Lufthansa City Center (LCC) now offers its customers an upgrade to a higher travel class at a fixed price via the Lucy and Bridge-IT distribution platforms.

This makes LCC the first Travel Management Company (TMC) to integrate this booking function and is made possible by LCC being connected to Lufthansa Group Network airlines' Direct NDC API and NDC Partner Program.

The program includes the NDC Smart Offer: Lufthansa Group airlines’ most competitive fares as well as ancillary products such as WiFi and lounge access vouchers.

With its Lucy and Bridge-IT systems, LCC bundles offers from service providers for travel agency partners at one digital location. In addition to NDC offerings, the Lucy and Bridge-IT LCC platforms also integrate complete GDS content.

Both platforms particularly avail any corporate customer seeking access to Lufthansa Group airlines’ Direct NDC API content and offer an integrated sophisticated Corporate Booking Tool.

LCC and Lufthansa Group Network airlines are thus offering their customers a better booking experience in the business travel segment, which is supported by the latest IATA NDC@Scale certification.
