Module Overview

The SabreSonic® Check-in system workflow at airports rests upon processes that are determined and
stored in various database tables for each airline.
This module addresses the main database tables that serve as the foundation for your airport check-in
operations.
The tables presented in this module are:
• The Airline Serving Airport Table – or ASA table.
• The Passenger Terminal Information Table.
• The Priority Classification Table.
• The Temporary Airport Restrictions and Embargoes Table.
• The Airline Directional Airport Pair Table.
• The Airline Seat Restrictions Table.
• The Gates Table.
• The System Transaction History Table.
• The ESV Table- used for carriers who opt for the Enhanced Synchronization of VCR’s.
For each table, we will show you how to display it and we will discuss how to update it, as well as
advise whether it is you, the airline, who are responsible for the update, or whether you must request
an update via Customer Care.
The data in the tables are usually considered static, which means once the tables have been
established, the data is updated infrequently. Only your airline system administrators or employees
with specific keywords in their EPR can do the update.
All the entries to display, update and delete are in a Quick Reference at the end of the module, to help
you quickly identify the entry you need at any time.

Airline Serving Airport Table

The Airline Serving Airport table (also known as the ASA table) table is an airline maintained table.
You must create an ASA table for each station your airline flies into and out of. The ASA table
contains data related to the specific airport such as whether that airport is considered a hub or not, the
cutoff times for domestic and international flights out of that airport, the default supervisor printer
address at the airport which will receive the GENDEC message, and more.
Your airline maintains most of the fields in the ASA Table. You will find the fields maintained by
Sabre Holdings referenced in this document.

Displaying an ASA Table

Displaying the ASA table requires the following:


EPR keywords: TTSCTL and FSGAGT
Duty code: 8 or ‡ (the Cross-of-Lorraine)
Use the following example entry to display an ASA table:
GC*ASA/YVR

Entry Explanation
GC* Primary system display action code

ASA The ASA table indicator

/YVR Slash separator and example Airport code

Note You can add another slash separator and an optional carrier code before the airport code
(GC*ASA/U0/YVR) to view information for another airline for 3rd party ground handling.

Creating/Deleting an ASA Table

You would create a new ASA table when your airline opens a new station. Creating an ASA table
uses the same entry as updating a table, however if you make an update entry when the airport does
not exist in the table, the system creates a new airport item using the airline code, city, qualifiers and
indicators you used in the entry. If the system finds an existing airport item for your airline in the
ASA table, it serves as a model on which to base any new airport item. Otherwise, the first airport
item found for any carrier serves as the model. Then the system duplicates the model item and
updates it with the airline code and data from your entry to form the newly created airport item.
If an airport exists, but with a different airline code, the system checks for an existing airport item
for your airline when you make an update entry.
If the airport does exist in the ASA table and the code for the airline and the city match, the system
considers the update entry as just an update to the existing city, so any qualifier or indicator data
included in your entry amends the corresponding fields in the existing airport item.
When you create or update an ASA Table, you use a “GC/ASA” entry. Every GC/ASA entry must
contain a city code, a baggage index number and any optional qualifiers.
The baggage index number is setup by Sabre Holdings. The index number serves as an internal prefix
to the bag tag number, which the system uses for baggage routing to the corresponding destination
and prevents duplication of bag tag numbers. The number will be from 3 to 9, determined by the first
letter of the city or city code (predetermined by your airline).
Index numbers corresponding to the first letter of a city can vary from airline to airline, so ensure you
use the BGI number currently in use for your airline. Please contact Customer Care for assistance in
obtaining this number. See the following for an example breakdown:
A-C = 3 D-H = 4 I=L = 5 M-O = 6 P-R = 7 S–8 T-Z – 9

Creating the ASA table requires the following:


EPR keywords: TTSCTL and FSGAGT
Duty code: ‡ (the Cross-of-Lorraine)

Updating an ASA Table

Updating the ASA table means you wish to change the value of a qualifier or to re-define certain
characteristics in the table for a specific airport.
Updating the ASA table requires the following:
EPR keywords: TTSCTL and FSGAGT
Duty code: ‡ (the Cross-of-Lorraine)
Use the following example entry to update fields related to a specific station:
GC/ASA/U0/YVR/BGI9/DB60

Entry Explanation

GC Primary table action code

/ASA Slash separator and the ASA table qualifier

/U0 Slash separator and the airline code (not necessary if it is your carrier)

/YVR Slash separator and the city/airport code for Vancouver

/BGI Slash separator and the Baggage Index Number indicator

9 The corresponding Baggage Index city number for Vancouver

/IB Slash separator and the International Baggage Cutoff Minutes indicator (example of an
additional update)

60 The desired cutoff minutes before domestic departure time

The response is a redisplay of the ASA table with the fields updated as requested.

