Global airline alliance Star Alliance and Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) have expanded their partnership under which the Indian IT firm will deliver predictive and real-time business analytics for the former.

The business analytics will be used by Star Alliance to enhance customer experiences while speeding up the digital transformation journey.

The two parties have been working together for more than 15 years across multiple regions.

Recently, TCS wrapped up a large-scale cloud migration to help the global airline alliance boost speed to market, offer seamless customer experiences during interline travels, and also cut down the number of third country operators engaged by member carriers.
