How the Price Comparison Works

1. Start in Amadeus: Open your Amadeus session and begin a flight search (shopping).
2. Automatic Comparison: After using the pricing entry in GDS, the BookingPad extension automatically detects the flights you are searching for in Amadeus and simultaneously searches for the same itinerary via AirGateway (NDC).
3. View NDC Offers: If matching NDC flight results are found, the available offers, including pricing, will be displayed instantly in a pop-up window. This allows you to quickly compare the NDC options against your Amadeus results.

4. Transition to BookingPad: To proceed with the NDC offer, click ‘Open’ within the pop-up. You will be redirected to the BookingPad platform where you can finalize the booking in a few simple steps.
