LAGOS, NIGERIA
Dear Industry Colleague
On 26 May 2027, Travel Distribution News will bring together senior leaders from airlines, travel retailers, distribution platforms, technology companies, payments and fintech at the TDN Air Distribution Summit in Lagos, Nigeria.
This will not be another large travel conference.
It will be a single-day executive summit built around the people responsible for how air travel is priced, distributed, sold, connected and settled across Africa and emerging markets.
TDN Air Distribution Summit 2027
26 May 2027 | Lagos, Nigeria | Invitation Only
The industry is entering a consequential period.
NDC is changing how airline content reaches the market. Offer and Order are changing the underlying architecture of airline commerce. Revenue management and dynamic pricing are becoming increasingly connected to distribution. Travel agencies and TMCs are adapting to a more fragmented content environment. At the same time, payments, FX, settlement and local financial infrastructure remain fundamental to whether modern airline retailing can actually scale across African markets.
The question is no longer simply whether the industry is changing.
The question is what the next distribution model will actually look like and who will shape it.
That is the conversation we are bringing to Lagos.
