ARTICLE II.   GENERAL RESPONSIBILITIES OF PARTICIPATING CARRIER

 

2.1.          Participating Carrier will at its own cost coordinate its reservations services with the WORLDSPAN System to provide WORLDSPAN Users as advantageous, timely and uniform services as Participating Carrier provides through any other CRS.  Such services shall include, but are not limited to, passenger information, schedule data, interim schedule change data, fare data, fare quotations, ticketing and procedural information.  Participating Carrier will provide WORLDSPAN Users with any improvements, enhancements or functions related to Participating Carrier’s reservation services as offered to users of any other CRS.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Participating Carrier’s obligations in this Article 2.1 shall not require it to provide services for WORLDSPAN Users which cannot be provided due to technical limitations in Participating Carrier’s system, so long as such technical limitations also prevent Participating Carrier from providing the services for the users of any Third Party System.

 

2.2.          Participating Carrier will promptly provide WORLDSPAN with all revisions to its information concerning services provided to passengers including, but not limited to, interim schedule change data, fare data, fare quotations, ticketing and procedural information and such other information that may be included in the WORLDSPAN System.  Participating Carrier will provide WORLDSPAN Users as advantageous, timely and uniform fares and fare inventory classes as Participating Carrier provides through any other CRS.

 

2.3.          Participating Carrier shall not close its flights to WORLDSPAN Users on a less favorable basis than it uses to close flights to users of any Third Party System.  Participating Carrier will process all WORLDSPAN message activity on a priority and current basis.  Unless otherwise agreed, Participating Carrier will accept sales by WORLDSPAN Users to a maximum of four (4) seats per transaction until receipt by WORLDSPAN of a flight/class/segment AVS closing message.  Participating Carrier will use the ARINC/SITA address “HDQRI1P” in addressing all AVS messages for PARS; “HDQRIDL” for DATAS II; and/or such other address(es) as WORLDSPAN may specify from time to time.

 

2.4.          Participating Carrier shall ensure that its reservation system substantially complies with the interline procedures and message format set forth in SIIP and AIRIMP and any amendments thereto.  Participating Carrier will establish a special reject queue at its teletype reject system in which reservations made through the WORLDSPAN System that are not automatically processed by Participating Carrier will be handled on a priority basis.  Participating Carrier will treat any rejected messages originating from the WORLDSPAN System with the same speed, care and priority given rejected messages from any other CRS.  Participating Carrier will review rejected messages and cooperate with WORLDSPAN in the development of new approaches where volume is justified.

 

2.5.          For any passenger with a Transportation Document issued through the WORLDSPAN System and bearing an “OK” status, Participating Carrier will accept such passenger for travel, even if no record of the passenger’s reservation exists in Participating Carrier’s system and denied boarding compensation might have to be paid.

 

5



 

2.6.          Participating Carrier will not send unable to sell or unable to confirm (US/UC) messages on any Booking more than twelve (12) hours following receipt by Participating Carrier.

 

2.7.          For all Transportation Documents and other documents (whether used, voided or subsequently refunded) where Participating Carrier is the validating carrier, Participating Carrier agrees that any credit or debit card authorization obtained by or through WORLDSPAN will be treated by Participating Carrier as if the authorization had been obtained directly by Participating Carrier.  WORLDSPAN shall exercise reasonable business efforts to obtain such authorizations in accordance with the procedures specified by Participating Carrier and by or on behalf of the credit or debit card issuer.  Participating Carrier shall provide WORLDSPAN with all information reasonably required to perform this service including, but not limited to, the identity of the cards that may be accepted, floor limits and any special instructions communicated by the credit or debit card issuer to Participating Carrier.

 

2.8.          WORLDSPAN may, at its discretion, magnetically encode Transportation Documents and other documents validated on Participating Carrier.  In the event that Participating Carrier desires to arrange for magnetic coding of such documents, Participating Carrier acknowledges that it will be obligated to pay WORLDSPAN its standard charge to be established from time to time for such service.

