Navan Launches Direct NDC Content Aggregation Platform
On July 21, 2025, Navan announced the launch of its proprietary content aggregation platform. The travel management company also confirmed that as of June 2025, it had retired its GDS-based NDC connection in favor of direct airline API integrations and select aggregator partnerships.
After testing three approaches (direct airline APIs, aggregator partnerships, and legacy GDS NDC feeds), the company concluded that direct integrations offered the best quality and fastest issue resolution.
At the GBTA Conference in Denver, Accelya presented Navan with the Travel Seller Excellence Award for its efforts in NDC adoption.
Navan is collaborating with Accelya via the FLX Select program to accelerate NDC rollout and onboarding.
FLX Select is a service launched by Accelya in June 2024 that helps airlines adopt NDC within 90 days. The program offers a standardized guide for onboarding and continued operational support.
