- Pricing
- Not published
- Category
- Other
Travelfusion aggregates low-cost carrier (LCC) and NDC content from hundreds of suppliers into a single API, which is useful if you need direct-connect flight, rail, or hotel inventory beyond what Travelport offers. Choose it when your business depends on LCC and NDC distribution and you want one integration point instead of managing multiple supplier connections.
Where it is strong
- Single API for hundreds of LCC and NDC suppliers
- Includes rail and hotel aggregation alongside flights
- Offers payment and settlement tools (tfPay) for bookings
Where it falls short
- No published pricing, so you must contact sales

- E-commerce
Duffel is an API-first toolkit for selling flights and stays, aimed at businesses that want to embed travel into their own product without building a full agency workflow. Choose it over Travelport if you need modern, developer-friendly APIs with pay-as-you-go pricing and no upfront costs, rather than a traditional agency retailing platform.
Where it is strong
- No upfront fees and pay-as-you-go pricing
- Client libraries for Node.js, Python, and Ruby
- Prebuilt components for seat selection and payments
Where it falls short

- Switching from Travelport:
- Moving from Travelport means rebuilding your booking flow on Duffel's APIs, which may require using your own IATA accreditation unless you opt for enterprise pricing.
- Per boarded passenger
9.Farel
Best for: Airlines that want to own their direct sales and operations without legacy PSS fragmentation
- Pricing
- Per boarded passenger
- Category
- Other

Where it is strong
- One fee covers PSS, RMS, DCS, IBE, and all features
- Most airlines go live in 2-8 weeks with migration support
- IATA One Order and NDC-ready, API-first architecture

- Offers and Orders-based retailing model (Hitit Oxygen) aligned with IATA standards
- Global reach with 30,000+ agents on its distribution platform and 900+ airports served

FAQ
Questions about Travelport alternatives
What are the main differences between Travelport and API-first alternatives like Duffel?
Travelport is a traditional agency retailing platform with a full suite of tools, while Duffel offers lightweight APIs for embedding travel into your own product. Duffel charges per confirmed order with no upfront fees, making it suitable for startups and non-traditional sellers.
Which alternatives are best for airlines rather than travel agencies?
Farel and Navitaire are built specifically for airlines and rail carriers, offering reservations, ancillary sales, and operations management. They replace legacy PSS systems and help airlines own their direct sales, unlike Travelport which aggregates content from many suppliers.
Are there alternatives that provide low-cost carrier and NDC content?
Travelfusion aggregates LCC and NDC content from hundreds of suppliers into a single API, which is ideal for OTAs and TMCs needing broad direct-connect inventory. It also includes rail and hotel aggregation, plus payment tools.
Do any alternatives offer transparent pricing?
Duffel publishes its pricing: $3.00 per confirmed flight order, $2.00 per paid ancillary, and $0.005 per excess search beyond a 1500:1 search-to-book ratio. Most other alternatives, like Farel, Navitaire, and Hitit, do not publish pricing and require a sales quote.
What should I consider if I need corporate travel management?
KDS (Amadeus) is a corporate travel and expense management platform that integrates booking, approvals, and expense reporting. It is suited for mid-sized to large companies, but its site is behind a bot check, so verifying details may be difficult.