The definitions of each field in the ASA table and the corresponding indicator will be explained in the
following sections. In each section, you will see example entries showing you how to update the
indicator along with a table explaining each piece of the entry. You will also see example entries on
how to remove the indicator when applicable.

Checked Baggage Limit

The indicator in the Checked Baggage Limit field determines the maximum number of bags a
passenger can check before excess baggage charges are applied. The maximum allowable number is
9. If the number of bags exceeds this amount during check-in, the Excess Baggage Mask (MIXB)
displays.
Use the following example entry to set the maximum number of checked bags to 2:
GC/ASA/YVR/BGI9/CL2

Entry Explanation

/CL Slash separator and the Checked Baggage Limit indicator

2 Number of bags allowed before an excess baggage fee is charged.

Bag Tag Printer Type Code

your airline selects to use (Termination, Sortation, and/or Reconciliation).
Note Sortation means the system “sorts” the bags and directs them to their final destination.
Reconciliation means the system sorts the bag and also sends information about the passenger,
such as his seat number, or his status (checked-in, boarded, offloaded, etc.).

Creating/Deleting a Terminal

To create a terminal, you must include the airport code and the terminal ID.
Use the following example entry to create a new terminal in the TML table:
GC/TML/YVR/A

Entry Explanation

GC Primary table action code

/TML Slash separator and the Passenger Terminal Information table qualifier

/YVR Slash separator and the city/airport code for Vancouver

/A Slash separator and the terminal indicator

Use the following example entry to delete a terminal from the TML table:

Updating a Terminal

Your airline is responsible for the information in the top area of the Passenger Terminal Table
YVR PASSENGER TERMINAL
PSG TML IDENTIFIER 01
PSG TML USAGE CODE DOM
PSG TML NAME VANCOUVER

All information below the PSG TML NAME line addresses the type of Baggage system this terminal
is using. Usually, Sabre Holdings maintain the information in these fields for you. However, your
airline may decide to update the fields and maintain the data yourself, if you have the necessary
keywords and duty codes.
In the following sections, we will look at each line of information in the Terminal Table, and give you
example entries to add or delete any indicator. We will explain the entries in detail.
Note If your airline does not use BSM, skip the following pages and proceed to the next section of
the training guide on Priority Classification Table.

The Passenger Terminal Identifier indicator is an alphanumeric field used where there are multiple
terminals used in a city. You cannot change the Passenger Terminal Identifier indicator once you
create a terminal; you must delete the terminal and create a new one.
Caution If you make an update entry when the terminal does not exist in the Passenger
Terminal Information table, the system creates a new terminal item using the qualifiers you
used in the entry.
If the terminal does exist in the Passenger Terminal Information table and the code for
the airline and the city match, the system considers the update entry as just an update to
the existing terminal, so any qualifier or indicator data included in your entry amends the
corresponding fields in the existing airport item.

You must turn License Plate Baggage Sort to Y if your carrier uses BSMs.
The bag tag number is always a 10-digit number. The 10-digit-number breaks down in the following
manner:
• The first digit is the Baggage Index city number as indicated in the ASA table of the
airport
• The next three digits are the airline numeric code
• The remaining six digits are the actual bag tag serial number

The sortation prime gives you the ability to send messages to different LNIATA or teletype
addresses. Prime is the main address and is mandatory – backup is optional.
Note If there are printer addresses and teletype addresses in the terminal table, the teletype
addresses will take precedence and will be used.
In the above example, the table is showing a printer address as Sortation prime, and a printer address
for Sortation Backup. The same addresses are used for Reconciliation messages as well. There is no

