With Magnolia, we've been able to finish in 5 days a job that took us weeks and was highly stressful.
The customization possibilities and being able to work independently of development allow us to perform much faster.
We needed a CMS that was flexible, open, simple, and supported by a very large community. So we chose Magnolia.
Boosting direct sales
Air Europa is a Spanish airline founded in 1984 with a hub in Madrid. The company operates in more than 25 markets, in 8 languages and a large part of its market is in Latin America and Europe.
In recent years, Air Europa generated great growth online, promoting sales through its direct channels, which became the first sales channel within the company.
They had a proprietary development CMS that generated stability problems, especially when it came to working on a complex website with 29 sites (1 to 5 languages per site) different languages globally.
To continue growing, they concluded that at a technical level they should choose new tools and make a relaunch based on four pillars:
- New CMS: The proprietary CMS was not very agile and not very flexible.
- New payment platform.
- New architecture and infrastructure.
- New Booking Engine for: Sale - Postsale - Check-in.
Highlights
The Challenge
Building a new User Interface
As the company's website is the main sales channel through which passengers buy Air Europa services, it was internally concluded that they needed to build a new hybrid website based on two parts:
Headless: they were looking for a CMS that would allow them to publish all the content through the API for the most dynamic pages, i.e. those that have the most changes and various components: the Home, Booking, Postsales, Check-in.
CMS-Framework: their objective was to be able to build all the templates within the CMS for the areas of Information, Loyalty and Landing Pages.
They were looking for a CMS that would allow them
- Multi-language, multi-market, multi-device and multi-site management.
- The possibility of reusing content.
- Flexibility and ease of use, without depending on development.
- Combine traditional and Headless CMS capabilities on websites.
- Ability to industrialize the management of Landing Pages.
- Stability.
- Possibility of developing and managing native App content for both iOS and Android.
