AFAIK DL doesn't publish XBAS for GDS

I think WorldSpan users can do it.

Am I the only Aviation/Travel Nerd that asks the airport reps if I can a look at their reservation system and start chatting how it is similar or different to our GDS's? And then pull out my laptop and show them Sabre and Amadeus? 8)
Does anyone find interesting how the PNRs look at the airlines end, especially when there is an award ticket or upgrade? How they price it etc?

Booked a payable seat on AF. Exit seats (extra legroom) are 6500 miles, seat on the upper level (A380) are 12000. So an exit seat on the upper level is half the price of a regular

That's not BYOK. Do you know what BYOK stands for? Especially the O part?
