Galileo International signed a five-year, full-content agreement with American Airlines.
Through the deal, all of American’s published fares and inventory will be available to users of the GDS, including Galileo-connected travel agencies, corporate customers and Travelport online agencies booking through Galileo.
Galileo has now signed long-term agreements with several other US airlines, including US Airways, Delta, United and Continental.
Galileo is also reportedly negotiating with Northwest.
Said David Cush, senior vice president, Global Sales for American Airlines: “With its broad travel agency subscriber base both offline and online, Galileo offers competitive channels to providing a cost-effective and comprehensive distribution platform over the long-term.”
