Should I use SR TKNE 123-4567890/P1 or SR TKNM 123-4567890/P1 or or SR TKNA 123-4567890/P1

Anything to be done to indicate that the e-ticket is for an infant since P1 is an adult?

Thanks for your help.

Would anyone based in Israel be kind enough to provide a little info via PM on the different plans/costs of GDS/LDS options here? It would be for TIDS bookings (no flight ticketing, unless someone has leads for a piggyback opportunity...).

TIA!

On Sabre


When I want to hold a full flight, is there any short commands I could do? Or have to go thru class by class?

In Amadeus there is forsure there something that you could do it

Any recommendation for a service / utility that you can import itineraries to and it will monitor and send you notifications for any schedule changes made by the airline anytime (like ticket booked 10 months in advance, and schedule change happened 2 months later)?

Trip-it pro only starts 3 days in advance of travel. Tripcase starts 24 in advance of travel. Airline email alerts are unreliable.

Need something better then GDS queues (as bookings are done in many different systems, some of which are shared with other agencies).

Eliteitinerary sends schedule change notifications? Tripcase only starts notifications 24h before travel.

They all do. The question is, how far in advance of travel does it start?

What's the earliest in advance of travel have you seen CMT alerts?

In Sabre, is there a way to long sell more then 3 flight segments at once?

Pasting anything more then 3 lines, drops everything after the 3rd.

Answer is no. Found in the documentation:

Does anyone know how the segment incentives in Amadeus work? Does it have to be specified in my contract anything about it in order to get it.
You can say what you think when you think what you say.

Yes,you would know if you have it. Its supposed to be in the contract.
When you open the account, they usually give you a 12 month contract without any benefits, (unless you prove them that you have lots of segments) once they renew your contract, they will look in to your segments and give you the monthly price and incentives according to the amount of segments you delivered
