EasyJet signs up with Amadeus to attract business travellers

EasyJet and Amadeus have signed a new extended agreement, which should enable the British airline to increase its market share of business customers.

Four years after their first agreement, EasyJet is renewing its confidence in Amadeus, and is counting on the GDS to attract a growing number of business travellers to its network. According to information released last week by the low-cost airline, business travellers account for almost 9 million passengers a year, or 18% of the airline's total passengers.