Sortation TTY

The system uses the Sortation TTY fields to enter up to three teletype addresses to work in
conjunction with the TYPE B sortation field. When the Type B indicator is set to Y (Yes) and a
teletype address exists, the BSM is sent to the to the teletype address.
Always ensure that you have a teletype address if you choose to work with type B indicator.
In the example entries below, the teletype addresses are SEABCK0 and HDQBCU0.
Teletype addresses are composed of the three-letter city code (SEA or HDQ), the two-letter office

The Transfer BSM element is mandatory if you have the Baggage Sortation indicator ON,and
displays in the BSM with .F
For a passenger with a connecting flight (or flights), the system will send a message to the transfer (or
next downline station) when he checks-in at the original departure station.
Scenario: The passenger is traveling BEY to LCA on CY 343, then connects from LCA to STN on
CY 562.
If you use BSM sortation and reconciliation, the system will send a BSM the originating city BEY
and to the connecting city LCA.
Example BSM sortation and reconciliation messages to BEY:
.V/1LBEY (V means Version /1 means Version 1, L means Local, BEY is originating city)
.F/343 (.F element for transfer / 343 is the connecting flight number)
.S/Y/C/10A (.S element means Reconciliation data / Y means Yes, authority to load / C
means passenger status Checked-in / 10A is the seat number)
Example BSM sortation and reconciliation messages to LCA, referring to the connecting flight:
.V/1TLCA (Version 1, T means Transfer, LCA is connecting city)
.S/Y/C/12B (.S element for Reconciliation data / Y means Yes authority to load / C means
passenger status is Checked-in / 12B is the seat number)

Priority Classification Table

The Priority Classification Table (or PRC Table) determines the order of how the system lists
passengers who are added to the Priority List of each flight.
Passengers who need to be on a priority list include revenue passengers (oversales, alternate space
and others), positive space passengers (deadhead and crew, executives and others), and any other
classification of employee and non-revenue travelers.
For each type of passenger that will go to the priority list, the PRC table adds
• a priority code and a free text explanation of that code
• a priority number (see explanation later in this lesson)
• a passenger type code (see explanation later in this lesson)
• the sort sequence type (see explanation later in this lesson)
Each type of passenger needs to be further defined by turning indicators ON or OFF . Turning Off
will show in the table as N (No) and turning On will show as Y (Yes).
There are approximately 30 indicators for each classification type, including many that do not apply
to SabreSonic airlines. These non applicable indicators will always show N in the table.

Note Your airline initially creates this table, then either your airline can maintain it or you can send
update requests to Customer Care. It is important that any changes only be completed during
off-peak hours to minimize any check-in issues that may occur due to priority code placement.
Your airline should submit a request for adding, deleting or changing a priority code at least one
week in advance through Customer Care. Sabre only makes changes to this table during off-
peak hours generally on a Monday night /early Tuesday morning (Central U.S. time).

Displaying the Priority Classification Table

Displaying the Priority Classification table requires the following:

Each priority code has a two- or three-letter code – in this example, OS is the code for Oversale.
For each priority code, you assign a Priority Number, indicate the Passenger Type code, and the Sort
Sequence Type. Each priority code is further defined by a list of indicators, which are options that
are either Y (Yes, apply to the priority code) or N (No, do not apply to the priority code).
Note Although listed in the table, many fields in the table are not applicable to Sabre Sonic
Airlines.

Creating/Deleting a Priority Classification

Creating a priority classification requires the following:


EPR keywords: TTSCTL and FSGAGT
Duty code: ‡ (the Cross-of-Lorraine)

Priority numbers determine the hierarchy of your priority codes, the lower the number, the higher the
priority. When you create a new priority classification code in an existing table, you use a position
indicator to tell the system where the new code should reside in the table. The following are valid
position indicators:
0 - Add as the first priority code (highest priority). When you enter the first priority code
(PRO) into the Priority code table, do not enter an existing priority code after the 0 (zero).
A - Insert the new priority code directly after (lower priority than) the specified existing
priority code.
B - Insert the new priority code directly before (higher priority than) the specified existing
priority code.
E -Add the new priority code at the same level (same priority) or equal to the specified
existing priority code
To display the details of only a specific priority code, you can add the code to the end of the entry.
For example, to display only the priority code DHD (Dead Head Crew), you would use the following
entry:
GC*PRCDHC

/SRT Slash separator and Sort Sequence Type indicator.

