ISSUING AN ETICKET

The issuance of an E-ticket is basically only one step further than a normal reservation.

Look at the reservation below. The passenger has booked a round trip.

To issue a reservation, two mandatory fields are needed:

Form of Payment (in this case INVOICE)


Filed Fare

An E-ticket is required and will be issued on SK ticket stock (Default Plating Carrier)

To issue a ticket enter: TKP

Tab behind the record locator to open the PNR again. The PNR will be updated.

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 16 of 74


The PNR will be updated:

Three new fields will appear in the PNR: *SI, *HTI and *HTE.
In the ticketing field the moment of issue will be shown.

*SI Service Information Shows Ticket Numbers being send to the airline.

A SSR has been send to the airline, using the code TKNE In this case.
If the ticket number has not been send to the airline, the travel agent needs to do this
manually. Otherwise, the reservation / ticket might be cancelled by the airline.

*HTI Ticket Numbers Shows actual and historical ticket numbers, which
will also appear on the daily Sales Report.

This is a First Issue. So there are only Current Ticketing Data.

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 17 of 74


*HTE E-ticket Record(s) Shows all E-ticket records connected with this PNR.

Explanation of the information in the E-ticket:

TKT: Ticket number including airline code. No check digit shown.


Issued: Date of Issue.
FOP: Form of Payment
Pseudo: Agency Office ID for Galileo
Plating Carrier: Through the Plating Carrier Logic, Galileo will automatically choose the
logical issuing Carrier.
ISO Country Code where the ticket has been issued.
IATA IATA license number.
USE Shows status code for the different flight coupons. In this case OPEN.
F/B Farebasis, in this case BNLY
CPN Coupon numbers of the ticket. In this case there are two flight coupons, 1
and 2.
Fare Shows fare without taxes, but including Q-charges in the Fare Calculation.
Fare Amount should be Total NUC x ROE.
Tax Three tax fields. A tax with an ISO code XT is an Extension Tax. It is a
calculation of multiple taxes. The taxes that make up the XT-tax are shown
behind the ROE.
Total Total including taxes.
(Fare Calculation) Below the total we will find the Fare Calculation, normally in NUC.
ROE Rate Of Exchange between NUC and currency of country of commencement.
XT Specification of XT-taxes
RLOC Galileo and Airline Record Locators.

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 18 of 74


ETICKET STATUS CODES

Under the tag USE in an E-ticket different status codes may appear. Normally only the status code
OPEN can be changed by the Travel Agent. For example when a ticket is voided by the Travel
Agent, the status code will change from OPEN to VOID. Sometimes ARPT can be changed.

If a passenger has already checked in, but now wants to change his flight, it is possible to request
the airline to change the E-ticket Status Code to OPEN and then change the flight.

E-Ticket Record Status: Definition:

OPEN Open for use, not yet used.


ARPT Under airport control - the operating carrier has secured the ET
coupon prior to the scheduled departure.
UNVL The validating carrier has determined that the coupon can no longer
be used. You must either reissue or refund the ticket.
CKIN The passenger has checked in for the flight.
LFTD The passenger has boarded the aircraft.
SUSP The validating carrier has restricted the use of the flight coupon to
avoid fraudulent use.
EXCH The value of the ET coupon has been used as payment for a new

available for use as ticketed.

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 19 of 74


VOIDING AN ETICKET

E-tickets can only be voided on the day of issuance. At midnight the Sales Report will automatically
be closed for the day.

Void the E-ticket:

The entry:
TRV/numeric airline code/ticket number will change the ticket status to VOID

In this case: TRV/117 9900587102 (spaces for clarification only)

ticket number
numeric airline code

The *HTI will be updated to VOID

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 20 of 74


In the *HTE the status code OPEN will be changed to VOID.

It is not possible to VOID an Exchanged E-ticket.


It is not possible to UNVOID an E-ticket. A new E-ticket has been to be issued.

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 21 of 74


TICKETING MODIFIERS
H/TKMO
Introduction

Ticket Modifiers determine the way a ticket will be issued. For example, with Ticket Modifiers the
commission can be changed or you can specify if the fare will be shown on a ticket.

Once a Filed Fare is stored in your booking file, Ticketing Modifiers must be appended to this
Filed Fare in order to issue the ticket.

The modifiers will show at the bottom of the Filed Fare.