 

2.9.          Participating Carrier hereby grants ticketing authority through the WORLDSPAN System for its transportation services to all WORLDSPAN Users worldwide who hold validation authority, or who are authorized through whatever means to issue Transportation Documents, (whether manually or automatically through any CRS) on its behalf.  Participating Carrier authorizes WORLDSPAN Users to automatically validate Transportation Documents on its behalf in any territory where, at any time during the time of this Agreement, Participating Carrier is or becomes a member of any neutral ticketing scheme or program in which WORLDSPAN is directly or indirectly a System Provider.  Participating Carrier shall promptly execute all agreements or other authorizations specified by the local neutral ticketing scheme or program which are necessary to implement, effect or acknowledge such authority for WORLDSPAN and WORLDSPAN Users or as reasonably requested by WORLDSPAN.  Nothing in this Article 2.9, however, shall be construed to obligate Participating Carrier to become a member of a local neutral ticketing scheme or program.

 

2.10.        Participating Carrier agrees that it will not discriminate against or disfavor in any manner whatsoever any WORLDSPAN User on account of that User’s selection, possession or use of a WORLDSPAN System.

 

2.11.        Participating Carrier agrees promptly to pay WORLDSPAN all amounts due pursuant to this Agreement, and all agreements, supplements, addenda, schedules and exhibits now or hereafter completed pursuant to this Agreement, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim.

ARTICLE III.   FARE COMPUTATION

 

3.1.          WORLDSPAN shall use reasonable efforts to obtain from industry suppliers the fares and fare rules which apply to Participating Carrier’s flights.  If WORLDSPAN is unable to obtain such information, then upon request from WORLDSPAN, or if the information is inaccurate, incomplete or not timely delivered, Participating Carrier agrees promptly to supply the information to WORLDSPAN.  Participating Carrier will provide the information on properly formatted magnetic tape or other media and format mutually agreed upon by the parties.  Any changes or revisions to such fares or fare rules shall thereafter be timely submitted to WORLDSPAN by Participating Carrier using the agreed upon medium and format.  Participating Carrier shall not discriminate against or disfavor WORLDSPAN, as compared to any Third Party System, in the timing, availability, delivery or any other matter associated with such fares or fare rules.

 

3.2.          If Participating Carrier elects to provide pricing assistance to any user of a Third Party System in any country or territory, it will provide similar assistance to all WORLDSPAN Users in that same country or territory.  Participating Carrier acknowledges that to provide such pricing assistance to WORLDSPAN Users, Participating Carrier must lease from WORLDSPAN, by separate agreement, the necessary equipment and services to enable it to provide this pricing assistance.  Participating Carrier shall be solely responsible for, and assumes all liability with respect to, the services and fares provided by Participating Carrier pursuant to this Section 3.2.

 

ARTICLE IV.   GENERAL RESPONSIBILITIES OF WORLDSPAN

 

4.1.          WORLDSPAN shall maintain, operate and provide the WORLDSPAN System in accordance with applicable CRS Rules.  WORLDSPAN shall provide Participating Carrier such services as agreed upon by the parties from time to time during the term of this Agreement in accordance with such CRS Rules and the Display Parameters then in effect.

 

4.2.          WORLDSPAN will use reasonable business efforts to ensure that the WORLDSPAN System complies with the interline reservations policies, procedures and message formats set forth in SIPP and AIRIMP, and any amendments thereto.  WORLDSPAN shall process all Bookings created by WORLDSPAN Users, and shall handle information relating to Participating Carrier, with the same care and timeliness as information of all other WORLDSPAN participating carriers and without regard to the identity of the carrier.  WORLDSPAN will review rejected messages and, where justified by volume, investigate methods of reducing such rejected messages.

 

4.3.          With regard to any display required by any applicable CRS Rules, WORLDSPAN will display Participating Carrier’s flights, and shall load information and fares on Participating Carrier’s flights, in the same manner and with the same timeliness as with any other participating carrier’s flights.  However, WORLDSPAN reserves the right, without waiver of any other right or remedy under this Agreement or otherwise, to suspend its obligations under this Article IV at any time that any Affiliated CRS fails to provide non-discriminatory display,

 

7



 

loading and distribution of the flights and services of, or otherwise discriminates against, any WORLDSPAN Carrier.

 

4.4.          WORLDSPAN shall provide, subject to any law, regulation, court order or contract regarding the disclosure of information, reasonable information to Participating Carrier to substantiate the charges to Participating Carrier pursuant to this Agreement.  For billing purposes, all Home Users shall be deemed to be a single location.

