-Learning Filter to Cut Unproductive NDC Search Traffic
Amadeus has made available Advanced Airline Profile within the Amadeus Travel Platform, a machine-learning-powered filtering solution that removes irrelevant requests from travel sellers before polling airline systems. As NDC search volumes grow, airline systems are increasingly overwhelmed, leading some carriers to scale back NDC ambitions or impose look-to-book limits on travel agencies.
