Study Notes
Flight Information Formats
- Formats for displaying flight information vary based on the requirement and date.
- For today’s flight information, use: 2(airline code)(flight number) (e.g., 2CO35).
- For future flight information, the format is: 2(airline code)(flight number)/(date of departure) (e.g., 2IB6251/2AUG).
- To include boarding and off points, the format becomes: 2(airline code)(flight number)/(date)(boarding point)(off point) (e.g., 2NH145/20APRHNDKIX).
Connectivity Tags in Sabre
- Connectivity tags provide communication methods between Sabre and airlines.
- /E indicates availability for Electronic Ticketing.
- /DC(carrier code) allows seamless data transmission from the airline's reservation system to Sabre.
- /DCA(carrier code) provides true availability within the Sabre system as if the user is in the airline's reservation system.
Cursor Definition
- A cursor is a blinking character on the Sabre screen showing where the next typed character will appear.

Signing In and Out of Sabre
- Sign in using a generic password, which will become your current passcode after the first login.
- To change the passcode, enter the current passcode, input the new passcode, and press enter.
- The passcode remains hidden for security purposes.
Married Segments
- Married segments are linked segments that must be handled together in the system.
- To cancel a married connection, use a single command (e.g., X3/4) to cancel both segments simultaneously.
- Inserting an air segment between married segments will trigger an error.
Cancelling and Rebooking Segments
- Cancel higher-numbered segments first when using separate entries.
- Commands for cancellation and rebooking:
- Cancel and sell from city pair availability: X(segment number)‡(sell entry) (e.g., X2‡01Y1).
- Cancel and rebook for a new date: X(segment selection)‡00(new date) (e.g., X3‡0014JUL).
- Cancel and rebook by flight number: X(segment number)‡0(long sell entry) (e.g., X1‡0AA113SEPJFKLAXNN1).
Sending Messages to Carriers
- To send a general message to a carrier: 3OSI (airline code) (free text) (e.g., 3OSI MX HONEYMOON TRIP).
- For messages to specific passengers, add the name field number: 3OSI (airline code) (free text)-(name field number) (e.g., 3OSI QF SPEAKS FRENCH ONLY-1.2).
- Transmit information specifically to American Airlines using: 4OSI (free text) (e.g., 4OSI 50 YEAR ANNIV TRIP).
Managing GFAX and AFAX Fields
- Delete a single GFAX field: 3(line number)¤ (e.g., 32¤).
- For multiple GFAX fields, use: 3(line number),(line number)¤.
- To delete a range of GFAX fields, format as: 3(line number)-(line number)¤.
- Similar commands exist for AFAX fields, using the same syntax.
