And it\u2019s very important to have your ticket visible out there, on the internet so we want to call it a global distribution system and Travelport comes in very strategic because it\u2019s able to provide us with cutting-edge technology that\u2019ll give us the feed for our travelling agents to see our tickets and by so doing they can also be to book tickets for the travelling public.<\/p>\n<p>The more your customers see your product out there, the more they also book. So, this impacts our passenger numbers which also helps in revenue and revenue generation also makes the company a growing concern.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sunny Prakash Gupta, the Regional Manager for Travelport in Central and West Africa, highlighted the platform\u2019s role in enhancing the customer experience by providing travel agents with easy access to a wide range of Africa World Airlines\u2019 products and services.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs you know. Africa World was missing on the Travel Port Plus so finally we have Africa World on the Travel Port Plus platform and today, Travel Port officially announced they have signed an agreement with Africa World Airline which is a leading domestic and regional carrier in Ghana and Western Africa.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis multi-year deal confirms that the travel port connected agencies, you\u2019ll have continued access to a wide range of products that Africa World is offering to the agencies and as the leading domestic carrier continues to expand in the region, travel ports, connected agencies, travel retailers with travel port plus will be able to get easily search and shops and compare the affairs offered by Africa World.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This partnership is expected to benefit both Africa World Airlines and Travelport\u2019s connected agencies, travel retailers, and passengers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Explore the world of impactful news with CitiNewsroom on WhatsApp!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Click on the link to join the Citi Newsroom channel for curated, meaningful stories tailored just for YOU:\u00a0https:\/\/whatsapp.com\/channel\/0029VaCYzPRAYlUPudDDe53x<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>No spams, just the stories that truly matter! #StayInformed #CitiNewsroom #CNRDigital<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa World Airlines has entered into a strategic partnership with Travelport, a global distribution system (GDS) provider, to enhance its visibility and convenience for travel agencies and passengers.
