NDC activity reaches roughly one‑fifth of US agency transactions and 5% of Sabre’s

Sabre said it will have 42 live NDC carrier integrations by the end of 2025 and that NDC accounted for about 5 percent of its distribution volume in the second quarter of 2026, while its chief executive noted that NDC economics are slightly dilutive to revenue and margins outside Europe and more materially so in Europe. ARC reported that NDC made up 21.2 percent of US agency transactions settled in July 2026, with 1,186 agencies reporting NDC activity, and that NDC activity was 21.6 percent in May 2026, a small increase from 21.4 percent a year earlier.

Navan’s NDC Savings Index, presented with Air France in November 2024, showed average savings ranging from 3.3 to 16.6 percent across 12 airlines over three months, and a 7.6 percent saving on Air France flights.
