60+ airlines. 4 GDS platforms. Hundreds of fare families and ancillaries. One protocol.   Today we're announcing Model Context Protocol (MCP) in TPConnects Iris - industry-first machine-readable access to our entire airline aggregation network.   The numbers:   📊 60+ airlines accessible through single standardized protocol 🤖 Zero manual configuration for AI systems ⚡ Instant availability when new carriers join 🔄 100% automated capability discovery 🎯 Fully normalized across all sources   What this enables:   → AI chatbots that understand every airline natively → Conversational booking without integration barriers → Autonomous shopping assistants with complete airline knowledge → Self-updating systems as airline capabilities evolve   The strategic shift: From maintenance-heavy integrations to self-learning protocol architecture.   "When we add a new airline or a carrier introduces new capabilities, MCP-reading systems discover them instantly. No manual configuration, no update cycles, no barriers to velocity." - Praveen Kumar, CTO   The AI era of travel needs AI-native infrastructure.   Details: https://lnkd.in/dzn9ghzX   #TravelTech #MCP #AIReady #irisfortravelsellers
