Lufthansa Group NDC

Introduction

NDC (New Distribution Capability) is a travel industry-supported program launched by IATA for the development and market adoption of a new, XML-based data transmission standard.

The NDC Standard enables the travel industry to transform the way air products are retailed to corporations and leisure and business travelers by addressing the industry’s current distribution limitations.

You can find more background info on LHG NDC on the LH NDC website.