 

4.5.          WORLDSPAN shall maintain one or more facilities for the purpose of responding to Participating Carrier’s questions concerning the operation of, or any data within, the WORLDSPAN System.

 

4.6.          WORLDSPAN retains the right to enhance or modify, in whole or in part, the WORLDSPAN System at its discretion. Any enhancement or modification of the WORLDSPAN System will be offered to all WORLDSPAN participating carriers on a non-discriminatory basis; provided, however, that technical, equipment or human resource limitations may make it impractical or not feasible for WORLDSPAN to implement an enhancement or modification at the same time for all participating carriers.  In such case, WORLDSPAN will determine the order of implementation in its sole discretion.  The foregoing shall include, but is not limited to, the right of WORLDSPAN to migrate or include Participating Carrier, other WORLDSPAN participating carriers and WORLDSPAN Users in any new WORLDSPAN System.  Nothing herein shall be construed to require WORLDSPAN to develop or utilize any CRS in addition to or in lieu of either PARS or DATAS II.

 

4.7.          Participating Carrier agrees that it will notify WORLDSPAN if Participating Carrier has knowledge that any WORLDSPAN User is operating the WORLDSPAN System in an improper fashion such as, but not limited to, making speculative bookings in anticipation of demand, making false bookings, or making passive bookings when no corresponding reservation has been made in Participating Carrier’s system.  Upon receipt of such notice and confirmation of the matters described therein, or if WORLDSPAN discovers such improper use independent of information supplied by Participating Carrier, WORLDSPAN agrees that it will take such action as it deems reasonably necessary to correct the improper use of the WORLDSPAN System by the identified WORLDSPAN User.

ARTICLE X.   PAYMENT

 

10.1.        WORLDSPAN (or a WORLDSPAN Carrier acting on behalf of WORLDSPAN) shall invoice Participating Carrier each month covering all charges incurred during the previous month.  Participating Carrier agrees to pay WORLDSPAN all amounts due pursuant to this Agreement.  Subject to Article 10.5 below, Bookings will be invoiced in the month following the creation of the Booking, subject to credit for Cancellations during such month.  Each invoice, except as otherwise provided herein, shall be paid through the applicable ACH or IATA clearinghouse.  All invoices shall be paid in U.S. dollars. Participating Carrier agrees to execute and deliver any documents reasonably requested by WORLDSPAN, ACH or IATA regarding the settlement of funds as provided herein.

 

10.2.        In the event that WORLDSPAN elects to suspend services to Participating Carrier pursuant to this Agreement, then WORLDSPAN may, at its discretion, as a condition to reestablishment of the suspended service, require Participating Carrier to deliver to WORLDSPAN a cash deposit, or an irrevocable letter of credit or surety bond issued by a financial institution or surety acceptable to WORLDSPAN, in an amount deemed necessary by WORLDSPAN to secure an estimated two (2) months of charges pursuant to this Agreement.

 

10.3.        Participating Carrier agrees to pay for all Bookings made by WORLDSPAN Users on any of its Code Sharing Flights.  WORLDSPAN reserves the right to require any of Participating Carrier’s Code Sharing carriers to execute a separate agreement with WORLDSPAN to guarantee payment of the charges for Bookings on Code Sharing Flights.

 

10.4.        In the event that Participating Carrier believes that any amount charged to it by WORLDSPAN pursuant to this Agreement is inaccurate, then Participating Carrier shall provide WORLDSPAN with written notice within six (6) months of the date of the disputed WORLDSPAN invoice.  Such written notice shall include Participating Carrier’s explanation or reason for dispute, and agrees to pay any portion of the invoice that it does not dispute.  Such rejection will be processed by WORLDSPAN through the ACH or IATA clearing house, as appropriate, not later than six (6) months following receipt of Participating Carrier’s notice of dispute, in accordance with the appropriate manual of procedure unless otherwise agreed by both parties.  Final settlement of disputed amounts will be resolved by prompt negotiations between WORLDSPAN and Participating Carrier, and resulting payments, if any, will be made outside the clearing house within ten (10) days following receipt of a supplemental invoice.  Failure to advise WORLDSPAN of any dispute within six (6) months of the date of the invoice shall constitute a waiver by Participating Carrier of any alleged inaccuracy.

