Airlines are transforming into software-centric companies, developing new digital products to enhance passenger experience and streamline operations. The impact is profound: researchers predict that by 2026, a significant portion of revenue for the largest global organizations will come from digital products, services, and experiences. From improving booking systems to elevating in-flight services, many airlines are leveraging internally developed software applications to differentiate themselves in a competitive market. This strategic shift is not just a trend; it is a substantial driver of revenue and return on investment (ROI).  The rewards are remarkable. A recent global IBV study reveals that organizations are seeing impressive ROI on both new and existing digital product enhancements. These results highlight the transformative potential of digital innovations as key revenue and ROI drivers. In today’s digital era, the integration and innovation of digital products are essential for airlines aiming to stand out and achieve sustainable growth. Embracing this journey toward becoming a software-centric airline is challenging but undeniably rewarding. #Aviation #DigitalTransformation #Innovation #AirlineIndustry #ROI #CustomerExperience

Did IATA Make a Mistake by Introducing NDC and OOMS? When IATA introduced New Distribution Capability (NDC) and Offer Order Management Systems (OOMS), it set out to revolutionize the way airlines distribute their products, aiming to offer greater control, personalization, and lower distribution costs. However, many in the industry are questioning whether this leap was worth the challenges it brought. Implementing NDC and OOMS has proven far more complex than expected. From integrating with legacy systems to handling fragmented standards and investing in costly infrastructure, airlines and travel agencies have faced significant hurdles. These challenges have left many wondering if the industry was ready for such a shift. But despite these growing pains, abandoning NDC and OOMS isn’t the solution. The long-term benefits—more personalized offers, enhanced control for airlines, and better customer experiences—are undeniable. What’s needed is the right support to get there.

Day 1 APEX Tech 2024 Los Angeles: „Elevating the Journey: Commercialization Advanced Connectivity in Aviation.“ Please engage with this post with your thoughts and comments to the below questions and comments. Interesting Questions posed: Dr. Joe Leader: How do we make ads more relevant to the consumer? Insightful statements I heard: Bob Reiter: Airlines are not doing enough to capitalize Ads. Inflight a-la-carte content programming is coming in the next 5 years. Chris Insall: Maintaining the quality of service across disparate services thats the challenge. Michael Pigott: In LEO networks we see an absolute revolution happening, we don‘t see that in GEO networks yet. Stephen Rice: Stellar Blus’s goal is to drive cost out of the product so that airlines can make more revenue. Edwin Edillon Jr.: One of the best ways to offset connectivity costs is to use ads. Dr. Joe Leader: I‘ve yet to get on a flight where the connectivity is perfect end-to-end. Airtran usecase: They were one of the first airlines to offer inflight booking of their flights with a discount. This business model was successful. Despite that success, I can‘t think of an airline today that offers the possibility of booking the next flight onboard with discount, wouldn‘t that be the best environment to offer such a service?
