Sounds on Amadeus

NEW Zealand carrier Sounds Air is making its content available globally through the Amadeus Travel Platform, under a new partnership between the tech giant and Takeflite providing “enhanced global distribution options to regional airlines”.

Blenheim-based Sounds Air is hosted on the Takeflite Solutions passenger service system, with the Amadeus pact seeing endto-end integration of Sounds’ content to bring back-office benefits for sellers.

Sounds Air has been operating for 34 years and now provides scheduled services between Blenheim, Christchurch, Nelson, Paraparaumu, Picton, Taupo, Wanaka, Wellington & Westport.

The Takeflite/Amadeus move will facilitate Sounds Air bookings through Amadeus’ global network of retail travel agents, TMCs, corporations, tour operators, online travel agents and metasearch players.
