ICAO Phonetic Alphabet : Airlines Industry b). Airline Code : Hotels, Travel Agency, Operations, Restaurants, Guides c). Country Code or Other : Non-Specifically, General or Etc.

Amadeus uses codes to represent locations, companies and equipment in the entries that you use in Amadeus and in the displays that are returned to you. Therefore, you need to be able to interpret the codes you see and use.
The airline industry uses a system that identifies each airport and city with a unique three-letter code. Each airline is identified by a unique two-character code. With these codes, which are administered by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) and the International Standards Organization (ISO), you can identify cities, airports and airlines. For more information, see HE ENCODE or HE DECODE.

Here we describe the functionality of Amadeus Air, its displays and the options you have to customize your requests. There are three types of displays in the Air module: Availability Display An Amadeus availability display shows all flights with at least one seat available for sale or waitlist, based on the transaction code and parameters you use to request the display
Schedule Display An Amadeus schedule display shows all flights and classes operated by all airlines that submit schedule information to Amadeus. Timetable Display An Amadeus timetable is a display of flights operating during a specified one week period. A timetable display shows all flights operating over a seven- day period for a given city pair. If you do not specify a date, the system uses the current date.
The display contains flights of all airlines for which schedule information is submitted to Amadeus. You can also display the flights of airlines that do not have a sales agreement with Amadeus. Timetable displays do not show classes of service; therefore, you cannot sell seats directly from this display. HELP PAGE: HE TN Flights are ordered in the same hierarchy as for availability displays. Working with the Timetable Displays

They are: General Remark (RM) Confidential Remark (RC) Itinerary Remark (RIR) General Remark You use the general remark element to enter remarks in a PNR. Any Amadeus user that has access to the PNR can read the general remarks.

60 Currently the US, Canadian and certain other customs API (Advanced Passenger Information) programs require airlines to submit Passport, Visa and flight information to customs. Today, this can be handled in the PNR with the SSR PSPT. The rest of the information can be collected by the airlines at check-in time. However, US customs has also requested airlines to send additional data, including destination address in the US, and additional information concerning travel documents. In order to support these additional APIS data requirements within reservation systems an IATA industry standard has defined 3 new SSRS (DOCS, DOCO, and DOCA).
61 To create an SSR containing NON-APIS passport information , must use the approved IATA format. SRPSPT BAHK1-123456-GB-24FEB45-LEWIS/EDWARD MR-M-H.FREETEXT/P1 SSR For Passport Information (Non-APIs)

81 Amadeus Queues gives airlines, travel agencies and providers the ability to send and receive PNRs that require action and to send and receive messages. Using queues you can communicate with other offices and organize the workload in your own office by accessing and creating queues for the different tasks you have to perform. PNRs can require action for the following reasons: Confirmation of segments, services, options or seats from the waitlist Change of responsible office Change of flight schedule Change in the ticketing arrangement Expiration of a ticketing time limit Changes in a group PNR
82 : 1. The Amadeus queue bank is divided into 2 types of queues : 1. Special Queues Divided into categories only 2. Dual Queues Divided into categories and date ranges PNRs can require action for the following reasons: Confirmation of segments, services, options or seats from the waitlist Change of responsible office Change of flight schedule Change in the ticketing arrangement Expiration of a ticketing time limit Changes in a group PNR
83
84 The queue system sorts PNRs and messages into three areas Queue Numbers are assigned automatically by the system. They correspond to the type of action required in the PNR. Queue Categories are a sub-division that divide PNRs in the same queue corresponding to the exact action required in the PNR. Date Ranges divide PNRs in the same queue and category according to the date the action is required. You can customize your queue bank. The categories can be deleted or increased and the date ranges can be deleted or changed accordingly. You can also delete an entire queue if it is not need by your office. Queue 0, 97 and the delay queue cannot be deleted. Although not mandatory, it is recommended that you also have queues 1 and 3.
85 The following queue bank is automatically activated for travel agencies: Queue no Name Type 0 General Special 1 Confirmation Dual 2 Waitlist Clearance Dual 3 Options Special 4 Responsibility Change Special 5 Rates Special 7 Schedule Change Dual 8 Ticketing/Time Limit Dual 9 Other Airline Control Dual 12 Expired TKTL Special

Queue Category Explanation 1 0 Confirmation - (default category) 1 Confirmation – Air 2 Confirmation – Hotel 3 Confirmation – Car 4 Confirmation – Tour 5 Confirmation – General 6 Confirmation - Special Services
89 The categories of dual queues are divided into four date ranges. The date ranges divide each category into four sections. When your queue bank is activated, the date ranges are determined by the system as follows: Date Dates Covered Example D1 Today plus two days 01SEP - 03SEP D2 Three to five days, from current date 04SEP - 06SEP D3 Six to eight days, from current date 07SEP - 09SEP D4 Nine days and beyond, from current date 10SEP onwards Here is an example of a queue with four date ranges: 1437 21JAN QUEUE....MADUL2410.......Q/TTL...ADDS...LQC...IW Q 1.CONFO ..23JAN-26JAN-29JAN. >

98 For Help: HE FARES, GP DIS Amadeus Fares and Pricing is a computerized air travel pricing system. Its database stores millions of public and private fares for hundreds of different providers. It can construct an unlimited number of fares through a dynamic add-on processing facility The Amadeus fares and pricing entries allow you to: Display fares Price an itinerary Request fare rules and conditions Request currency conversions Calculate mileage for a route of city pairs
99 Amadeus fares and pricing entries are divided into two types of transactions: Fare Quote FQ The Fare Quote transactions display information based on the data contained in an entry. No PNR is required for these entries. Itinerary Pricing FX The Itinerary Pricing transactions price a specific PNR itinerary. A PNR must be present when these codes are used, or a PNR is created s a result of the transaction. Below is an example of an International fare display request from Kuwait to London on BA Fare Quote Display (FQD) Entry