 

10.5.        Participating Carrier acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding the foregoing, fees for Bookings through DATAS II are currently invoiced following the month of departure of the flight and that Bookings through PARS are invoiced following the month that the Booking is created.  WORLDSPAN intends to change the time that DATAS II Bookings are invoiced and will provide Participating Carrier reasonable notice prior to implementing such change.

 

13



 

10.6.        In the event that Participating Carrier is not a member of either ACH or IATA or is denied the ability to pay WORLDSPAN amounts due pursuant to this Agreement through either the ACH clearing house or the IATA clearing house, then, and only then, WORLDSPAN shall invoice Participating Carrier and Participating Carrier shall pay WORLDSPAN as follows:

 

WORLDSPAN shall invoice to Participating Carrier following the end of the month in which charges become payable, which invoice shall be paid directly to WORLDSPAN within thirty (30) days after receipt.  Any payment not received by WORLDSPAN within such thirty (30) day period shall accrue interest at the rate of 1% per month or the highest amount permitted by law, whichever is less.  Participating Carrier will pay WORLDSPAN a deposit in an amount equal to the average estimated charges under this Agreement during a two month period, which WORLDSPAN may apply against any amount due WORLDSPAN under the Agreement that is not timely paid by Participating Carrier.  WORLDSPAN will refund to Participating Carrier the unused portion of the deposit upon termination of the Agreement.  Participating Carrier may not elect to apply the deposit to any obligation in lieu of any payment due under the Agreement.  All payments shall be made in U.S. dollars.

 

ARTICLE XI.   FORCE MAJEURE

ADDENDUM — SUPPLEMENTAL SERVICES ACCESSPLUS

 

THIS Addendum is by and between WORLDSPAN, L.P. (“WORLDSPAN”) and the Participating Carrier identified below.

 

WORLDSPAN and Participating Carrier have entered into a WORLDSPAN Participating Carrier Agreement (the “Agreement”).

 

WORLDSPAN desires to provide and Participating Carrier desires to participate in AccessPLUS.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1.             AccessPLUS Options.

 

WORLDSPAN currently provides two levels of AccessPLUS participation which are available to Participating Carriers: Direct Access and Direct Sell, providing certain functionality as described in Schedule A attached hereto. Participating Carrier may select either of the two levels of participation, provided, however, that Direct Sell can be chosen only if Participating Carrier is also a Direct Access participant.

 

Please initial below the desired level of AccessPLUS Participation:

 

PARS

 

DATAS II

 

 

BRA

 

BRA

 

A.  Direct Access only

BRA

 

N/A

 

B.  Direct Access and Direct Sell

(Available in PARS only)

 

2.             Responsibilities of Participating Carrier.

 

A.            Participating Carrier, at its sole cost and expense, agrees to permit WORLDSPAN Users to access information from Participating Carrier’s system through AccessPLUS. This includes, but is not limited to: (i) the schedule and availability display used by Participating Carrier’s reservations personnel; and (ii) functions of Participating Carrier’s system listed in Schedule A of this Addendum.

 

B.            Should Participating Carrier elect Direct Sell, Participating Carrier agrees to send a positive acknowledgement message including the PNR file address of Participating Carrier’s system upon receipt of a PARS Users’ booking message containing a “DK” action code.

 

C.            Participating Carrier agrees to allow installation of a direct and dedicated communications line between the WORLDSPAN System and Participating Carrier’s system.

 



 

Participating Carrier and WORLDSPAN shall share equally the charges for said communications line. Additionally, Participating Carrier agrees to acquire the appropriate hardware for use with Participating Carrier’s system to facilitate the operation of said communications line. Such hardware shall be provided by WORLDSPAN to Participating Carrier at WORLDSPAN’s prevailing rates and terms. Selection and ordering of the hardware and the direct and dedicated communications line shall be as mutually agreed upon by the parties. This mutual agreement may include the decision to use a comparable link via SITA.

 

D.            Should Participating Carrier elect Direct Access and Direct Sell, Participating Carrier agrees to send a response to sell message indicating inventory is decremented from Participating Carrier’s system prior to “end transaction” upon receipt of the Direct Sell booking message if the inventory requested is available. If the inventory is not available, Participating Carrier will immediately generate an unable to sell message and the WORLDSPAN Users may waitlist such segments when the waitlist is open.

