NDC, data, and AI with Dr Vugranam Sreedhar, Kyndryl
Subscribe to our free weekly newsletter: worldaviationfestival.com/subscribe-3/
At Aviation Festival Americas, Dr Vugranam Sreedhar, Distinguished Engineer and Vice President, Kyndryl joined to discuss the industry's NDC journey and the role of digital tech, cloud-based platforms, and artificial intelligence (AI) in accelerating its adoption.
To support his insights, Sreedhar used the analogy of a chess board. Here, Sreedhar likened data to the king piece and generative AI as the queen. In his analogy, data is essential but it is AI that can transform it into actionable insights, enhancing customer experiences.
Unpacking the NDC journey, Sreedhar highlighted several key points. Firstly, the historical challenges NDC has faced explaining why adoption has been relatively slow. Secondly, the catalyst effect of the pandemic, describing it as a turning point for NDC. Thirdly, the opportunity for empowerment that it presents airlines, giving them control over both their data and destiny.
For insights on all this and more, watch the full interview below.
Questions asked include:
We have been having conversations around NDC for a number of years now, but why have we seen the momentum around it grow so much recently?
How are we seeing cloud-based platforms and digital technology accelerate this adoption?
How do you foresee GenAI transforming the travel landscape?

This man has swallowed too much Saudi love…. What a simp
You are so 👉 The legacy of Jamshed Ji Tata and the Maharaj symbol is it's winning 🥇 factor so unique and Maharaj in the sky Hope his legacy stays on forever as a symbol of safety, comfort and relaxation
Wish him well and may.all his endeavors to make Tata Airindia GROUP, the No one Airline in the.world Congratulations 🎊
nice one
It is going to take a very long time to turn around and you are not doing it right !
Why Tony left Etihad to Riyadh Air?
Fantastic listening to Jeanette ❤️
My god , Peter surprised me. Wow he is worth running top notch airline
His only accomplishment as a ceo is making air india customer his personal urinal pod.
I wonder what Air India's plans are after Indigo's bold order of 30 A350s with 70 options.
Congratulations kazisktan
Amazing.. thanks
Extremely unprofessional moderator . Bad selection of questions and disrespecting the Panel by asking questions not pertaining to them
"are you even going to get the planes that you ordered?" what kind of question is this!!
I really want to see this Really Cool Airline....😂
Getting new air crafts is not the only thing which can bring change to customers. On ground level, yesterday, 50 Vistara flights on a single day) were cancelled causing unexplianable trouble to passengers. It is a black mark in their history whatever explanation they have in hand.
A pragmatic CEO ! Long road ahead. I would fly Air India Internationally if the experience is as targeted by this projected transformation.
I don't respect him Because he said The Symbol of Air india, the OG legendary Server " Maharaja" Is Old and should be left behind I don't think Air india will make a comeback without its soul AIR INDIA IS NOTHING WITHOUT MAHARAJA
Don't be emotional, the maharaja image is ruined by the previous management. So can't use it for goodwill
I have no idea why people are so emotional at such stupid things, maharaja or no maharaja, makes no difference in weather someone will fly or not. What will is the quality of service and the plane itself It is good that they ditched the stupid old man😂.
I just hope Air India gets it's new birds as soon as possible.
anyone else clicked on the video only because you are confused that a campbell wilson looks so asian in the thumbnail?
Not really😂 But came here to listen what's he saying about AIR INDIA progress.
❤❤❤ #weflyforfiji Vinaka Mr. Andre 😊
What is Vinaka? What does it mean?
@vickyyadav5723 Hi it means thank you in Fijian ❤️
Hes so right about how much crap Americans carry. Try being a coach driver with limited luggage space on your coach and picking up 50 Americans with 2 huge and heavy bags each. Must employ O' leary to stand there and abuse them.
Your Channel issue 1. Video SEO is not done. 2.Video Perfect Title is not used. 3. Perfect keyword research is not done. Solving these issues will give your CZcams channel better results. I am waiting for your reply. Thank You !!

This is such a joke! Linda Jojo is part of a profiteering company that ignores their customers! I have been writing emails and calling for 81 days without a resolution! Their own customer service department tells customers daily that the volume of complaints will make responses go out to at least 60 days! Pretending to care in a CZcams video doesn't fool the 1000s of us being ignored daily!! Ms. Jojo, read your emails and take responsibility for your position at a company that has so little customer confidence!

Tried to cover up over stressing the engines on a 737 out of Manchester as Captain at BA and got marched off of BA premises as a manager when caught giving away BA secrets to Easyjet only to get into a brawl with a pilot whilst COO of Easyjet. All rumours of course.
He crushes everyone. Absolute monster
this is bullshit
the overwhelming demand certainly won't come to this self hating Mandy. look at what she said in a company internal email siding with dismissal employees who were verbally discriminating non english speaking passengers on a domestic flight to HK. This poor Mandy nag is now busy shutting down all her social media due to internet backlash. Probably will soon let go
Mandy Ng is a racist. Just read the memo she drafted recently regarding the outbreak of the Cathay Pacific discrimination scandal.

He is something else. This conference was in 2013 and he said hdd we would grow the business over the next 5 years to circa 110M. 2019 Ryan nearly doubled their numbers to 158M passengers. I just wish he would get rid of the three gobshites we have running our country and let O’Leary run the Irish government for 5 years. Every Irish citizen would be a millionaire
