Finnish national carrier Finnair announced on Monday that it has cooperated with Chinese companies TravelSky and Tongcheng-Elong to optimize aviation product contribution by using NDC (New Distribution Capability) technology.

The airline has agreed with TravelSky, a leading Chinese air transport information service provider, to cooperate in bringing its aeronautical product offering to TravelSky's customers in China, by using NDC contribution technology of IATA (International Air Transport Association), said Finnair in a press release published on Monday.

Finnair has become the first European airline to build NDC connection to TravelSky, according to the airline. The first direct connection was launched in June 2020 with Tongcheng-Elong Holdings Limited, a leading Chinese online travel service provider, as a partner selling Finnair's NDC content.