 

E.             Participating Carrier will arrange for the processing of all WORLDSPAN User AccessPLUS booking messages on a priority and current basis. All AccessPLUS booked segments received by Participating Carrier’s system from WORLDSPAN (including those appended with the unique action codes “LK” and “DK”) will be automatically accepted and confirmed and no “US” or “UC” message will be generated.

 

F.             In those cases when the communications line between the WORLDSPAN System and Participating Carrier’s system is inoperable, booking messages will be rerouted via the facilities of ARINC or SITA, as mutually agreed upon. In such cases, when an “LK”, “DK” or “SS” booking cannot be electronically accepted by Participating Carrier’s inbound teletype message processing facility for automatic processing, or when an “LK”, “DK” or “SS” booking cannot be electronically accepted by Participating Carrier’s system via the communications line, Participating Carrier will accept passenger(s) for transportation on the same basis as though a reservation has been created and seat inventory adjusted even though overbooking may result therefrom and denied boarding compensation may be required, provided however, the foregoing is applicable only if: (i) the passenger’s ticket bears an “OK” status or (ii) Participating Carrier has not returned the booking to either WORLDSPAN or the original WORLDSPAN User within twelve (12) hours of the message transmission from the WORLDSPAN System; provided further, however, subclause (ii) shall not apply to “LK or “DK” bookings.

 

Should Participating Carrier’s inbound message processing facility be unable to recognize and accept “LK” and/or “DK” bookings, Participating Carrier shall, at its sole cost and expense, modify said inbound message processing facility to recognize and accept “LK” and/or “DK” bookings no later than ninety (90) days after the date of this Addendum.

 

G.            Participating Carrier shall provide help desk and such other technical support as may be reasonably necessary to serve WORLDSPAN Users.

 

H.            Participating Carrier agrees to give WORLDSPAN at least ninety (90) days’ prior written notice of any changes to Participating Carrier’s system which may affect the

 

2



 

AccessPLUS capability including, but not limited to, common language translation. Should changes to Participating Carrier’s programs require changes to AccessPLUS, Participating Carrier agrees to reimburse WORLDSPAN for the cost of such changes at WORLDSPAN’s then prevailing rates.

 

I.              Participating Carrier shall establish and operate its connection to AccessPLUS as defined in WORLDSPAN’s applicable technical/functional documentation, including support of WORLDSPAN’s communications protocol as mutually agreed upon.

 

J.             Participating Carrier shall complete the technical/functional documentation appropriate to the level of AccessPLUS participation selected and return it to WORLDSPAN within thirty (30) days of the date of this Addendum.

 

3.             Responsibilities of WORLDSPAN.

 

A.            WORLDSPAN shall provide Participating Carrier with appropriate technical/functional specifications for the selected level(s) of AccessPLUS participation.

 

B.            WORLDSPAN shall maintain and operate AccessPLUS, and shall cooperate with Participating Carrier in resolving any problems in the maintenance of the communications lines between the WORLDSPAN System(s) and Participating Carrier’s system.

 

C.            WORLDSPAN will provide WORLDSPAN Users with direct inquiry capability into Participating Carrier’s system to obtain real time information and system generated inquiries by means of AccessPLUS. For markets served by Participating Carrier, such schedule, availability, fare and flight information (as displayed in Participating Carrier’s system) will be provided to WORLDSPAN Users via common language translations where possible, subject to constraints and processing limitations of Participating Carrier’s system. However, in markets not served by Participating Carrier, the WORLDSPAN User will be advised that Participating Carrier does not provide service in the requested market. All PNR’s will be created, stored and modified in the WORLDSPAN System for transmission to Participating Carrier pursuant to industry standards and as further set forth herein.

 

D.            WORLDSPAN Users will be able to confirm reservations up to the number of seats reflected in the Participating Carrier’s system availability display when creating the PNR in the WORLDSPAN System.

