EK promotion management RFI: Ludwig first proposal

A
  • Shopping with FP when PC in input (otherwise EK shopping): then we push OfferID to EK
  • Pricing: EK pricing calls us w/ OfferID
  • No RES/TKT layer (unlike NAC)
  • OfferID useful for feed to come back to us and count quotas

Flex + Instant

WBS: Booking details + TKT + OfferID
DC: Order + TKT + OfferID

18

19
Q

NZ shopping & pricing RFP: SAR (Star Alliance Redemption) availability solution

A

Polling for (all?) airlines

20
Q

NZ shopping & pricing RFP: why PAOREQ conversion is not sized py APA (API) team

A

They only do EDI/XML not EDI/JSON so has to be done directly by APE

21
Q

NZ shopping & pricing RFP: DC ATC standalone w/o Order

A

Was done on Redemption flow for AC Rewards, would be available in Commercial but needs to be tested (20md)

22
Q

NZ shopping & pricing RFP: what Akshay had missed and how he saved it

A

Had missed ATC Shopper was in scope and the pb is its WBS doesn’t allow OfferID in input but we had a verb for AC allowing to query the PSS for the OfferID

23
Q

Codes to refer to the new airline in Saudi Arabia

A

ASC Aviation Services Company that issued the RFP
RIA for Riyadh
KSA for Kingdom of SA

24
Q

New Saudi Airlines: target for CUT

25
SWA revenue increase with Ludwig
1 million per day (1.2-1.8%)
26
BA consulting company
BranchSpace will help them in their transfo
27
Solution for New Saudi airlines PSS
- Prime booking: Offer/Order on top of PSS (DCS, RevAcc...) - Servicing: PSS + support service
28
Support positioned to New Saudi airlines as part of PSS RFP
Support to agents to handle servicing of complex cases so don't have to know TST, TSM-P, etc. Maybe just RECLOC and TKT#
29
NZ Shopping/Pricing RFP: OfferID refers to
SSP Offer
30
NZ Shopping/Pricing RFP: what happens if NZ doesn't have the OfferID and details
Backpricing - Could be wrong if filing has changed - Costly process so SSP doesn't want it as the baseline process hence OfferID (would impact ATC perf)
31
BA Nexus: solution with an external Merchandising
Digital does the orchestration: - shopping/pricing: - integrate OfMS APIs - Offer Integration -> External Pricing -> External Merchandising - booking: DIG pushes adj to PSS
32
BA Nexus: big benefit of external Merchandising
Don't need ATPCo - Could even keep BA pricing engine
33
BA Nexus: benefit of our solution with an external Merchandising
1) Seamless in DIG and servicing 2) Would allow to add DP, interline AAS, AAM (in complement to FLX for missing use cases)
34
JL DP: what is easier to start w/: INT or DOM
INT: - Difficult technologically: AeRE and Flex version DOM: - Difficult regulations - Difficult competition data: NH doesn't distribute on EDI