S Description of Sort Sequence type (explained later)

The response is the redisplay of the whole table beginning at the top (highest priority).
To display only the new code, use the entry GC*PRCNRSB

Use the following example entry to delete a priority classification code:


GC/PRC/X-NRSB

Caution

When you create or delete a priority classification code, the system assigns or removes a seat
assignment priority number and adjusts the other priority numbers accordingly.
Exercise extreme caution when deleting or reordering codes in the Priority Classification Table;
the recommendation is to avoid updating the codes while passengers are on a standby list. It is
important to remove a code only during off-hours; otherwise, you will affect any passenger traveling
on that code.

In the following sections, you will see definitions of each of the fields and their corresponding
indicator. You will see example entries showing you how to update the indicators.

Updating a Priority Classification Table

When you update the Priority Classification table, use a “GC/PRC” entry, the priority code, and an
extra slash (/) for the title along with the indicator you are updating. If you leave off the slash for the
title, then the system assumes you are changing the title and updates it instead of the indicator.
Example entry:
GC/PRCDHD//THRU
The above entry updates priority code DHD and turns the indicator THRU to Y.

Priority Number

DHD DEADHEAD CREW

SORT SEQUENCE TYPE S
USE FOR AUTOLIST TIER LVL

The Priority Number assigns the sequential seat assignment number to indicate the order of the
classification in the classification hierarchy. The system automatically issues the number depending
on the placement of the priority classification in the table.
Remember, the lower the number, the higher the priority.

Temporary Airport Restrictions and
Embargoes Table

Your airline maintains the Temporary Airport Restrictions and Embargoes table which houses special
rules that apply, during a specified period, for INBOUND flights to a specific airport. The rules are
classified as restrictions or embargoes. For example, your airline might use this table to impose a
travel embargo for certain levels of non-revenue passengers to a new destination in order to reduce
the confusion the additional passenger load can cause.
You can also add baggage restrictions to govern how many pieces of baggage passengers can check
for a flight.

Creating/Deleting a Temporary Airport Restrictions and Embargoes

You will use indicators and qualifiers to add temporary airport restrictions and embargoes into the
table. Embargo table indicators default values represent the normal case, or expected condition.
Setting the indicator to Y (Yes) or “On” overrides the normal case, causing an exception.
The following are embargo table indicators:
• BAGRST - Baggage restriction type
• BAGEMB - Baggage embargo type
• NOPET - Pet restriction
The following embargo qualifiers limit restrictions to certain criteria:
• NRSA - Non-revenue passenger with priority code (example NRSA11)
• CB - Allowable checked bag count (example CB2). You must include this option with a
count in any entry that adds either a BAGRST or BAGEMB option.
Updating the Temporary Airport Restrictions and Embargoes table requires:
EPR keywords: FSGAGT
Duty code: ‡ (the Cross-of-Lorraine)

In the following sections, you will see example entries on how to add different Temporary Airport
Restriction and Embargo along with a table explaining each piece of the entry.

Baggage Embargo

The Baggage Embargo indicator uses an N (No) or Y (Yes) to restrict the number of bags allowed.
For example: if the embargo is no more than one bag, regardless of the number of bags in the check-
in entry, the system will only print one bag tag. If you add an embargo to a city, it would apply INTO
that city from any city. By default, this indicator is set to N (No) or “off”.

Airline Directional Airport Pair Table

Your airline creates and maintains the Airline Directional Airport Pair table (or AAP table) which the
system uses to define various functions associated with a specific city pair, such as customs list
generation, security checks and bag tag functions. You use the AAP table to designate the markets for
which your airline should transmit a passenger list to U.S. Customs at close of flight.
For example, not all flights arriving in SEA cause the system to send a passenger list to Customs, but
flights specifically flying between TYO and SEA would. If you set the Auto Send option to Y (Yes)
for the TYOSEA city pair in this table, the system automatically transmit the customer list.
The SabreSonic Check-In system will check the AAP table when a passenger checks-in for a
connecting flight. Example: if the passenger flies STL to SEA to TYO, the system will know at SEA
to check the table and to ensure that the passenger meets all requirements before a successful check-in
to the final destination.

