Dear Customers,
GO7 offers the capability for airlines to engage in code-sharing using the GO7 PSS.
To clarify the basics:
- Marketing Airline: The airline making the booking.
- Operating Carrier: The airline on which the booking is made.
- To set up this functionality, cooperation from both airlines is required.
The operating carrier should:
Establish an agency with an adequate credit limit. Since bookings from the marketing airline will be made through this agency, it must have sufficient credit to book flights. Enable LDS settings. Follow the guidelines for setting up the LDS entity, ensuring that the LDS entity name matches the name of the airline. Refer here for more details.
The marketing carrier should:
Set up code share records. Navigate to the "Distribution" module and access the "Code share" section. Select the appropriate class combinations and destination combinations.
Once this setup is complete, the marketing airline should be able to see the operating carrier flights.
Important operational information
- Bookings on the marketing carrier would be charged in Rack fare
- Bookings on the operating carrier would appear as charged in Net fares if commission applied on the agency of the marketing airline.
- If a booking is amended or ticket cancelled on the operating carrier, it will not reflect on the marketing carrier.
- Once the marketing carrier issues a ticket, ticket must be cancelled on the operating carrier manually due to cancellation charges.
