Airline choice is fragmented.
Access should not be.
Air content now sits across GDSs, airline-direct APIs, NDC connections and low-cost carrier platforms. Each source can expose different fare families, ancillaries, payment rules and servicing functions.
Novex provides a distribution layer designed to bring these sources into a more consistent workflow for agencies, TMCs, OTAs and corporate platforms. The objective is not simply more search results. It is usable content with the booking, ticketing and servicing processes required to support it operationally.
01 / Content aggregation
Multiple sources, compared with context
Content is connected with its commercial rules and operational characteristics, not treated as interchangeable inventory.
NDC connections
Airline offers, branded fares and ancillary-rich content made available through New Distribution Capability connections.
Direct airline APIs
Carrier-specific content and workflows connected directly where a bilateral or technology arrangement is available.
Low-cost carriers
Content from airlines whose fares and ancillaries are commonly distributed outside traditional GDS environments.
02 / Distribution workflow
From shopping request to serviced order
A practical air integration must support the full transaction lifecycle, not only the initial booking.
- 01
Search
Origin, destination, date, passenger and cabin criteria are routed to relevant content sources.
- 02
Normalise
Schedules, fare brands, baggage, conditions and source-specific fields are organised for comparison.
- 03
Validate
Selected offers are rechecked for price, availability, rules and payment requirements before booking.
- 04
Book & fulfil
Passenger data is submitted, the order is created and the relevant payment or ticketing process is completed.
- 05
Service
Order retrieval, schedule updates, cancellations, refunds or other supported post-booking actions are managed.

NDC, explained
Richer airline offers without losing operational control.
NDC is an airline distribution standard that allows carriers to present more dynamic offers, branded products and ancillaries. It can improve content choice, but every airline connection can behave differently.
Novex evaluates NDC alongside GDS and direct content, taking into account the available fare, the quality of ancillary information, payment requirements and the servicing functions supported after booking.
- Branded fares and product attributes
- Dynamic airline offers and promotions
- Ancillary-rich content
- Source-aware ticketing and servicing workflows
