The Name Field is a mandatory PNR data field for the storage of the passenger(s) name in relation to the itineary reserved.
Each name item must contain at least two, but not more than 69 characters number in party.
Each PNR may contain up to 255 names, however for ten or more passengers group procedures must be followed.
The PNR name fields are utilized during production of tickets,itinerary/inovices, advanced seat assignment, and boarding pass issuance therefore extreme care must be used to assure accuracy.
Each name item is automatically numbered in the PNR.
The number in party is determined based on the number of slashes (/) separating first names/initials and/or titles. The exception is on corporate PNRs and divide PNR entries where the number in party must be included in the name field entry.
Once the original PNR is created and an end transaction has been performed, a name change or deletion is allowed, but no additional names can be added to the PNR. A separate PNR must be created for the additional party.
The name field may contain a maximum of 126 characters.

NOTES:
The end item (#) is used to separate individual surnames in the name field entry.
The name field entry may be combined with all PNR fields except the itinerary field by the use of the end item #, including end transaction and queueing functions.
First names or initials with/without titles are mandatory. The first two characters of the surname must be two alphas.
The name field item number is optional when changing the name in a single name field PNR.
Changes to first names must be done in numerical order within the same item.
When OAL SSR seat items exist, 4RXO must be entered prior to the name change function.
When changing multiple items and some of the associated PTCs in a
name field, use a slash (/) for the PTCs that are not being
changed. Current PTC is assumed if it
is not changed.
Some airlines do not allow name changes. Please check with each OAL for their name change policy.
Do *not* delete the name and re-enter it. Use the one step process for changing a name.
When a name is deleted and re-entered it disassociates itself from the ETR. Once the name is changed reissue a new ticket.
For information regarding infant name fields, refer to the Infant PNR section.
When creating a name field do not use the abbreviation chd - for
child. the abbrevation of chd should not be used in the name field
but added as an osi. For example:
-MASON/LARRY/RACHEL/AMY*2ADT/C06
3OSIYY 1CHD 1MASON/AMY
When creating name fields on reservations for United Airlines (UA) if the name field exceeds 55 characters, no positive acknowledgement record locator is returned from the carrier.
Deletion of name items is allowed only when one of the following
conditions exist:
a. When creating a PNR and more names are
entered than the actual number of seats requested.
b. When an itinerary is being cancelled for
one or more passsengers, but not all passengers
on a confirmed itinerary in the same PNR. To reduce number of seats
being held in a confirmed
PNR. Refer to the Reduce Number in
Party ($) section.
When deleting more than one name field, delete in reverse numerical order.
The surnames are renumbered in the PNR after the delete function is performed.
Name field entries must contain a Passenger Type Code (PTC) for each first name or initial in each surname. Each PTC is either system placed or entered by the user in the name field entry. PTCs are used to ensure the correct fare application to each passenger in the name field.
PTCs must be entered in the same sequence as the initials or titles.
A maximum of four different PTCs are allowed in each surname entry.
PTCs may be grouped to simplify the entry. The number of PTCs must
equal the number in the name entry and the PTC placement must apply
to the appropriate initial/title.
**Does Not Apply** to World Group and Group (C/) PNRs, or car/hotel PNRs if no air segments are present.

XX - SURNAM CHANGE NOT PERMITTED XX - GIVEN NAME CHANGE NOT PERMITTTED IF FQTV EXISTS |
NOTES:
A KRN table is created for participating airlines only.
With multiple airlines the most restrictive parameter applies to the PNR.
An itinerary with multiple participating airlines, may have multiple error responses. When this occurs, the error responses are returned in the same order that the airlines appear in the itinerary.
Tour or cruise line source PNRs are exempt when the tour or cruise line source segment(s) are the only segments in the PNR.
Prior to initial ET, the KRN*I entry can be made to verify if any name change restrictions apply.
If any segment in an itinerary is a code share flight, the marketing
airline code is used to determine if any restrictions apply.
For example: /NW 4896Y 24AUG
LASSFO SS1 1227A 153A/O$HP2878Y/
In the above example, Northwest Airlines name change restrictions
apply. HP name restrictions *do not* apply.
Customized Name Data (CND) consists of two parts:
1. CND, which prints on documents (maximum of 29 alpha/numeric characters).
2. Customized Name Comments, which transmits accounting information (maximum
of 114

Customized name data appears in history after it has been changed or deleted.
If a surname and/or first name is changed and customize name data exists for that surname and/or first name the following warning tag will be displayed: CUSTOMIZED NAME DATA EXISTS - VERIFY DATA
You cannot change a name and delete customized name data in the same entry.
End and copy entries are applicable.
Customized comment is supported by all interface levels.
The Phone Field is a mandatory PNR data field for the storage of phone

There are eight ticket arrangements that can be entered into the Ticketing Field.
A Fare Type Code may be included in the ticketing field entries. Fare
type codes ensure the correct fare application for the itinerary. The
fare type codes are entered immediately following the date in the ticketing
entry and is separated by an astersik (*).
If a fare type code is omitted from the ticketing field entry, Worldspan
assumes excusion fare (EX) is the fare type
to be used.
The entry of ticketing identifier codes TAT, TAW, TAS, TRL, TRH, or TAX automatically places the PNR on the queue of the prime phone field city on date specified in the entry. It is the responsibility of each customer to monitor and service these queues daily.
The participating airline route for rate entry used as an option
to queue the PNR to the participating carriers rate desk is entered
immediately following the fare type
code. Fare type codes and the participating carrier route for rate
entry are separated by a dash (-).
The servicing carrier entry used as an option is entered immediately following the fare type code and/or the participating carrier route for rate desk pricing option. Fare type codes and the servicing carrier codes are separated by a dash (-).
The servicing airline option enables the automatic printing of the issuing airlines name and airline number in the issued by area of the ticket.
The date specified in a ticketing field cannot be prior to todays date,
nor after the date of the first flight in the face of the PNR. The ticketing
field entry may be combined with all PNR field entries except the itinerary
field by the use of the end item (#) key.
It may also be combined with end transaction functions.
Ticket at Will places the PNR on the will call ticketing queue for a specific date.

NOTES:
As long as a PNR contains a T/ ticketing
field changes made to the itinerary are not passed on to the ticketing
record. This means that tickets generated while the ticketing field
is T/ could incorrectly reflect the actual
itinerary as shown in the PNR. To insure that the
ticket record properly reflects the itinerary either force the PNR
through repricing or create a new active ticketing field prior to
generating the ticket.
Data after the oblique / is free form. since spaces are not recognized in this field items/words should be separated by a period or dash to maintain clarity. Maximum number of characters is 66.
Free form text area is optional.
Ticketing Time Limit allows for a mandatory ticketing field entry in Prepaid PNRs or when an airline will be ticketing the passenger.
