4 NDC Standard NDC Standard 1 Introduction IATA PSC Resolution 787, passed in October 2012, recognised that the industry will benefit from the introduction of a standard process for airlines to distribute product offers created within their own systems and to manage the resulting orders. This standard Application Programming Interface (API) is called the New Distribution Capability (NDC) API. In September 2013 the BRD and schema for the shopping part of the NDC process (NDC Airline Shopping BRD), ie up to the point when the customer is ready to accept a product offer, was produced and reviewed by the IATA PADIS Committees. To ensure that end-to-end NDC process is covered, business requirements for subsequent components of NDC Order lifecycle must be produced. This document identifies NDC messaging requirements for Payment and Ticketing process, ie after customer product offer acceptance (NDC order management is addressed in NDC Order Management BRD), and readiness to purchase travel products, and up to airline issuance of accountable documents and payment processing. The document is intended to be submitted to PADIS for review and validation under the PADIS process, to enable NDC XML schemas to be produced and published as IATA PADIS release under the governance of PSC Resolution Scope 2.1 Field of Application The full NDC context is shown in the following diagram with the scope of this BRD indicated. This BRD covers the payment and ticketing processes in the NDC lifecycle when an order has been accepted by the customer and confirmed with the airline and is ready to ticket. Offer Responsible Airline system Participating Offer Airline System Airline Order Airline Product Offer NDC Standard Airline Order Airline Product Offer NDC Standard Aggregator(s) system NDC Standard Proprietary Agency/OTA/ TMC etc Seller system Airline Payment Processing Engine Airline Back office system NDC Standard Scope of BRD Payment and Ticketing Airline Profile Airline Revenue Accounting System Airline Distribution Profile NDC Standard Agency/OTA/TMC etc Seller system Business Requirements Document - NDC Payment and Ticketing Page 4 of 49

5 The scope covered by this BRD for NDC Shopping is: In Scope: Out of Scope: Issuance of an Accountable Document by an airline (ie electronic ticket, EMD, etc.) Acceptance of payment data. Ticket/document display Ticket/document history display Ticket/document exchange/reissue Ticket/document refund Ticket/document void Ticket/document cancel Payment types in scope: cash, various payment cards, airline currency (* Refer to terms and definition on cash and cash for payment types supported) The remaining proposed standards resulting from the NDC project are out of scope of this document, ie: Airline Profile distribution and usage. Airline Order lifecycle management prior to acceptance of the product offer. Agency back office reporting and settlement process. Revenue accounting process for airline and all involved parties. Ticketing driven by third party providers (ie Aggregators) 1 Ticketless carrier support (* While message naming conventions were developed to be flexible and accommodate carriers that use alternatives to ET and EMD (ie: Ticketless reservations), at the time of authoring this version of the BRD, there is no participating ticketless carrier that can validate and confirm the contents of this BRD can fully support ticketless carrier requirements) Payment types: Cash collected directly by airline, Paypal and Bill Me Later as integrated forms of payment into the purchase path, or when the customer must log into Paypal separately to complete the transaction, Electronic Funds Transfer (all bank transfers, SEPA (direct debit)), AirPlus DBI (Descriptive Billing Information) card, American Express BTA (Business Travel Account). * These forms of payment are out of scope for this version of the BRD and will be included in a future revision. Requirements to integrate with existing processes/ standards 2.2 Principles Seller requests to issue accountable documents (ie ticket/ EMD) Airlines will authenticate the entity sending the NDC message and trust that the identity of upstream entities included in the request message has been authenticated by each entity in turn up the chain to the originator. Parties using the API shall ensure their own compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. Parties using the API shall be responsible for maintaining data confidentiality and be compliant with all applicable privacy laws and regulations. Parties using the API shall be responsible for PCI compliance. It is not in the scope of this document to suggest any particular PCI compliance strategy, methodology or tools, and it is assumed that any party using the API will establish its own compliance strategy using methodology and tools it finds most appropriate. Comment [AG1]: Post PADIS edit. IATA Card Payment SME (agreed with PT TF): It was confirmed that these particular cards are just the types of UATP and Amex cards, and from the payment perspective they do not differ from any other cards. Hence suggest to remove from Out of Scope section. 1 It is recognized that third party (ie Aggregator driven) ticketing on behalf of airlines may be in place in transitional (hybrid) scenarios, and NDC messages maybe used to support it, if applicable and suitable and on bilateral agreements. However, requirements for third party ticketing are outside the scope of NDC. Business Requirements Document - NDC Payment and Ticketing Page 5 of 49

Also called Pull MEP is a message pattern where a non-addressable sender supports the ability to explicitly obtain messages from another application. This can be used for exchanges that are of pull type only Message pattern consists of one or more request/response pairs. The correlation between a request and a response is well defined. In this MEP the response maybe deferred and the requesting application may or may not block application processing until a response is received Authentication, diagnostic, logging & routing information should be included in the message header and not the payload Protocol capability to support assured and single delivery to the receiving application with no message loss Applicable n/a n/a Applicable Applicable Applicable Business Requirements Document - NDC Payment and Ticketing Page 26 of 49

27 Feature Definition Requirement Shopping Message acknowledgement/ delivery report Fault management Priority handling Data confidentiality Message exchange protocol acknowledgement provides guaranteed delivery in a sense that if there is any communication failure or any remote system unavailability, the message is transparently repeated until the application has received it. This is referred to as reliability feature necessary for business critical messages. Message loss may happen using application acknowledgement only in cases like application or system problems. It may however be complementary to reliability mechanism. Additionally there is also a notion of end to end delivery report that can be used to request a delivery notification form the end user generated by its messaging agent. This may be used for cases that a proof of delivery is required by the sender. Capability to report permanent or transient problems or errors in message exchange and return this information to the sending application Capability to assign priority to messages and process accordingly separate between processing and delivery related priority handling. Assurance that data remain secret except for those entities that have been authorized to access this data. (i.e. encryption/decryption). Identify any data elements that are subject to specific confidentiality requirements. For example payment card data or personal data may be subject to PCI compliance requirements. n/a Applicable Applicable Applicable to passenger personal data Business Requirements Document - NDC Payment and Ticketing Page 27 of 49
