Thanks to Indra, Air Europa's customers can now travel to more than 1,000 destinations around the world using their SUMA miles

Indra has implemented its e-commerce technology in Air Europa, one of the main Spanish airlines, with the purpose of helping its customers get acquainted with the new features of Air Europa SUMA, the airline’s loyalty program. This program offers the airline's travelers the possibility to earn miles with their trips, which they can then redeem in exchange for flights or other services. Indra has created a new website that allows the SUMA miles to be exchanged for the flights of any company of the Sky Team airline alliance (its members including Alitalia, Air France, Saudia, KLM, etc.), expanding the flight options for travelers with an additional 19 airlines and 1,074 destinations around the world.

The technology and consulting company has installed several modules of its e-commerce solution, SuitAir IBE (Internet Booking Engine), for Air Europa, which grants airlines with full control over the ticket sale and purchase process, among other functions, with complementary services and customized offers for travelers, regardless of the global distribution system used by the airline at origin. Therefore, Air Europa's new website, which is integrated in the official website of Air Europa, now offers the user a transparent, user-friendly and accessible transaction between both portals, while expanding the catalog of benefits and discounts for the customers of this airline.

The goal is to improve user experience with user-friendly and accessible navigation services, with an independent page that offers all functions available in the previous purchasing process, while providing more discounts and an expanded catalog of privileges and value-added services for the travelers and customers of Air Europa.
