It might be a bad move for AI... who are claiming they’ll save about INR 3,000 crores over 6 years... which is a big amount. Whether this is true or not is an entirely different thing. I doubt it is true.

Also I read somewhere that they’re moving to TravelPort only for DOM reservations and will continue to use Amadeus for INT bookings.

Now assuming you’re an individual and not a TA. Why are you looking for availability through Amadeus? What advantage do you get from that? And why does it affect *A award bookings? I’m not seeing an discernable difference in availability in AI’s online *A booking system - should we?