Airline Seat Restrictions Table

Sabre Holdings sets up the Airline Seat Restrictions table (or ASR table) based on your airline data
collector. You should direct any change or update requests to Customer Care.
The ASR table displays the seat assignment restrictions for your airline. These restrictions control
seat assignments of passengers, based on comparisons of passenger characteristics to seat
characteristics. For example, your airline may prohibit handicapped passengers (this is a passenger
characteristic) from being assigned an exit row seat (this is a seat characteristic). The passenger
characteristics are usually IATA SSR codes.
Displaying the Airline Seat Restrictions table requires the following:

Gates Table

The Gate Table is maintained by your airline and contains a list of gates, the association of gates to
terminals and baggage claim areas at a specific airport. The gate may be exclusive to your airline or
shared by multiple carriers.
You must have a table for each gate that your airline uses, for inbound or outbound flights. Once you
have established a gate table, then you may assign that gate to a flight.
This table also lets you set temporary changes in a gate’s use for irregular circumstances (such as
construction), by entering a start and end date.
Note The Passenger Terminal Identifier in the Gates table must match the terminal identifier in the
Passenger Terminal Information table (GC*TML) to ensure that BSM works correctly. If the
Terminal ID in the two tables does not match each other, the BSM system will error out.

Note Although the storage time of the history is determined as above, there may be situations when
the system may act differently. You may retrieve the history of an ASA table and see the last
item dated further out than the maximum time allowed. The reason is – if nothing has occurred
that would cause a more recent item to be written to history, the system will hold on to the last
item recorded until something more recent comes in to take its place.

Baggage Agreement Table

Today the system refers to the Encode/Decode table to determine if you can through-check a bag on
other carriers. The Baggage Agreement Table offers an alternative to handling baggage when you
ground handle other carriers. Skip this section if you do not ground handle other carriers/
You may choose between Encode/Decode table and the Baggage Agreement Table.
If your carrier is currently using the Encode/Decode table method, you must contact SabreSonic
Customer Care if you wish to activate the Baggage Agreement Table for your carrier.
Note For detailed information on the Encode/Decode Ticketing and Baggage Agreements table,
please refer to the Encode/Decode Table module. This section will only detail the Baggage
Agreements Table.

Baggage Agreement Table

Baggage Agreement (BAGR) tables are created and maintained by your airline and are used to
determine when bags should be through checked. You will need to create a BAGR table for each
carrier for which your airline handles baggage.
You can set up “Positive” or “Negative” baggage agreement tables.
 Positive tables list the carriers your airline has agreement s with, so when the system looks at
it at check-in, and if it finds the connecting airline is in the table, bags are through checked,
so bag tags are printed for all carriers.
 Negative tables list the carriers our airline does not have agreements with, so when the
system looks at the table at check-in, and finds the connecting airline in it, bags are not
through checked and bag tags are only printed up to where the connecting airline handles the
baggage.
The BAGR table is accessed at the time of check-in when there is a connection to another carrier in
the itinerary.
The SabreSonic Check-In system checks the table for all connections. For example, if a passenger is
traveling on your airline to TG, then UA, then JL, then DL and you have agreement with all carriers
except DL, the bag will be checked through to the JL segment.

Additional Information

• Your airline is responsible for building a baggage agreement table for each airline that you
ground handle.
• A baggage agreement table must exist before you can through-check any bag to the
airlines that you groundhandle.
• The baggage agreement table wil not be accessed for Inbound Edifact entries. The
system will append the bagtag with the issuing carrier code, as it does today, without
regard to any baggage agreement the airline has.
• The baggage agreement table will not be accessed if you manually enter a tag issued by
another carrier. It is assumed that the carrier issuing the tag is responsible for ensuring
baggage agreement before issuing the tag.
• The baggage agreement table will not be accessed when an inbound BTM (Baggage
Transfer Message) is received. It is assumed that the carrier issuing the tage is
responsible for checking bag agreements, not the carrier accepting the message.
• At check-in time, if the agent adds an On demand bagtag, the system will access the
baggage agreement table.
• At check-in time, if the agent adds a Manual bag tag, the system will not access the
baggage agreement table.
• Sabre does not check for the validity of the airline code you use when issuing the bag tag.

