Volotea has selected Navitaire Stratos, developed by Navitaire — an Amadeus company — to advance its digital retailing strategy and deliver more personalized travel experiences.
The move marks the next phase in Volotea’s long-standing partnership with Navitaire and reflects the airline’s commitment to modernizing booking, servicing, and ancillary retail capabilities.
AI-Powered, Cloud-Native Retailing
Navitaire Stratos is a digital-first, cloud-native dynamic retailing portfolio powered by Artificial Intelligence (AI).
The platform enables:
- Tailored travel offers based on customer preferences
- A simplified shopping cart experience
- Expanded self-service capabilities
- Faster product and feature deployment
For Volotea, the Volotea Navitaire Stratos integration is designed to improve customer satisfaction while strengthening operational agility.
Alex de Jesús, Chief Experience Officer at Volotea, emphasized that the solution will enhance flexibility and relevance in booking experiences while helping internal teams stay responsive to changing traveler expectations.
Operational Efficiency and Revenue Growth
Beyond personalization, Navitaire Stratos enables deeper operational integration. The platform supports:
- Seamless connections with partner airlines
- Integration with third-party providers such as car rental and hotel booking platforms
- Open architecture for rapid adaptation to market demands
- Scalable cloud infrastructure
This framework allows Volotea to innovate faster, deploy new features more efficiently, and maintain competitiveness in Europe’s dynamic low-cost carrier market.
Maher Koubaa, EVP Travel Unit and Managing Director EMEA at Amadeus, described the agreement as a key milestone in accelerating Volotea’s retail transformation.
Business Continuity and Platform Evolution
Alongside adopting Navitaire Stratos, Volotea has extended its existing New Skies agreement with Navitaire, ensuring continuity as the airline transitions to the new digital retailing environment.
The phased rollout approach allows the airline to maintain operational stability while implementing advanced AI-driven capabilities.
Strategic Context
Founded in 2011 and headquartered in Barcelona, Volotea specializes in point-to-point routes connecting small and medium-sized cities across Europe and North Africa.
The Volotea Navitaire Stratos initiative underscores a broader industry shift toward AI-enabled retailing models, where airlines move beyond static booking flows to dynamic, customer-centric digital ecosystems.
As low-cost carriers compete on both price and experience, the adoption of cloud-native, AI-powered platforms is increasingly central to sustaining growth, improving margins, and enhancing customer loyalty.