Two ticket modifiers are mandatory, the Plating Carrier (CSK) and the ticketing modifier, in this
case ET.
The segment information is taken from the Filed Fare. A Ticketing Agent (TA) from Pseudo City
8EV has made the Quote. The above ticketing information is automatically added to the filed fare.

The commission is not shown on this line. At ticket issuance the PNR will retrieve its information
from the Airline Commission Tables. The commission percentage and overall amount will be shown
on the Sales Report. If necessary, the commission can be changed

Normally the above Ticket Modifiers are sufficient to issue tickets with published fares.

Changing or adding Ticketing Modifiers is normally only needed in case of IT/BT and Group Fares
or other Private Fares. Especially when Fare and Ticketing information is shown in separate
contracts, modifiers need to be added.

Private Fares loaded in Galileo often do not allow a change of (some of the) Ticketing
Modifiers.

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 22 of 74


Ticketing Modifiers

The entry to add Ticketing Modifiers is:

TMU1 (Ticketing Modifier Update of filed fare nr.1) followed by :

VALIDATING CARRIER C

TMU1CKL Ticket will be issued on KLM ticket stock.


TMU1C@KL Change the validating carrier to KL. Since Plating Carrier Logic is used by
Galileo it is normally not allowed to change the validating carrier.

If a Plating Carrier is not loaded into your system, you will receive an error response while making a
quote.

The Ticketing Agent needs to request an authorization by the airline to add its plate,. This can only
be done by secondary users.
It is also allowed to issue the ticket on another carrier, if this carrier has an interline agreement with
this carrier.

The plating carrier will be attached automatically when making a Fare Quote.

COMMISSION Z

TMU1Z7 Prints 7 % commission


All figures between 0 and 99.99 are accepted
TMU1ZA10.00 Prints 10.00 Euro commission.
TMU1Z@6 Changes commission to 6 %.

From a Filed Fare it is possible to check the commission:

TPC1

In this case, there will be 1 percent commission. If the commission is set after ZA it is an amount.

If you do not use this modifier, the system will take the commission rate from the Airline
Commission Table, updated regularly with the information provided by the airlines. If an airline
does not participate in this table, the following error response appears:

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 23 of 74


Airline Commission Table :
Entry:
>CGCTD/CSN = carrier SN

For the Netherlands the commission of SN Brussels Airlines is set on 1 %.

FORM OF PAYMENT F

The Form of Payment is mandatory in the reservation, but will normally be entered with the F. entry.
It is also possible to add the Form of Payment in the Ticket Modifiers.

TMU1FS Cash
TMU1FNONREF Nonrefundable
TMU1FINVOICE Invoice
TMU1FINV... Invoice followed by min 6 max 25 characters
TMU1FMS free text Miscellaneous followed by free text
Often not accepted when issuing an electronic ticket!

TMU1F3643..*D0902*A0001 Credit card with expiration date and occasionally the approval code
TMU1FMR Multiple Receipt (see separate page)
TMU1FEX Exchange tickets (see separate Manual: Exchange Ticketing)
TMU1F@ Remove Form of Payment

INCLUSIVE TOURS IT

TMU1IT Prints IT in the fare box of the ticket. The fare will be printed in the
remittance area.
TMU1IT@ Remove IT.

TOUR CODE TC

TMU1TCIT123456 Prints the tour code number in Tour code box of the ticket (max 14
alpha/numeric characters)
TMU1TC@IT2AMS3 Change Tourcode
TMU1TC@ Remove Tourcode

If only a Tourcode is added, the fare will still be printed on the ticket

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 24 of 74


ENDORSEMENT BOX EB

TMU1EBVALID BA ONLY Add Endorsements for Filed Fare 1. If more than 29 characters, add a
second line to the Endorsement Box:
TMU1EBVALID BA ONLY NONENDO*EBNONREROUTABLE
(max. 58 characters in total)
TMU1EB@ Remove all endorsements.

ELECTRONIC TICKET ET

TMU1ET Generates an electronic ticket request towards the airline. The ET


indicator will be added automatically, while making a Fare Quote.
TMU1ET@ Remove E-ticket indicator.

PAPER TICKET PT

TMU1PT In some cases it is not possible to issue an E-ticket. In those cases an


PT-indicator will be added automatically. Ticketing Agents are not able
to issue Paper Tickets anymore. Airlines, though, are allowed to issue
Paper Tickets. If an E-ticket is not possible, the airline needs to be
contacted. Normally an MCO needs to be issued to pay for the Paper
Ticket.
TMU1PT@ Remove Paper Ticket indicator.

Other Ticket Modifiers do exist, but are rarely used.

Multiple Ticketing Modifiers can be entered in one entry. Check the entry below.

TMUnCKL/Z0/FS/TCIT2BRU3/IT/EBRES MAY NOT BE CHANGED/ET

n = number of the filed fare


TMU =Ticketing Modifiers Update

If you have any questions during ticketing about Ticket Modifiers: check Ask Travelport:

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 25 of 74


Form of Payment, Multiple Receipt

The form of payment MR (Multiple Receipts) is used to accept different methods of payment for
ONE ticket.

Procedure:

1. Add a Filed Fare to BF.

2. End Transact the BF (mandatory!).

3. Add the TMU as usual, but with MR as payment type. E.g. : TMU1/FMR

4. Complete the fill-in mask en enter after the last amount.

5. The system will respond with Ticket Modifiers Updated.

Payment by two credit cards is not possible!

If the filed fare contains more than 1 passenger, the form of payment MR must be used in
a passenger related TKP entry. E.g. TKP1P1/FMR. It is not possible to use the TMU entry
in this case.

Another possibility is to create two separate files fares. In that case it is possible to specify
the filed fare and fill-in the mask. E.g. TMU1FMR and TMU2FMR. This can also be done
in case both passengers want to pay with different credit cards.

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 26 of 74


ITINERARY MODIFIERS
H/IMU

By default, the system will print one itinerary with all passengers and all segments per BF.
To modify the default itinerary printings enter:

IMU (Itinerary Modifiers Update) followed by Itinerary modifiers.

IMUIN Suppresses the pricing details


IMUII Prints a separate itinerary for each passenger. Passenger specific
information, such as seats and SSRs will be shown on each itinerary.

IMUP1.3-5 Prints the itinerary for the specified passenger(s) only.


IMUS1.3-5 Prints the itinerary for the specified segment(s) only, and in that order.
IMUN2 Prints as many copies as requested, in this case2.

ENTER Itinerary modifiers: IMUII/P2/IN/S1.3-5

IMUs are NOT related to the Filed Fare, and do NOT need the Filed Fare number.

DISPLAY Itinerary modifiers: IMUD*

CHANGE Itinerary modifiers:


Input IMU with the modifier to be changed followed by a @ and the new info.
Examples: IMUN@3
IMUP@1.2

CANCEL Itinerary modifiers:


Input IMU with the modifier to be cancelled followed by a @.
Examples: IMUS@
IMU@ (cancel ALL Itinerary modifiers)

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 27 of 74


INTERLINE AGREEMENTS
H/AAR

If multiple airlines are present in a PNR, it is not always allowed to issue these airlines in one ticket.
Even if the routing of an airline tells you to use a specific airline, it might not be possible to issue the
E-ticket.
So, the interline agreements must be checked.

Before ticket issue, the interline agreement between different airlines can be checked. Look the
PNR below.

The Interline Agreement can be checked in three different ways:

1. Check Interline Agreements by making a quote.

When a quote is made Galileo will automatically check for the validating carrier. Since E-ticketing is
default, Galileo always tries to find a carrier in the PNR that has E-ticketing interline agreements
with the other airline(s). Only if there is no E-ticketing interline agreement, Galileo will tell you to
issue a paper ticket. Of course, this can only be done by the airline.

In this case an E-ticket can be issued on SA.

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 28 of 74


2. Validate Interline Agreements in a booking.

Since SA is flying the intercontinental sectors, it will be the preferred Issuing Carrier. To check if it is
possible to issue the ticket on SA, the interline agreement can be checked in the booking.

TKPVI/CSA: VI = Validating Interline

Auth. check : agency had authority to issue tickets on this carrier


SA, LH and BD can be issued on the same ticket in electronic version
SA, LH and BD have an agreement for paper ticket issue.

The entry will not issue the ticket.

3. Check Interline Agreements without a booking file.

Interline agreements can also be checked without a booking file being displayed.

DT/IAT/DISIB (IB = Iberia)

The reply will give a list with all agreements of Iberia. So a combination of IB and AF is possible in
an E-ticket.
The Y-indicator tells it is possible to issue a ticket on IB, even if there are no flights on IB in the
ticket. So, for example, a return flight MEX ACA MEX on AM can be issued on IB. But, if
possible, always issue on carriers in the ticket.

If you still want to issue on IB, always check with the airline!

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 29 of 74


ETICKETING FUNCTIONALITY TABLE

In the E-ticketing Functionality table all information about e-ticketing can be found per airline. The
most up to date table can only be found in Ask Travelport. The page will start with a list of the
latest updates. At the bottom of the page the latest version will be shown in Excel format.

Click to download. When opened, it will show information on an airline, but, using the tabs at the
bottom will allow you to change to any other airline.

As an example we will look at the most important information in the Finnair (AY) table:

Ticketing will be on E-ticket by default. Revalidation and Automated Refunds are possible. TKNE
messages will be send automatically.

A maximum of 16 coupons (inclusive ARNK sectors) per ticket is allowed.


A name can have a maximum of 28 characters. Often it is possible to issue tickets with more
characters, but a name mismatch may occur in case of changes of the ticket. The name will only
be partially seen on the ticket (maximum 33 characters).
Infants cannot be issued on an E-ticket.

Some airlines require an FOID for the passenger. This is a Form Of IDentification of the passenger.
If needed, all allowed FOIDs will be mentioned.

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 30 of 74


For Finnair it is not allowed to issue open segments on an E-ticket.

Claimed PNRs and Group PNRs cannot be issued on an e-ticket.

A list with all types of allowed Forms of Payment.

Interesting facts can be extra information or the explanation of notes, mentioned in the table.

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 31 of 74


FOID
H/FOID
Some airlines request a Form Of IDentifcation when issuing an E-ticket. A failure message will be
send when issuing the E-ticket.

Of course, the for example LAN Chile: the vendor message tells you to add a FOID.

The E-ticketing Functionality for LA tells you a FOID is mandatory.

All types of FOID are allowed.

INPUT: Followed by

SI.P1/SSRFOIDLAHK1/CC Credit Card code and number (without expiration date!)

TICKETING REQUIREMENTS

Booking file requirements:

1. All segments must have an E at the end of the segment.

Sometimes the E- indicator at the end of the flight segment is not shown, although an E-ticket can
be issued. This is the case if:

A segment was originally waitlisted.


The carrier activated E-ticketing after the booking was made.
Passive segments are booked.

Just check the Flight Information from the booking.

Input: TTB1 (1 = segment number)

If El Al allows the ticketing of Group PNRs and of Passive segments according to the Airline
Functionality Table, the group PNR can be issued.

2. Another requirement is that all active segments must have a vendor locator.

A PNR has not yet been received for the first segment.

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 34 of 74


If you are not sure the PNR is ready for ticketing, you can always ask Galileo to check if the PNR is
ready for ticketing:

Entry: TKPVB (Validate Booking)

In this case we still have to add the Form of Payment.

It is not necessary to have a Filed Fare in the PNR. If there is no Filed Fare in the PNR at
the time of ticketing, Galileo will make an automated quote and issue the ticket. If there is
no valid fare, a failure message will be send.

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 35 of 74


TICKETING

To issue a ticket enter: TKP (TicKet Print)

RESPONSE :
Tickets, itineraries and GMIRs for all filed fares will be printed.
The BF will be closed and deactivated.
The retrieved BF will display:
The date of issue in the ticketing field
*FF displays the ticket number(s)
**Tins Remark Data exists** *HTI (History of ticket and itinerary numbers)
An SSR with the ticket numbers *SI (Service Information)
**Electronic Data Exists** *HTE (Electronic Ticket Record).

OPTIONAL PRINT MODIFIERS


To modify the default printing, enter D followed by Print modifiers.

1. TICKET ONLY TD only the ticket will be printed


2. ITINERARY ONLY ID only the itinerary will be printed
3. GMIR ONLY AD only the GMIR (= invoice / backoffice) will be printed

E.g. TKPDTD (ticket only)


TKPDTDAD (ticket and GMIR, no itinerary)

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 36 of 74


SELECTIVE TICKET PRODUCTION

The TKP entry will generate the ticketing of ALL filed fares in the BF.

Selective ticket production enables you to issue:

The tickets for a specific filed fare only


TKP2 = ticket production for Filed Fare 2 (if more Filed Fares exist)

The tickets for specific passenger(s) if the filed fare contains several passengers.
TKP1P2 = ticket production for passenger 2 of Files Fare 1

QUEUE TICKETING

It is possible to issue tickets directly from a queue:

TKPQ Print all Booking Files in an active queue.


TKPQ/10 Print all booking filed in Queue 10 (Not signed in the queue)

At TKP, Galileo checks that the agent, BSP, ticket type and carrier are applicable for the request,
and the validating carrier in the request matches the carrier code of all segments held in the filed
fare requested for ticketing.

