Getting started
Every new direct NDC API integration to Finnair is evaluated and requires approval from Finnair. Approved integrations will receive a possible time slot for the kick-off of the project.
To initiate the evaluation process, please fill out this form to contact our NDC team. While we carry out the evaluation, your team can already start familiarizing themselves with our NDC API technical documentation.
To read about the next steps of our integration process, you can check the Implementation flow.
Already an Altéa NDC API user
If you are already connected to another airline using Amadeus Altéa NDC API, integrating AY NDC is very simple.
