Accelya and flydubai renew decade-long cargo partnership

Accelya, a supplier of software to the travel industry, has signed a multi-year contract renewal with the Dubai-based airline flydubai for the use of its FLX Cargo end-to-end freight management platform.

The FLX Cargo solution platform digitises every aspect of the cargo booking and operations processes – from offer to settlement.

With it, Accelya provides a “highly functional, customer self-service tool”, the software specialist considers, while also enabling connectivity to a wide range of third parties through Accelya’s catalogue of application programming interfaces (APIs).

The platform offers insights and data to airline users such as flydubai to maximise revenue opportunities and increase margins, as well as create, develop and distribute new products across multiple channels, Accelya said.

It also facilitates processes such as management of the order lifecycle, while facilitating network-wide operations and unit load (ULD) management.

Mohamed Hassan, senior vice president of airport services & cargo at flydubai, remarked: “Since the launch of flydubai Cargo in 2012, we have always looked for opportunities to invest in innovative solutions to optimise our cargo capabilities.

“The renewal and expansion of our partnership with Accelya reaffirms our commitment to adopting best-in-class practices in the industry and we look forward to enhancing our offering as we continue to grow our cargo operational reach.”

flydubai Cargo’s network spans more than 150 destinations in 54 countries across Asia, Africa and Europe.

Andrew Wilcock, chief revenue officer at Accelya, affirmed: “Working in partnership with flydubai for over a decade, we’re proud that our solutions continue to help deliver their digital distribution strategies.

“Now with our added Offer and Order solutions, flydubai can experience our full end-to-end platform offering, providing scalability and empowering their further growth.”