If all these things are correct, an electronic ticket number is assigned from the TINS table and the
request is sent by a link to the validating carriers internal electronic ticketing database. If the
request is accepted by the carrier, an Electronic Ticket Record is created and the following
response is returned.

Credit Card Form of Payment

When a credit card is used as form of payment for an electronic ticket request, an authorization
message is sent out to the credit card company in the normal way before the request is sent to the
validating carriers database. If both the credit card authorization and the electronic ticket request
are successful, the response indicates the credit card approval code as shown below.

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 37 of 74


>

If an authorization is unsuccessful, the usual response e.g. CONTACT VENDOR is received and
the ticketing request to the carrier does not proceed. If manual authorization is obtained, it can be
added to the form of payment modifier in the normal way, and an electronic ticket request repeated.

Supporting Documents

Depending on the settings in the Supporting Document Print Table, supporting documents e.g.
passenger receipt, agent coupon and Credit Card Charge Form documents will either be issued
immediately as additional ATB coupons or will be stored in a PRINT LATER buffer In addition, a
standard itinerary/invoice will be issued.

To check the settings of the Supporting Document Print Table enter:

HMET

1 2 3 4 5 6 7

1. List of supporting documents


2. GTID of the ATB printer on which the documents will be printed
3. Form type of printer. For ATB agents this will be TKT (their ticket printer).
4. BSP print option for each document Y (required)
O (optional)
5. Agency print option for each document: Y (required)
N (not required)
If the BSP option is Y, the agency option is automatically set to Y and cannot be changed
by the agency
6. Status of printer U (up)
D (down)
7. Option as to whether documents print at TKP or are stored in a print buffer. If N is selected,
the support documents are stored in a PRINT LATER Buffer.

TICKET NOTIFICATION

Introduction:

Airlines often want to make sure that your booking is a definitive sell. Therefore they will ask you to
provide them with the ticket numbers. Galileo has got bilateral agreements with almost all airlines to
send those airlines the ticket numbers upon ticket issuance. In the PNR a *SI field will appear after
ticketing, including the send ticket numbers.

Upon automatic ticketing:


Galileo transmits the ticket numbers to the airlines in the required format. : see *SI
Keyword: TKNE for ET tickets
Example :

If Galileo fails to send the ticket numbers (due to technical problems) an unsolicited message will be
send, and the agent should then follow the manual procedure.

Manual procedure:

1. Airlines having a bilateral agreement with Galileo. (See GC*200/5)

Important: After revalidation of a ticket, the ticket number needs to be added again manually.
Look at the example below:

Passenger Wouterse has changed his inbound flight. Since there were no penalties and the new
fare and routing remain the same, the ticket could be revalidated. After revalidation, the TKNE has
been removed.

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 39 of 74


The ticket-number needs to be added manually.

Manual ticketing notification:

Use the input GC*200/5/JU (JU is airline code) to check whether an SSR or OSI input is
required:

The entry to send the OSI is:

SI.JU*TKNM 115 9900587108 6

Check digit

Airline code Ticket number

If the flight was with South African Airways, a SSR needs to be used.
GC*200/5/SA

The entry to send the SSR is:


SI.S1-3.5P1/TKNM*08399005871090
SI.S1-7P2/TKNM*08399005871101-111 (for a range of tickets)

2. Airlines NOT having a bilateral agreement with Galileo.

= no automatic OSI or SSR message for ticketing notification: check *SI

E.g. TS Air Transat

The easiest way to detect whether the airline has a bilateral agreement with Galileo, is to use the
GC*200/5/YY entry. If Galileo has no agreement with this airline, you just receive an alphabetical
airline list instead of info about the requested airline.
The most recommended format for these airlines is the manual OSI input, as mentioned above.
However, these airlines may have individual requirements, of which Galileo is not informed.
Therefore it is advisable to contact the airline for more details.

RETRIEVING AN E-TICKET

An Electronic Ticket Record held in an airlines database may be displayed either from a displayed
Booking File or with no Booking File present.

From a displayed Booking File:

*HTE Retrieve E-ticket from PNR


*TE002 Follow-up entry in case of multiple E-ticket records in the PNR

With no Booking File Present:

Electronic Ticket Records may be displayed with direct inputs, or with the aid of a fill-in-format.
Individual airlines may choose to support all or some of the following display inputs.

