• The new portal is developed using the most innovative technologies to encourage purchase, flight management, ancillaries selling and access to special promotions
  • Indra has pioneered the design and development of e-Commerce portals for some of the main airlines in Europe and Latin America

Indra has teamed up with Birchman Group to develop the new e-Commerce portal for Iberia Express (www.iberiaexpress.com), in keeping with both the Spanish airline's new brand design and passengers' needs. The new website features Indra's most innovative solutions for the purchase, flight management, ancillaries selling (auxiliary and complementary services) and access to special promotions by users. Furthermore, as an open and highly flexible and configurable system, it can gradually incorporate new products and services.

As a key innovation, the Iberia Express portal features Indra's BFM (Booking Flow Manager) solution, which allows airlines to operate their e-Commerce portals independently from the global GDS network, and to be aligned with the IATA NDC (New Distribution Capabilities) standard. This system provides Iberia Express with a greater degree of customization, thus improving user experience and facilitating sales processes, the introduction of new ancillaries and the actual website management.

The first phase of the project, currently underway, involves revamping the web portal and purchase process to offer passengers new functions and a greatly enhanced and easier purchase experience, while the second phase will finalize current design by implementing a reservation management and express check-in function.

Iberiaexpress.com has been designed with Responsive Web Design technology, which allows users to access the e-Commerce portal from any type of device (tablets, smartphones, laptops and PCs ) and adapts the way the functions are viewed to the size and type of the device used.

The newly designed website also incorporates German as a third language (along with Spanish and English), following the airline's consolidation in Germany.
