What you get

A flight cache shaped to your scope.

Air Cache is a Travelport-built stream of priced itineraries, shaped around the routes, dates, passenger types and fare logic that matter to your business. CEE helps you scope it and put it to work. The cache becomes the backbone of your packaging, search and promo experiences.

01

You define the scope

City pairs, days of the week, stay length, advance days, cabin and passenger types, all under your control.

02

Pre-shopped pricing

Itineraries are shopped ahead of time and waiting. Use them to power fast user experiences without paying for every live search.

03

Simple to ingest

JSON flat files delivered on your schedule. Full loads or incremental delta files. Optional Peakwork EDF, Apache ORC or Parquet on request.

04

Filtered to fit

Lowest fare per carrier, lowest nonstop, top X itineraries per O&D, or your own custom rules. Keep the data lean and relevant.

05

Public & private fares

Public fares by default. Tour fares (ITX, INN, INF PTCs) and private fares available on request.

06

Multi-market reach

Fares across BSPs and ARCs, public and private. Your cache grows as Travelport content expands.

Inspiration Search · 30-second walkthrough
The kind of UX it enables

Built for experiences like Inspiration Search.

Inspiration Search inside Travel Cloud Pro is a live example of what fast, market-wide fare discovery looks like for travel agencies. Air Cache delivers the same class of pre-shopped, ready-to-serve itinerary data, so your team can build experiences like it without paying per shop.

  • Quick overview of price levels across destinations.
  • Identify attractive deals without manual fare-hunting.
  • Support marketing campaigns, promo actions and seasonal pushes.

The app saved us around 80% of the time we used to spend hunting for fares.

How it works

From your scope to your systems.

01

You define the scope

O&D pairs, travel windows, stay lengths, passenger types, fare rules. We capture it in an input file.

02

Travelport shops it

Robotic searches generate priced itineraries for your scope and store them in your dedicated partition.

03

Cache files ready

Full loads and delta files (insert / delete / update) generated on the schedule you agreed.

04

You pull and use it

Download from SFTP into your systems, or take the optional Peakwork EDF integration.