By Direct Entry

*TE/0829050440230 By Ticket Number (including airline code)


*TE/LX/15AUG08FF00016050 By Airline Code/Date/Mileage Membership Number

*TE/LX/15AUG08BRUZRH-CANNON
*TE/LX/779/15AUG08BRUZRH-CANNON

With a direct entry a used E-ticket can often be retrieved from the airline database, even
after the booking file has been purged from Galileo.

By Fill-In-Format

Input: *TE

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 45 of 74


Completion of the PLATING CARRIER CODE field is mandatory (2-letter airline code)
Fields, which require numbers to be input i.e. FREQUENT FLYER, CREDIT CARD and
TELEPHONE, are completed only with the number i.e. FF, CC and P. should not be included.
Help to complete any field may be obtained by entering the @ symbol in that field.

The response to any display input is either the Electronic Ticket Record itself or a Ticket Record List
as shown below if multiple Electronic Ticket Records exist.

*TE2 or tab to the prompt To access the second Record from the list

*TEL To redisplay the list

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 46 of 74


E-TICKET HISTORY

The history of an Electronic Ticket Record may be viewed. With the Electronic Ticket Record
displayed, the following input is made

Input: *TEH

Example 1:

Example 2:

The *TEH shows the action taken. In example 1, the ticket has been voided, in example 2, it has
been changed. The SAC (Settlement Authorization Code) shows the change of status has been
received and confirmed by the airline.

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 47 of 74


CANCEL or RESTORE FILED FARES AFTER TICKETING

Cancel Filed Fares after Ticketing

If the ticket has to be reissued with a different filed fare than the original one, the existing filed fare
must be cancelled first.

FXn will NOT be accepted after ticket issuance.

An issued filed fare will be cancelled automatically by the system after a booking file modification
(name change, itinerary change...)

The ONLY way to cancel an issued FF WITHOUT a booking file modification is by fictitious
reordering of the segments (= faking a modification): /0S1

Restore Filed Fares

Filed Fares can be restored after ticketing to reissue the ticket for the same fare and taxes as the
original issue..

INPUT: FF1@R = restore FF1


FF1P2@R = restore Passenger 2 of FF1

Be aware that this input changes the guarantee status of your filed fare into R, which is a
non-guaranteed status by Galileo. If you require the original G-or A status, youll have to
cancel the filed fare and re-introduce a new one.

MANUAL FARE BUILD
H/FBMU

Introduction

Until now we only looked at automated quotes for ticketing. Sometimes, however, a travel agent has
got its own negotiated fares, which are not loaded in Galileo. In these cases a manual quote must
be made.

Examples of situations, when an automated quote might not be possible:

Group PNRs
Round The World fares
Airpasses
Negotiated fares, which are not loaded in Galileo
Changes after departure.
Of course, other situations are possible.

There are three ways for making the manual quote:

Manual Build via an automated quote.


Manual Build via a forced quote.
Complete Manual Build.

Normally, a Manual Fare Build via an automated quote is the easiest and quickest way, the
Complete Manual Fare Build, takes most time. Depending on the situation you must choose your
best way to build the quote.

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 50 of 74


Steps for making a Manual Fare Build

1. Create a Fare Build screen. There are three options:

FQ Automated Quote.
FQ@(farebasis) Forced Quote.
*FB1 Follow up entry after the automated or forced quote to
open up Fare Build 1 (based on Filed Fare 1)
FBC Empty Fill-in mask

2. Update the Filed Fare / Fare Build Update.

FBU Fare Build Update


Use FBU entries to fill-in or modify the mask.
FBI Ignore the fare build .

See next page for an overview of all possible FBU entries.

3. File the Fare Build:

FBF or
FBFALL (multiple passengers)

4. Receive and End Transact.

R.XX+ER

5. Add the Ticket Modifiers

TMU1.

6. Issue the Ticket

Manual Build via a forced quote (example)

As a South Africa specialist your office has got deals with South African Airlines. The booking class
is K.

The conditions of the fare are:

Fare basis: KSPCL


Fare: EUR 679.00
Fare type: IT
Tourcode: IT2JNB2
Commission: 0 percent
Endorsements: No changed allowed
Form of Payment: NONREF

Since the fare is not loaded in Galileo, a Manual Fare Build needs to be made.

Step 1: Add the Quote to the PNR. Try to make an automated quote: FQ

Galileo response:

So now the try to force the quote: FQ@(fare basis)

If an automated quote is not possible, normally a forced quote can be made. A forced quote
can be made by adding a farebasis for the same journey. So first, check out the Fare Display:

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 57 of 74


Now force the Quote. Use a fare basis in the same cabin class.

