The Government has offered Australia's three mobile operators, and vividwireless, renewal of their existing spectrum allocated on 15 year licences in the late 90s and early 2000s at set prices, while the Government expects to rake in $3 billion.
Amadeus currently provides customer management, load control and e-commerce systems to the Australian airline, but further products and services are likely to be adopted during the term of the agreement.
"The development of Altéa, which has become the leading customer management solution for airlines, has been a milestone for the industry and we expect that the next 10 years will help us to innovate further," said Qantas CIO John Willett.
Qantas uses the Altéa customer management solution for reservations, inventory and departure control. A new check-in, boarding and baggage management solution within the system is due to be implemented for Qantas next year.
Under the extended arrangement, Qantas will adopt Amadeus' ticket changer and service fee manager software.
"Amadeus and Qantas have committed to maximising the benefits of our existing customer management and online solutions, as well as looking at the role technology solutions will play in the future," said Amadeus executive vice president, commercial, David Jones. "Building on our successful partnership with Qantas, we will continue to develop solutions that help airlines secure competitive advantage."
