Creating ticketing date

Creating a ticketing element

TRANSACTION CODE	ACTION IDENTIFIER	DATE
TK	TL	15MAY

Shown above is an entry used to create a PNR ticketing element. The purpose of this entry is record the date on which the tickets should be issued. This date is usually determined by two factors: the purchase date required by the fare and the date the passenger wishes to commit to and pay for the reservation. This information may not be known at the time the reservation is first created, but Amadeus still requires the element to be present in the PNR.

The entry consists of the transaction code "TK" for "ticketing", followed by the ticketing action identifier "TL" for "time limit" and the date on which tickets are to be issued.

In application, the entry shown above would create a ticketing element in a PNR indicating that the tickets are to be issued on 15 May

 

TRANSACTION CODE	ACTION IDENTIFIER
TK	OK

When the tickets are to be issued immediately, for example when the fare requires ticketing at the time the reservation is made, the above format is used.

The entry consists of the ticketing element transaction code "TK", followed by the ticketing action identifier "OK".

In application, this entry would create a ticketing element in a PNR, indicating immediate ticketing.
