Business evolution

Amadeus’ progress this half is supported by a steady evolution and strong operating performance in each of its reported segments: Air IT Solutions, Hospitality & Other Solutions and Air Distribution.


Air IT Solutions revenue increased 7.1% or 7.9% at constant currency, supported by a 4.6% increase in Airline IT passengers boarded. This was driven by global air traffic growth in the period and by the positive impact of customer implementations. Amadeus’ volumes experienced particularly strong growth in Asia Pacific, where passengers boarded grew by 9.9%.


This segment’s revenue growth was further backed by a 3.1%4rise in revenue per passenger boarded supported by positive pricing dynamics, upselling of incremental solutions to customers, and the expansion in Airport IT and Airline Expert Services.


In the first six months of the year, Hospitality & Other Solutions revenue increased by 6.2% or 7.5% at constant currency, supported by transaction growth and new customer implementations.
