ABOUT US

Always on the airline's team, deeply experienced, diverse, culturally aware, and empathetic.

Oystin was founded to help airlines level the playing field in their relationships with distribution and airline IT providers, as well as travel sellers. In the travel space, we work exclusively for airlines: always in your corner, always independent and free of conflicts of interest which arise when consultants work for all parties in the travel ecosystem.

We help airlines succeed in distribution.

Founded in 2005, Oystin was built on a simple belief: airlines deserve an independent, expert partner in their corner when navigating the complex world of distribution and negotiating commercial terms with distribution partners and IT suppliers.

 

Since then, we have grown into a diverse team with global presence, bringing together close to a century of combined experience in distribution strategy, analytics, contract negotiation, and retailing across 5 continents on 80+ assignments.

  • Pro-Airline, not neutral: We work exclusively for airlines. No vendor projects or sponsorships means no conflicts of interest and no divided loyalties.
     

  • Independent and intellectually honest: We won't sugar coat, even if a finding or message is difficult or otherwise unpopular.
     

  • Data-Driven: Our recommendations or backed by analytics and and quantitative modeling.
     

  • Customer centric: We adapt to our clients' priorities, footprint, and timeline. Not the other way around.
