Why you won't find promo fares on OTAs?
When you search for flights on Online Travel Agencies (OTAs) like Expedia, KAYAK or Skyscanner, you’re accessing a blend of data sources. At the core are Global Distribution Systems (GDS) such as Amadeus and Sabre, as well as the New Distribution Capability (NDC) system — each aggregating fares from multiple airlines. Some platforms also have direct partnerships with airlines, enabling real-time data retrieval through Advanced Programming Interfaces (APIs), and metasearch engines like KAYAK pull from multiple OTAs for a comprehensive view.
All these sources primarily offer standard airfares — which airlines feed into the system and which can be found on the airlines’ websites. This uniformity explains why you’ll likely encounter the same prices across multiple OTAs.
However, many airline promotions, especially those that are short-term or limited in scope, may not be distributed through the GDS or API. Airlines often reserve their most aggressive or enticing promotions for their own direct sales channels — primarily their websites. As a result, while OTAs offer a broad range of fares, they typically don’t include exclusive sales or promotions available in the market at a given moment.
Why airlines keep offeringdeals and promotions?
Ever wondered why special airline deals, discounts, and sales pop up so often? Far from being marketing ploys, these promotions are tactical moves in the ultra-competitive world of flying. By filling seats and cultivating long-term passenger loyalty, they create a win-win scenario for airlines and travelers alike.
Once a flight departs, empty seats mean lost money. Last-minute deals and seasonal sales help airlines achieve higher seat occupancy. Flash sales and time-sensitive promo codes create a sense of urgency and exclusivity, making people want to book right away. Frequent promotions attract and keep customers, so the airlines’ special deals often link to loyalty programs — to build long-term customer relationships. Finally, in the case of collaborative promotions, airlines often team up with credit card companies or hotels to unveil special offers. Such partnerships not only help to reach new customers but also add extra value for passengers.