Self Tagging Table

The Self Tagging Table is a table that contains a list of device addresses, by airport, which will be
authorized to issue Inactive bag tags.
Using designated devices at the airport, the passenger can print and attach inactive bag tags to their
baggage.
The inactive bag tags will only become Active when they are accepted into the system through
scanning or agent entry. At this point, the PNR will also be updated with a unique 5BAG entry.
Note Your airline must work with a Baggage Sortation system which must be able to read the A
and I in the Dot S field of the Reconciliation BSM and react accordingly.

Reconciliation BSM Example

The Dot S of the BSM is the reconciliation data of a BSM. IATA / ATA has recommended the Dot S
to be the area that will identify if the BSM is Active (A) or Inactive (I).
Example of a BSM where reconciliation is active:

Changing Inactive to Active Status

Upon activation, all BSM’s will contain a status in the DOT S field. Only those bag tags issued from
the Self Tagging LNIATA’s will be created with the Inactive (I) status. All other bag tags will be
created with an Active (A) status, including manual bag tags.
The status I may be changed via either a scanning action or a manual entry for each bag tag number.

Scanning

When the barcode of a passenger’s bag tag is scanned, the system validates that the name, PNR, Bag
Tag number are a match, and then the Sabre system sends a change BSM to change the I in the Dot S
field to an A.
The PNR will automatically be updated with a 5BAG remark. Example of a 5BAG remark after a
successful scan:

IATA Message Control Table

At Post Departure Check-Out (PDC), the system automatically sends a number of IATA teletype
messages to the downline station(s) at programmed printer or teletype addresses.
With the IATA Message Control Table, you have a place to additionally define the outbound
messages you want to send manually at times other than PDC, such as when the flight is in Close
status. You must request activation of the table through Customer Care.
The outbound messages you can further define in the IATA Message Control Table include:

Type of message Explanation

ADL Addition Deletion List

BTM Baggae Transfer Message

CPM Container / Pallet Distribution Message (for cargo load)

ETL Electronic Ticket List

FTL Frequent Traveler List

IDM Industry Discount Message

PFM Post Flight Message

PFS Passenger Final Sales Message

PIL Passenger Information List

PNL Passenger Name List

PRL Passenger Reconcile List

PSM Passenger Service Message

PTM Passenger Transfer Message

RQL Request List Message

SOM Seats Occupied Message

SPM Seats Protected Message

TPM Teletype Passenger Manifest

In addition to the above passenger lists, certain Load Manager types of list will be included in future
enhancements. Examples are LDM and UWS messages.
The IATA Message Control Table provides the ability to update, delete, display and send data by
station and/or carrier. A station can specify whether the data should be by flight, market or should
include all flights departing from a station. It can be accessed by the Sabre Hosted carrier, for

How does the IATA Host Message Table work?

At PDC time, the system sends all requested teletype messages in a batch automatically to pre-
defined printer addresses. There is no manual intervention.
The IATA Host Message table is your tool to add teletype addresses as recipients of the messages,
and the type of messages you wish to send manually, as an exception or exceptions to the batched
messages.
Once you have populated the information you wish into the table, the system works in the following
manner when it is ready to send out the messages.

Adding or updating the IATA Message Control table requires the following:
EPR keywords: TTSCTL and FSGAGT
Duty code: 7, 8, 9 or ‡ (Cross-of-Lorraine)

The answer to each Add entry is the display of a mask which corresponds to the level that you want to
work at. In the example below we want to add parameters or recipients at the departure city level:
GI IATA POST DEPARTURE MESSAGE TABLE
GF LHR PAGE 1 OF 3

‡DO NOT USE DELETE KEY IN MASK


U-UP D-DOWN E-EXIT < > IATA MSG PROCESSING COMPLETE-Y/N < >

The mask displays what you already have in the table. In this example, out of LHR, host carrier GF
sends an ETL at PDC time to the TTY addresses HDQRMGF, HDQRMBA and LHRTTGF.
To navigate and move through the mask, use Tab.

If you wish to add a teletype address for the TPM sent out of LHR, use the mask to add this
information to the TPM page.

What happens when you input UP or DOWN?
The mask contains one page per type of messages. The pages are in alphabetical order. Up or Down
is the command to take you to the page you wish to edit.
In this example, we want to add a recipient to a TPM message. When the mask displays at first, we
are on the ETL page. To get to the TPM page, we need to type D (Down) past each next page and
type of message, until we arrive at the TPM page.
GI IATA POST DEPARTURE MESSAGE TABLE♦

Once you get to the TPM page, add the recipient teletype addresses and indicate that you have
finished working in the mask with a Y.

