Dohop

Dohop is an award-winning travel technology provider based in Iceland. Its unique virtual interlining technology allows airlines to seamlessly connect with each other, and with other travel providers, without relying on legacy booking systems and complex and inflexible interline agreements. This in turn enables a passengers to create an itinerary composed of flight segments from multiple airlines. This has cost and convenience benefits over traditional flight availability from individual airlines, airline alliances and online travel agencies. The Dohop platform supports IATA’s New Distribution Capability (NDC) standard, which enables improved distribution of airline tickets and ancillaries.

Dohop also offers travellers a protected connection (Dohop Connect), assisting passengers with re-booking, accommodation and other travel services in the event of a missed connection, schedule change or cancelled flight. The combination of revolutionary virtual interlining technology and first-rate passenger services has enabled Dohop to establish itself as the technology partner of choice for 35 airlines and airports across five continents including Avianca, easyJet, Eurowings, Gatwick Airport, Jetstar, Transavia and Volotea.

Our investment is enabling Dohop to ramp up its team, both in Reykjavik and internationally and to expand its global sales and support capabilities at a time when airlines are seeking new solutions to increase flight options in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic. Our funding is also supporting Dohop to offer intermodal solutions, allowing airlines to cross-sell train tickets alongside flights, resulting in increased choice, convenience, cost savings and environmental benefits for travellers.

“With SEP’s support, we plan to connect the world’s leading airlines, airports and other travel providers into a platform that allows them to increase passenger choice and confidence about travel. SEP’s experience of growing global technology leaders, and their unique insight into travel distribution, made them our partner of choice for this funding round. We are delighted that they have chosen to back us on our mission to revolutionise travel connectivity.”
