- Activation by Sabre
The attached document describes the markets where the airline is available and the activation process. Full details are explained under Ordering process for customers that sign up to Atriis.
If the Sabre PCC is already connected to Atriis, then you just need to follow the last point: “Agency enable NDC on PCCs by ordering NDC per airline through Sabre Central Marketplace”.
When activating in Sabre Central Marketplace, you need to set the Shopping Tie Condition. You can select if it should apply (yes/no) to Sabre Red 360 or to the API (yes/no). If it applies to a PCC that is only used via an API (like N9** - last line in below example), then you can select “API only”.
2. Activation in Atriis
After the airline is activated by Sabre, you just need to open this PCC to GDS and NDC. Navigate to Distributors and select the Sabre PCC. In the screen below, switch the “Search content type” to Both NDC and GDS
Selecting which NDC airlines to include
After setting the Search content type, go to Content Settings for the relevant distributor. You will find two independent sections:
- EDIFACT airline preference (select up to 99 airlines) — controls which airlines are included or excluded from EDIFACT searches. This replaces the previous single airline preference list and preserves your existing include/exclude configuration.
- NDC content to activate (select up to 99 airlines) — controls which NDC-enabled airlines are included in Sabre NDC searches. Only airlines that offer NDC content through Sabre appear in this list.
Select the airlines you want to activate for NDC in the “NDC content to activate” section. Atriis will include only those airlines in the Sabre NDC search request.
Important: If no airlines are selected in the “NDC content to activate” section, no Sabre NDC search is triggered — even if NDC content is enabled on the PCC. Sabre EDIFACT search behavior is not affected by this setting.
The two sections are enabled or disabled automatically based on your Search Content Type:
| Search Content Type | EDIFACT section | NDC section |
|---|---|---|
| GDS only | Enabled | Disabled (read-only) |
| NDC only | Disabled (read-only) | Enabled |
| Both NDC and GDS | Enabled | Enabled |
Selections in each section are saved independently and are preserved even when a section is temporarily disabled.
3. In case you need to associate Sabre NDC to a specific ticketing (different from the default org unit queue) please set this up in the org unit content
