Travelport has expanded its partnership with Biman Bangladesh Airlines, the national flag carrier of Bangladesh. The deal means that all of Travelport’s 67,000 connected travel agencies can gain access to Biman Bangladesh Airlines’ full content, which will include international, domestic and group bookings, as well as select ancillaries such as paid seating and extra baggage. The flexibility of domestic and group bookings is of particular relevance for travel agents in Bangladesh as they cater to a large number of group travellers such as contract workers and Muslim Haj pilgrims flying out of Bangladesh. Damian Hickey Vice President, Asia Pacific and Global Sales Strategy, Air Commerce, Travelport, said: “I am thrilled that Biman Bangladesh Airlines recognises the strategic value of Travelport’s Travel Commerce Platform. Enabling airlines to differentiate and tailor their products to their specific customers has always been our key strength.”