What you need to know when editing the IATA Message Control Table

• A teletype address has a maximum of seven characters. The entered city code will be
validated.
• The system displays only active message types, in alphabetical order. Inactive messages will
remain dormant and not displayable.
• Dormant IATA types of messages require programmer intervention to be added to the
Control Table by use of indicator switch.
• Only one IATA message appears on the mask at any one time. The messages are in
alphabetical order.
• Each mask only reflects the IATA messages applicable to the level of display. For example –
PTM and TPM messages are not applicable to Codeshare flights, and they will not show for
the Codeshare mask update entry (GC*IATA/AR*JK).
• In entries with two carrier codes, the first carrier code is the host carrier and an * precedes the
second carrier code or marketing carrier - example AR*JK.
• The sender teletype address does not display or need not be updated in the mask. The system
uses HDQKMxx as the default address internally, where xx is the host or operating carrier.
• If there is no Exceptions for a requested display, the word NONE will display under the
EXCEPTION header.
• Teletype addresses listed under the EXCEPTION area override the listed market or carrier
teletype address.

Sending a message manually

Outbound teletype messages are automatically sent at PDC time.


The IATA Message Control Table controls the outbound IATA messages that are produced either
automatically or manually
The messages that you receive or send are stored in the system.
The first send entry will send the entire batch of teletype messages for a specific flight.
Use the following entry to send batched outbound teletype messages:
Example entry:
GIATA/1234/02JUNBUE
Entry Explanation
GIATA Primary action code

/1234 Slash separator and flight number

/02JUN Slash separator and departure date

BUE Boarding point

The response will be MESSAGE SENT

Use this entry to manually send a specific teletype message. In this example, we are sending a FTL
message to a specific teletype address.
Example entry:
GFI/XX123/02JUNEZEMAD/FTL/MADODAR
Entry Explanation
GFI Primary action code

/XX123 Slash separator, airline code (optional) and flight number

/02JUN Slash separator and departure date

EZEMAD Boarding point and off point

/FTL Slash separator and Teletype message

/MADODAR Slash separator and teletype recipient address (if you do not specify an address, the
system will default to the address for that message in the table

To send multiple messages:


GFI/XX123/02JUNEZEMAD/FTL/IDM
The answer to a message sent is MESSAGE SENT

Sabre Airline Solutions Training Documentation Objectives


8 June 2012 131 Confidential and Proprietary Sabre Airline Solutions
If a message has not been created in the system, the error upon sending it manually is:
XXX TELETYPE MESSAGE DOES NOT EXIST (where XXX is the type of message)
The error does not display if you send batched messages.

Additional Information about manually sending messages

• You can choose to first display the message, then send it


• You can send a message without displaying it on the screen first
• You can manually send a message up until PDC. Once the flight is PDC’ed the system
will return an error if you send a message manually.
• Upon a Return after PDC, you can send the messages again, until a subsequent PDC
occurs.

Displaying message before sending it manually

You can display teletype messages during the flight initialization period, and when the flight status is
Open, Final, Closed or PDC.
Use this entry to display a teletype message (Inbound or Outbound) before sending it.
Example entry for an Inbound message:
GMSG123/02APRSFO/I/FTL/1
Entry Explanation
GMSG Primary action code

123 Flight number

/02APR Slash separator and departure date

SFO Boarding city

/I Slash separator and message type – O= Outbound // I=Inbound

/FTL Slash separator and type of message

GMSG0/O/PSM Display outbound PSM for dedicated flight

GMSG0/O/FTL/KE/1 Display targeted message FTL to carrier KE, part 1, for


dedicated flight

• Targeted TTY messages will display the appropriate carrier information.


• When you send a PTM, the information in the message varies, if the flight is a multi-stop flight.
In some instance, the display format requires both the departure and arrival cities. Example:
o Flight 123 goes HNL-AKL-SYD. In HNL, you have dedicated to the flight. The
arrival city is mandatory in the display format: GMSG0AKL/O/PTM
o Out of AKL, the displat PTM format would be GMSG0SYD/O/PTM
o If you have not dedicated to the flight, the entry must have both departure and
arrival cities: GMSG123/02APRHNLAKL/O/PTM/1 – or –
GMSG123/02APRAKLSYD/O/PTM/1
o The response to the display format is the message and its content, as requested,
out of the requested departure city.