 

4.             Joint Terms and Conditions.

 

A.            In the event that either Participating Carrier or WORLDSPAN experiences a system problem beyond its reasonable control, then either party shall have the right to inhibit AccessPLUS during the period of time that such problem exists. If such problem is a scheduled Participating Carrier system outage, then Participating Carrier shall notify WORLDSPAN as early in advance as possible. Participating Carrier shall use its best efforts to reinstate AccessPLUS capabilities as quickly as possible. If WORLDSPAN has a scheduled system

 

3



 

outage with AccessPLUS, WORLDSPAN will notify Participating Carrier in a reasonable advance amount of time. WORLDSPAN shall use its best efforts to reinstate AccessPLUS capabilities as quickly as possible.

 

B.            Each party agrees to devote resources sufficient to complete the programming necessary to implement AccessPLUS and will use its best efforts to implement AccessPLUS as indicated on Schedule B.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, each party shall be responsible for its costs incurred as a result of this Addendum. Participating Carrier acknowledges that reservation agents of the WORLDSPAN Carriers may access information pursuant to this Addendum.

 

5.             Fees.

 

Participating Carrier shall pay the charges for AccessPLUS as established according to the Agreement from time to time and in the manner provided in the Agreement.

 

6.             Term.

 

This Addendum shall become effective on February 1, 1991, and shall continue in effect for a minimum of twelve (12) months. Thereafter, it shall continue until terminated by either party on not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice. The foregoing notwithstanding, WORLDSPAN may terminate this Addendum at any time with respect to a WORLDSPAN System if it elects to terminate the AccessPLUS option for all carriers in that WORLDSPAN System. In no event shall this Addendum remain in effect beyond the termination date of the Agreement.

 

7.             No Other Amendment.

 

Except as provided herein, all terms and conditions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Addendum to be executed by their duly authorized undersigned representatives as of February 1, 1991.

Addendum — Supplemental Services
Passive Segment Notification

 

THIS Addendum is by and between WORLDSPAN, L. P. (“WORLDSPAN”) and the Participating Carrier identified below.

 

WORLDSPAN and Participating Carrier have entered into a WORLDSPAN Participating Carrier Agreement (the “Agreement”).

 

WORLDSPAN has developed a procedure for notifying participating carriers when a WORLDSPAN User creates a Passive Segment.

 

WORLDSPAN desires to provide and Participating Carrier desires to receive Passive Segment Notification.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1.             DEFINITIONS

 

Passive Segment shall mean a Booking created in the WORLDSPAN System using the “passive” or “holding” status codes HK, HL, MK, ML (and other status codes determined by WORLDSPAN from time to time).

 

Passive Segment Notification shall mean a teletype message sent from the WORLDSPAN System to Participating Carrier’s system using the status codes PK or PL indicating a Passive Segment has been entered in the WORLDSPAN System.  Passive Segment Notification shall also mean a teletype message sent from the WORLDSPAN System to Participating Carrier’s system using the status code PX indicating the cancellation of a Passive Segment containing the status codes MK or ML.

 

WORLDGroup shall mean the program in the WORLDSPAN System that allows WORLDSPAN Users to request and/or manage blocked space by using a WORLDGroup Passive Inventory Record.

 

WORLDGroup Passive Inventory Record shall mean the record created in the WORLDSPAN System that stores inventory of blocked space booked directly with Participating Carrier. WORLDGroup Passive Inventory Records can only be created for space blocked on those carriers who do not participate in WORLDGroup.

 

WORLDGroup Passive Segment shall mean a Passive Segment created to reflect usage of space stored in a WORLDGroup Passive Inventory Record for a specific passenger(s).

 



 

WORLDGroup PNR as used in this Addendum shall mean a PNR containing at least one Booking sold from the inventory stored in a WORLDGroup Passive Inventory Record.

 

2.             PASSIVE SEGMENT NOTIFICATION OPTIONS

 

A.            Passive Segment Notification Status Codes

 

Participating Carrier agrees to accept Passive Segment Notification using the following status codes: (initial only one.)

 

ý          1.       PK and FL only.

 

o          2.       PK, PL and PX.

 

B.            WORLDGroup Passive Segments

 

Participating Carrier agrees to accept Passive Segment Notification for the following Passive Segments: (Initial only one.)

 

o          1.       All Passive Segments excluding WORLDGroup Passive Segments.

 

ý          2.       All Passive Segments, including WORLDGroup Passive Segments.  Participating Carrier has the option for WORLDSPAN to include an SSR item in the Passive Segment Notification to identify WORLDGroup Passive Segments. (Initial only one.)

