Lufthansa Group advances NDC in partnership with Singapore Airlines

International

Attractive Economy Class fares from Singapore now available exclusively via NDC or direct channels.

Expanding modern airline retailing in Asia Pacific

With New Distribution Capability (NDC) at the core of its 2025 global distribution strategy, the Lufthansa Group is extending its leadership in modern airline retailing. Recognized by IATA as operating the most advanced API in the industry, the Group is now expanding connectivity and content offerings in Singapore through direct and NDC channels.

From September 1, 2025, in alignment with Joint Venture partner Singapore Airlines, the most attractive Economy Class fares—including booking classes K/L/T/S—will be available exclusively via NDC or direct channels. This applies to all Lufthansa Group fares originating in Singapore to the Joint Venture home markets of Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and Belgium.

Strengthening partnerships and customer value

“This step reflects our commitment to innovation and transparency, while offering our customers a wider range of content, greater choice, and more personalized services,” said Gilles Burgat, Lufthansa Group General Manager for Singapore, Malaysia, and Brunei. “Following the example of our Joint Venture partner Singapore Airlines, we are confident this transition will bring even more value to our corporate clients, agencies, and travelers commencing their journey in Singapore.”

Focus on innovation and distribution

The initiative underscores two priorities for the Lufthansa Group in Asia Pacific: the strengthening of its Joint Venture partnership with Singapore Airlines, and the strategic advancement of modern airline retailing through NDC.