FQ@TLSX1M9

Galileo replies with some failure messages. But the advantage is that we now have a Filed
Fare including the correct taxes.

Now open up the Fare Build for Filed Fare 1:

*FB1

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 58 of 74


The Fare Build will show the information according to the forced quote. Now we are going to
change the quote to out needs.

Step 2: Modify the Fare Build for Filed Fare 1: FBU.

We will be using FBU (Fare Build Update) to update the quote:

FBUFB/KSPCL - Update fare basis


FBUFARE/EUR679.00 - Update Fare

*FB - Check Fare Build before saving

Step 3: File the Fare Build: FBF or FBFALL

Step 4: Receive and End Transact: R.XX+ER

Step 5: Now add the applicable Ticket Modifiers: TMU1Z0/IT/TCIT2JNB2/FNONREF

Step 6: Issue the Ticket: TKP

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 59 of 74


Manual Build (example)

In some situations it is not possible to create a Manual Build via a (forced) quote. In these cases a
complete Manual Build needs to be done.
Three specific situations when a manual build might not be possible via a (forced) quote:

Round the World Fares


Airpasses
Reissue after departure.

Since Round the World journeys and airpasses normally have many coupons, this will be too
extensive for an example. So in this case, a short Round the World journey will be build manually.

The conditions of the fare are:

ENHANCED BOOKING FILE SERVICES
H/PTA H/TOD H/RQ.

Enhanced Booking File Servicing is the facility to send a service request concerning a ticket on
departure (TOD) or prepaid ticket (PTA) to the airline. This is only allowed when an e-ticket
cannot be issued.

Enhanced Booking File Servicing is not available on all carriers or for all requests per carrier.

Details can be found by doing RQ*YY (YY = to be replaced by the carrier code)

SN accepts PTA and TOD requests.

Some airlines do not accept the Enhanced Booking File Servicing.

Some airlines handle the Service requests manually. If you have an urgent request,
always inform or request advice from the airline directly.

You must follow up the booking file and check if the acknowledge message from the
airline (usually by means of a Vendor Remark or OSI) is returned.

PROCEDURE

1. Check whether you can make the request through Galileo: RQ*YY.

2. Make sure your Booking File is active and contains a Filed Fare. If you need to order a
prepaid ticket, do not forget to use the Sell and Ticketing Country modifier when asking for a
FQ (e.g. FQ.BRUPAR)! Always check the fare with the issuing carrier.

3. Add following MANDATORY fields (if not yet present) to the BF:
Form of payment: E.g. F.S
Phone Fields: P.BRUH*phone number of the passenger
P.BRUB*phone number of the sponsor (only for PTA)

4. Issue the MCO for the ticket issuance. Check if the airline if an additional fee needs to be
paid.

5. Enter the Servicing request:


RQ.P1S2-4/TOD/SN/MCO.08212345678902/IOD.BRU.SN/FF2*PLS ...
or Filed fare nr 2 + free text
PTA (max 180 characters )
Ticket to be issued at BRU by SN
MCOnr with numeric airline code and check digit of the audit coupon
Carrier code
Passenger and segment modifier

6. ER your BF and check if the hidden field


SERVICING REQUEST DATA EXISTS *RQ
has been added. If not, you made a mistake and have to start again.

7. Do not forget to follow up the BF (e.g. add a RB). A response from the airline is mandatory!

8. Enter RQ.P1S2-4/TKI/SN*08212345678902 to register the segments as ticketed, else they


will not be included in your Galileo segments turnover!

REVALIDATION

A Rebooking is a change of reservation that does not require the re-issue or exchange of the
original ticket. The ticket must be updated to the new situation. This is called a Revalidation. The
ticket-number remains the same.

It is only possible to revalidate a ticket when there is a change of:

flight-number,
date of travel,
status code or,
flight-timings.

A revalidation is not allowed if there is a change in: fare, route, class of service, change fee, etc.
Some airlines do not allow revalidations. In those cases a ticket needs to be exchanged or re-
issued.

Request the E-ticketing Functionality Table in Ask Travelport for more information on e-ticketing.

KLM does allow revalidation.

Book the new flight(s) either in the original or a new Booking File. Cancel the old flight(s). The
Booking File must then be end-transacted and redisplayed. (It is not necessary to have a filed fare
in the Booking File for revalidation).

