Paris, France, July 30, 2026 – Travelsoft today announces the acquisition of Afidium by its French entity, Orchestra.

This transaction strengthens the group's offering for travel professionals in France and creates new synergies between the solutions of Orchestra, Afidium, and the entire Travelsoft ecosystem.

Founded in 2005 by David Faveur and Patrick Rajaud, Afidium is a French company specializing in software for travel professionals. Its solutions enable travel companies to improve productivity, automate operational processes, optimize air revenue, manage bookings from multiple sources, and enhance the quality and reliability of travel files.

Afidium’s portfolio of solutions covers several key stages of the travel value chain, including airfare optimization, PNR quality control, quote creation, multi-source booking for flights, accommodation, and other services, operational research, customer communication, and air inventory management.

This acquisition is based on the strong complementarity between Orchestra’s distribution and booking platform and Afidium’s expertise in automation, interoperability, and PNR management. Together, the two companies will accelerate the development of new features and offer increasingly high-performance solutions to their clients.

Orchestra clients will benefit from new tools dedicated to air optimization and process automation. Afidium clients will enjoy greater innovation capacity and integration into a broader technological ecosystem.

Afidium will retain its organization and management team. David Faveur and Patrick Rajaud will continue to lead the company to ensure service continuity, maintain close client relationships, and support business development. The teams will remain fully dedicated to their clients while benefiting from the resources of Orchestra and Travelsoft.

Christian Sabbagh, founder and CEO of Travelsoft, states:

"Afidium is a natural fit for the Orchestra and Travelsoft ecosystem. This partnership will accelerate our innovation capacity and allow us to offer even more comprehensive solutions to our clients."

David Faveur and Patrick Rajaud, co-founders of Afidium, add:
