Unlock more with Qantas Premium NDC

Qantas Premium NDC provides the most extensive range of Qantas indirect content through NDC with no Qantas imposed distribution fee or surcharge, regardless of your Technology Partner.

With Premium NDC, you’ll have access to more fares and better pricing for your customers than Standard NDC, including lower domestic fares vs standard NDC and all published NDC sale fares.

Access to Premium NDC will be by invitation only, ensuring participating agents uphold Qantas’ standards. Invitations will be extended based on criteria, including: 

• Agent having a commercial agreement with Qantas or Agent’s Qantas sales performance  

• Agent adhering to Qantas’ compliance framework and Standard Agency Terms and Conditions 

• Agent meeting Qantas’ Minimum Servicing and Brand Requirements 

An agent’s ability to access Premium NDC may also be subject to entering into an agreement with their preferred Certified Technology Partners (GDS or otherwise). ​

We encourage you to reach out to your Technology Partner or GDS to understand options to access PNDC content and its benefits. ​

Qantas will provide agents with an option to express their interest to participate in the Premium NDC channel via their Qantas Account Manager or an Expression of Interest form (EOI) on the Qantas Agency Connect site. This EOI will be made available on 1 May 2025 in Australia.​

Your agency's PNDC invitation will be sent from 15 May, subject to your acceptance into the channel. You'll need to log in using your email, accept the invitation from IATA, and confirm your acceptance.

Once you receive the official invite, all the details needed to get started will be provided.

Yes, you can reapply for access to Premium NDC content after six months.

This depends on the capability of your Technology Partner. Your Technology Partner may not yet have developed the capability to distribute all offers made available via the Qantas Premium NDC channel. Your Technology Partner may also choose not to develop their system to distribute some offers. Qantas encourages travel agencies to engage with their Technology Partners to understand if and when new offers made available in the PNDC will be available to your travel agency.

PNDC offers will appear without a Qantas distribution surcharge in your GDS. Qantas encourages travel agencies to engage with your GDS to understand how NDC offers will be displayed.

No, currently special price offers for Qantas Frequent Flyers are only available to Qantas Frequent Flyer members, however you will still have access to other offers relevant to your customer’s journey.  

PNDC content is made available at a booking agent level. If your agency is accepted into PNDC, then you will be able to receive PNDC offers.

Travel agents may require support with their Qantas bookings from time to time and to assist you with this, your first point of contact should always be your Technology Partner.

This lower pricing initiative is for Domestic Australia fares made available in indirect booking systems only for our Agency Partners who access PNDC when compared to Standard NDC. Qantas.com is a separate channel and has a separate pricing strategy.

Qantas has been working with our Technology Partners over the past few years to ensure that your agency has the opportunity to access Qantas Premium NDC content.

If your agency is not currently accessing Qantas Premium NDC content, you and your customers will not benefit from Qantas’ largest range of indirect content and may be required to pay a surcharge on bookings (depending on your choice of Technology Partner).
