PATA CEO Noor Ahmad Hamid highlighted the significance of the partnership, stating, “I am delighted to announce the expansion of PATA’s strategic collaboration with OAG to a three-year partnership, underscoring a long-term commitment between our organisations. This extended collaboration will greatly benefit PATA members, providing them with essential aviation data to monitor flight capacity and identify emerging trends shaping the tourism industry. With OAG’s world-class aviation data, our members are well-equipped to make informed decisions in a rapidly evolving landscape.”

As part of the renewed agreement, OAG’s Schedules Analyser—a cutting-edge platform with comprehensive OAG’s airline schedules database and analytic tools— is available through PATAmPOWER. This grants PATA members access to vital flight frequency and seating data for personal and internal business purposes, helping to optimise destination management, refine marketing strategies, and enhance the overall visitor experience.

Mayur Patel, Head of Asia, OAG, remarked “We are excited to announce this strategic data partnership between OAG and the Pacific Asia Travel Association (PATA). This collaboration marks a significant step forward in advancing data-driven insights for travel and tourism in Asia-Pacific. By combining OAG data and expertise with PATA’s in-depth regional knowledge, the partnership will empower stakeholders with actionable intelligence that will foster innovation and growth in the travel and tourism sectors.”
