ATPCO Checklist PARTNERING FOR SUCCESS INTERLINE, CODE SHARE, AND ALLIANCES ATPCO Checklist Version E1 Updated 5 February 2019 © 2019 ATPCO. All rights reserved. atpco.net Partnering for Success ATPCO Checklist ATPCO Checklist This checklist is intended as a guide for the types of data you may need to code to achieve the intentions set forth in your interline and/or code share agreements. 1. Reservation Booking Designators (RBD) Reservation Booking Designators, also known as booking codes, are updated in Chart 1 or Chart 2. They are used to align with inventory controls. In an SPA (Special Prorate Agreement) agreement, many times RBDs may be specified that indicate the applicable RBD to use when booking other airlines’ flights. Concurrence granted use: Chart 1 No concurrence granted use: Chart 2 2. Fare by Rule Fares If you choose to file fare markets to new destinations from an agreement, one option is to use Fare by Rule. Consider which type of fares you are using: Specified fares Calculated fares 3. US/CA Fares If you choose to file fare markets to additional destinations as a US/CA carrier, use US/CA fares. If you are in a code share agreement: Specify operating carriers in Flight Application (Category 4). 4. International Fares If you choose to file fare markets to new destinations from the agreement, one option is to use International fares. 5. Add-on Fares Add-on fares allow you to create new markets that link to existing International fares. Add-ons can be used to create new markets that either you or your partner operates. Modify Fare Class Application to allow add-on fares to link to international fares. 6. Branded Fares If you use Branded Fares and you enter into an agreement for additional destinations, ensure your branded fares incorporate the additional fares. Ensure your partners have granted concurrence in Optional Services for you to display their services. 1 ATPCO Checklist Partnering for Success 7. Routings Ensure you and the other carrier are included in the route map for locations where each carrier may travel. For a code share, you can specify different operating carriers in Flight Application (Category 4). 8. Rules – Flight Application If flight application is coded with your carrier code, consider the other carrier you interline with on your fare. 9. Rules – Stopovers Consider allowing the stopover to be on either your carrier or another carrier who can travel into or out of the stopover point. Ensure that you allow the same number, or greater number, of transfers than stopovers. 10. Rules – Transfers If transfers are coded as “online transfers,” consider allowing “interline transfers.” If carrier codes and/or geographic locations are coded, consider whether to include other carriers and locations where transfers may occur. Ensure that you allow the same number, or greater number, of transfers than stopovers. 11. Rules – Combinations Code End-on-End (104) combinations if you permit your carrier fares to combine with another carrier fares that are shown separately on a single ticket. Code Open Jaws (101), Circle Trips 2 (102), and/or Circle Trips 2+ (103) if you permit your fares to combine with other carrier fares to create round-trip, open-jaw, or circle trip itineraries. 12. Rules – Sales Restrictions If your agreement is specific to a point of sale, indicate that information in Sales Restrictions (Category 15). If ticket issuance is restricted to your airline ticket stock only, consider whether another carrier in your agreement should be allowed to issue a ticket selling your fares on their ticket stock. 13. Ticket Endorsements If Ticket Endorsements need to be created based on the agreement, add the endorsement restriction to this category. 14. Carrier-Imposed Fees If you interline, consider whether you allow other validating carriers to collect your fees. 15. Optional Services – Baggage Rules The marketing carrier whose baggage data is selected should ensure their data supports the itinerary. 2 .

THE ANTITRUST IMPLICATIONS OF COMPUTER RESERVATIONS SYSTEMS (CRS's) DEREK SAUNDERS THE PASSAGE of the Airline Deregulation Act' dramat- ically altered the airline industry. Market forces, rather than government agencies, 2 began to regulate the indus- try. The transition, however, has not been an easy one. Procedures and relationships well suited to a regulated in- dustry are now viewed as outdated, onerous, and even anticompetitive. The current conflict over carrier-owned computer res- ervation systems (CRS's) represents one instance of these problems.3 The air transportation distribution system re- lies heavily on the use of CRS's, particularly since deregu- lation and the resulting increase in airline activity. 4 One I Pub.

  • Airline Passengers and Lighters FAQ's, November 2013
    Airline Passengers and Lighters Frequently Asked Questions The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) enforces the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) Hazardous Materials Regulations in aviation. This includes safety rules on how airline passengers can carry lighters. The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) enforces security rules about what passengers can carry on the aircraft. The FAA guidance below considers both DOT and TSA rules for passengers carrying lighters. Q1. What type of lighter can I bring onto the aircraft? A1. Under DOT rules (49 CFR 175.10), when traveling on a commercial airline, you can bring one (1) lighter that uses a flammable gas (butane) or that uses a flammable liquid that is absorbed in a lining (Zippo-type). The following restrictions apply: • For safety reasons, permitted lighters must be in your carry-on or on your person (in your pocket), not in checked baggage. See Q2. regarding special travel containers that allow lighters in checked baggage. • Under TSA regulations, torch lighters (a.k.a. jet lighters, blue flame lighters, cigar lighters) are forbidden in your carry-on or on your person. TSA rules also prohibit lighters that look like guns or other weapons. • Containers of lighter fluid or gas (butane) are forbidden in carry-on and checked baggage. • Micro torches, chef torches, utility torches, etc., are not considered lighters and are forbidden in carry-on and checked baggage. Fuel for such torches is also forbidden in carry-on and checked baggage. Q2. Is there any exception to the “one lighter only” rule or the “no torch lighters” rule? A2. You can bring up to two (2) additional lighters—including torch lighters—in your checked baggage when you use DOT-approved airtight travel containers for lighters.
