Afra Wang Co-founder, UNIFIFI The company is presenting its UNIFIFI Cloud at ITB Berlin 2023, an all-in-one B2B flight content supply, fulfillment & service solution. Ms Wang discusses the pioneering product and how it helps travel businesses in an exclusive interview with ITB Berlin News. Why should travel businesses choose UNIFIFI's allin-one flight ticketing solutions? UNIFIFI is a new breed of consolidator converging technology, content, fulfillment, and services in one place. With IATA & ARC/BSP agent accreditations from four continents, and IATA NDC/ARM Index Seller qualifications, our content repository can dynamically aggregate across multiple GDSs, 30+ NDC, and API direct airline connections into one single interface. We often say 'tech-driven content and service hyper-efficiency must become the core competence in every travel merchant’s businesses.' That’s what we offer at UNIFIFI. How do these help travel businesses meet their customers' highest expectations and why is this especially important now? While digital-first customers seek instant results and always-on service support, there’s no other reason travel merchants cannot provide that. What we do at UNIFIFI is to empower our travel merchants, whether big or small, with or without agent accreditations, to equip their professional capabilities through onestop searching, booking, ticketing, ancillary shopping, order modification, and any post-booking service supports whenever the carriers provide. With 80%+ of our UNIFIFI Cloud content being self-operated, we can deliver more and serve better! Hall 5.1 / Stand 128 50 ITB BERLIN NEWS • TUESDAY 7 TH MARCH 2023 www.itb-berlin-news.com