Before the revalidation request is made, the Electronic Ticket Record must be displayed. This is
done by tabbing to the *HTE prompt or by direct entry *TE/0579900682602

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 68 of 74


The Electronic Ticket Record shows the original flights.

Once the Electronic Ticket Record is displayed, the revalidation input is made.

TKRETS2/TN0749900682602/C2
TKRET Electronic ticket revalidation function identifier
S2 Booking File segment indicator and number (maximum one)
/ Mandatory separator
TN Ticket number indicator
074 9900 682602 Ticket number including airline numeric code (maximum one)
/ Mandatory separator
C2 Coupon indicator and number (maximum one)

If the Electronic Ticket Record is redisplayed, the new flight is shown.


If multiple segments require revalidation, they must be done one at a time.

To revalidate an infant ticket IN is input after TN e.g.


TKRETS2/TNIN1251672364099/C2

If required Not Valid Before and Not Valid After dates may be added to the input e.g.
TKRETS3/TN1251672364097/C3/NVB12DEC/NVA16JAN

Galileo Desktop Ticketing Manual May 2010 Page 69 of 74


If the revalidation is not allowed, a failure message will appear:

With some airlines (E.g. LH, BD) the E-ticket will be revalidated automatically when the
Booking has been changed. This will be done, even if the PNR is not entitled for
revalidation (in case of Change Fees, etc). In these cases a ticket still needs to be
exchanged, otherwise the passenger has to pay a Change Fee at the airport.

Error Responses:

NO BOOKING FILE RETREIVED - Revalidation inputs can only be made from a displayed Booking
File.

ERROR - SEGMENT MUST BE PRESENT AND NOT OPEN/PAST-DATE/ NON-AIR - Revalidation


cannot be performed from a definite flight to an open segment, or for past date segments or non-air
segments.

END BOOKING FILE BEFORE TKR - Booking File must be end-transacted after new segments
are changed or added.

ELECTRONIC TICKET NOT DISPLAYED - Electronic Ticket Record must be displayed when
revalidation input is made.

UNABLE TO PROCESS ELECTRONIC REVALIDATION


ITINERARY NOT VALID FOR ETKT - Trying to revalidate to a carrier not in the booked segment.

REVALIDATION REQUEST REJECTED - PLEASE CONTACT AIRLINE - Carrier has chosen to


deny the revalidation request.

Exchange Ticketing:

If a revalidation is not allowed, an Exchange or Reissue needs to be done. More details on


Exchange of an Electronic Ticket can be found in the syllabus of Exchange ticketing. This subject
will be explained during the Advanced Ticketing Course.

OTHER GALILEO PRODUCTS

E-Tracker

It is estimated that 4% of all air segments ticketed in the Galileo system remain unused after the
date of travel. In these cases, the passenger may request a refund on the ticketed segment or
exchange it for future travel. Galileo E-Tracker enables you to track and manage unused segments.
The coupon status indicates whether or not the segment has been used. This data is stored in the
airline system and not in the Galileo system. It can be retrieved using a *TE entry in Focalpoint, but
the process of tracking unused segments is complicated and slow because different systems hold
the necessary data.

E-Tracker gives you the ability to record and check all electronic tickets issued on the Galileo
system. The current status of tickets may be displayed using extensive search and sort capabilities.
You can void a ticket if required, and also produce a report in different forms such as Excel.
Galileo E-Tracker is accessed via:
an internet browser, or
a toolbar button in Focalpoint, Viewpoint or Galileo Desktop

Please contact your Galileo Account Manager for more information.

Carbon Tracker

Travel, and particularly air travel, is a significant emitter of carbon emissions and thus a major
contributor to global warming. By taking a more responsible attitude to our travel behaviour we will
able to cut emissions and slow down the effects of global warming. It will also help to reduce travel
costs of corporations.

Carbon Tracker is a post-booking carbon emission reporting tool which provides Travel
Management Companies and Corporations the tools and data to effectively manage their carbon
footprint. Carbon Tracker has been designed to help companies to reduce the CO2 emissions.

It is an easy to use browser-based GUI and allows you to:


Compare your air selection against rail and car CO2 emission values
Report on data in real time in PDF, CSV and Excel formats
Run and schedule reports as and when you choose

Carbon Tracker follows environmental standards set by the Department for Environment, Food and
Rural Affairs UK Government body (DEFRA) and Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol.

Please contact your Galileo Account Manager for more information.