Weight and Balance Messages

LDM, CPM, and UWS are messages generated by the Load Manager application.
LDM = Load Distribution Message, or Load Manager generated Messages
CPM = Container / Pallet Distribution Message (for cargo load)
UWS = Unit Weight Signal
Load Manager does not capture or store inbound TTY messages.

Tha IATA Message Control table will store and display the above messages.
The UWS message is used for Load Planning purposes and can only be displayed at a transit point of
a multi-leg flight. Using the display message functionality, you can display the message and print it.
The aircraft loading team or dispatcher can use the UWS message to load the aircraft correctly at the
transit point.

Flight History Log

For each teletype message sent, an entry is logged in the Flight History.
Examples:

ESV Tables - Overview

The Enhanced Synchronization of VCRs (ESV) provides your airline a mechanism to identify a
Passenger Name Record (PNR) that has had changes to the itinerary or passenger name that may
require an additional collection of funds.
The ESV process requires the use of Automated Exchange and Refunds (AER). Basically, ESV
attempts to keep each flight segment and corresponding coupon associated at all times.
The sync condition of the PNR is dependent on whether or not the VCR matches the name and
itinerary in the PNR.
A PNR with out-of-sync condition shows a banner at the top right corner with one of the following
text:
PNR MODIFIED – CHECK NAME
PNR MODIFIED – CHECK ITINERARY
PNR MODIFIED – CHECK NAME AND ITINERARY

An out-of-sync PNR is placed on a queue - usually queue city XTM, and queue number 450 – 454.
Note The PNR will NOT queue if any flight segment in the PNR is for today. Airport personnel
will need to take care of such a PNR on day of departure. The passenger may be inhibited from
check-in until the ticket is reissued or the agent decides to override the check-in inhibit.

The following two tables are used in the ESV process:


• Irregular Operations Reason Code Table.
o The decision to override an out-of-sync (ETO) status must refer to a reason code
– which is defined in the Irregular Operations Reason Code table.
o The code used will be recorded in the 5H- field of the PNR, will display on the
passenger lists, and will also be captured in the Irregular Operations Override
report.
• ESV Exception Rules Table.
o You can define rules in the table that would keep a PNR in sync (ETI) if these
rules were met.
o The rules refer to six areas: Status code (STCO), Frequent Traveler (FQTV),
AAA City (AAAC), Class of service (COSV), Country code (CTRY), and Ticket
Fee (TKTF).
The next section will explain the Irregular Operations Code table in more details. For complete
information on ESV and the ESV Exception Rules table, please see the lesson ESV Exception Table
on the portal.

Irregular Operations Reason Code Table

The Irregular Operations (IR) Reason Code Table provides preset specific reason codes for those
overrides most commonly used by your carrier. Your airport employees use these codes when adding
an IR edit to a passenger or to a flight to override an out-of-sync condition.
The reason code table is an airline maintained table, which controls the override reasons that:
• Display in the 5H- field of the PNR.
• Display on the SabreSonic Check-In passenger lists.
• Are reflected in the Irregular Ops Override Report.
3rd party ground handling is supported by providing a reason code table for the handled carrier. The
3rd Party carrier code must be defined in your airline file. Contact Customer Service to add a 3rd party
carrier.

Creating/Deleting a Reason Code

Reason codes are applicable to both Flight and Passenger IR edits. The carrier code, either your
carrier or a carrier defined in your airline file, is mandatory when adding or deleting reason codes.
Updating the Reason Code table requires the following:
EPR keywords: FSGAGT
Duty code: ‡ (the Cross-of-Lorraine)
Use the following entry to add an Irregular Operation Reason Code in the Table:
GC/IRC/U0/MX/MECHANICAL CANCEL

ESV and the Airline Serving Airport Table

The SabreSonic Check-In Airline Serving Airport Table (ASA) controls the ESV functionality for
each AAA city. The ASA table contains a field titled “PNR BANNER INHIBIT CKI”. When you
set this field to Y, check-in is inhibited if an ETO indicator is associated to a single passenger in the
PNR.
