Net Ticket Data (NTD)

NTD Not Visible

When private fares are quoted, only the quoting agency will be allowed to display the NET TICKET DATA, no matter if the other agency trying to see NET TICKET DATA is group coded or not, UNLESS

1. The agency quoting the fare add the ticketing agency in the fare quote format :

FQTAXXX (XXX being the PCC of the issuing agency. TA means : ticketing agency). The quoting agency will still be able to display the NET DATA as well, but if it’s also a IATA agency, they will not be able to issue the ticket anymore, and will receive an error msg at time of ticketing.

2. The agency has no IATA number, and always (or mainly) has the same ticketing agency : the AAT field ‘TKAG’ may be updated with the PCC of the agency issuing tickets, so that the default would be to quote with this ticketing agency. Here for instance, 1BT could be added to the AAT of 7E5X in the TKAG field if 1BT always issue tickets for 7E5X.

3. The NGGF field in the AAT Table controls whether NTD is on/off

Net Ticket Data Conflict

This is returned when attempting to combine two fares that have conflicting ticketing instructions for masking the fare, eg IT and BT Since it can only be one or the other, the fare fails to quote.
