# Commission Decision of 21 August 2007 declaring a concentration compatible with the common market and the functioning of the EEA Agreement (Case COMP/M.4523 — Travelport/Worldspan) (notified under document number C(2007) 3938) (Only the English text is authentic) (Text with EEA relevance) (2007/781/EC), Division (24)

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

The Commission has however found that the bargaining interaction between GDS providers and customers on both sides of the market has started to change. TSPs and TAs have recently increased their bargaining strength relative to GDS providers. These changes in the relative bargaining power result from (i) a consolidation among TAs, (ii) the introduction of direct bookings via ‘supplier.com’ and (iii) surcharges imposed by TSPs.
