OnArrival Travel

What OnArrival Travel does

OnArrival Travel is a Bengaluru-based travel technology company founded in 2022 that operates an API-first B2B platform aimed at modernizing the travel industry's underlying technology infrastructure. The company builds an open-access platform that consolidates ancillary travel services — such as booking, inventory, and related operational components — through APIs, providing a unified, modular system explicitly designed to replace outdated legacy infrastructure used by travel businesses.

The platform targets travel industry players including airlines, travel agencies, and new market entrants seeking to deploy and scale travel products faster with lower integration overhead. Distribution is structured as an OEM/embedded/white-label API channel with global scope, and revenue is modeled as a marketplace commission on platform services, though no public pricing exists. As of late 2025, OnArrival had raised approximately $175,000 in pre-seed funding from Antler India (Jan 2023) and an earlier Antler round (Apr 2022), employs 1–10 people, and is led by CTO Pawan Shetty. The company reports operating status, though its corporate website returned a 502 Bad Gateway error at last check, and there is no disclosed revenue, customer base, or follow-on funding — placing it firmly in the pre-revenue product-development phase.

Direct peers

• Duffel: Duffel is a B2B travel API platform that enables sellers to book flights, hotels, and ancillary services through a unified developer-first interface. It is the closest direct competitor to OnArrival's API-first, ancillary-consolidation proposition.
• Kiwi.com (Tequila API): Kiwi.com's Tequila API offers B2B access to flights, ground transport, and accommodation content via APIs, targeting travel sellers and new entrants — directly comparable in API-first distribution and ancillary aggregation.

Broad incumbents

• Amadeus for Developers: Amadeus is a global GDS offering self-service APIs for flights, hotels, and travel content. It is the incumbent comparison point for any travel-API platform and represents both a partner and competitor to OnArrival.
• Sabre Travel Network: Sabre is a major GDS and travel technology provider with APIs and developer platforms serving airlines, agencies, and corporations. It competes in the same B2B travel infrastructure category as OnArrival.
• Travelport: Travelport is a global travel commerce platform offering API-based distribution for air, hotel, and ancillary content, with a strong presence among travel agencies and TMCs — comparable as an established API-driven distributor.
• Hotelbeds Group: Hotelbeds is a B2B ancillary and bedbank platform distributing hotel rooms and ancillary services (transfers, activities, tickets) to travel sellers — directly comparable in the ancillary-consolidation model OnArrival is building.
• Booking.com for Partners: Booking.com offers partner APIs and connectivity solutions enabling accommodation and ancillary distribution to travel sellers — comparable as a large-scale API platform serving the same horizontal travel-seller base.
• Expedia Partner Solutions: Expedia Partner Solutions provides B2B APIs for hotels, flights, cars, and packages to airlines, agents, and apps. It is a direct comparator in API-first travel-content distribution at scale.

Emerging players

• Viator: Viator is an experiences and tours marketplace with a partner API used by OTAs and travel sellers. It represents a category leader in one of the ancillary verticals OnArrival aims to consolidate via APIs.
• Skyscanner: Skyscanner operates APIs (e.g. Skyscanner Partner Programme) that enable travel sellers to surface flight and ancillary content — comparable in providing API-driven travel content to downstream sellers and new entrants.