 

ý   a.              Participating Carrier, in accordance with Paragraph 3.C., desires WORLDSPAN to include an SSR item in the Passive Segment Notification generated from a WORLDGroup PNR that includes a designator identifying the corresponding group space in Participating Carrier’s system.

 

o   b.              Participating Carrier, in accordance with Paragraph 3.D., does not desire WORLDPSPAN to include an SSR item in the Passive Segment Notification generated from a WORLDGroup PNR. Participating Carrier acknowledges that without the SSR item, Participating Carrier will not be able to differentiate between Passive Segment

Notification from WORLDGroup PNRs and those received from other PNRs.

 

3.             RESPONSIBILITIES OF PARTICIPATING CARRIER

 

A.            Participating Carrier, at its sole cost and expense, agrees to receive a Passive Segment Notification message from the WORLDSPAN System containing PK and PL status codes and, if applicable, the PX status code.

 

B.            Participating Carrier may, at its sole discretion, and subject to the conditions set forth in Paragraph 3.C. if applicable, match the Passive Segments in the Passive Segment Notification with PNRs resident in Participating Carrier’s system. If there is no match, Participating Carrier may so advise the WORLDSPAN User by replying with an NO action code, provided that such reply is not sent more than twelve (12) hours following receipt by Participating Carrier.

 

C.            If Participating Carrier has elected to receive Passive Segment Notification for all Passive Segments, including WORLDGroup Passive Segments (Paragraph 2.B.2), and if Participating Carrier has elected to receive the SSR item (Paragraph 2.B.2.a), then Participating Carrier agrees to attempt to match the information in the SSR item to PNRs in Participating Carrier’s system or any other location that maintains records of blocked space. Participating Carrier shall provide the WORLDSPAN User with the PNR record locator, or other indicator consisting of three (3) to nine (9) alphas and/or numerics, to identify the PNR stored in Participating Carrier’s system for those reservations involving blocked space. Only in those instances in which Participating Carrier is unable to successfully match the Passive Segment Notification with a PNR in Participating Carrier’s system will Participating Carrier have an option to return an NO action code.

 

D.            If Participating Carrier has elected to receive Passive Segment Notification for all Passive Segments including WORLDGroup Passive Segments (Paragraph 2.B.2) but has elected not to receive the SSR item (Paragraph 2.B.2.b), then Participating Carrier shall not reply with an NO action code to any Passive Segment Notification. Participating Carrier acknowledges that WORLDSPAN Users may add individual passenger names to WORLDGroup PNRs in the WORLDSPAN System prior to Participating Carrier receiving the individual passenger names from the WORLDSPAN User, thus preventing Participating

Carrier from matching the Passive Segment Notification to a PNR in Participating Carrier’s system. In these circumstances, receipt of Passive Segment Notification is for informational purposes only.

 

E.             Participating Carrier agrees that a reply message with an NO action code will also contain an SSR item advising the reason for the NO action code.

 

F.             Participating Carrier consents to the receipt of Passive Segments from WORLDSPAN Users as set forth in this Addendum.

 

4.             RESPONSIBILITIES OF WORLDSPAN

 

A.            All Participating Carrier’s segments entered into the WORLDSPAN System as Passive Segments using status codes MK or HK, pursuant to Paragraph 2.B., will be transmitted to Participating Carrier with status code PK pursuant to industry standards.

 

B.            All Participating Carrier’s segments entered into the WORLDSPAN System as Passive Segments using status codes ML or HL, pursuant to Paragraph 2.B., will be transmitted to Participating Carrier with status code PL pursuant to industry standards.

D.            WORLDSPAN will transmit a Passive Segment Notification containing the PX status code upon cancellation of any Participating Carrier segment containing the status code MK or ML, pursuant to Paragraph 2.B., if Participating Carrier has elected to receive the PX status code.

 

E.             If Participating Carrier has elected to receive the SSR item to identify Passive Segment Notification for WORLDGroup Passive Segments (Paragraph 2.B.2.a), then WORLDSPAN agrees to include an SSR item in the Passive Segment Notification with the PNR record locator, or other indicator consisting of three (3) to nine (9) alphas and/or numerics as provided by Participating Carrier to the WORLDSPAN User.

F.             WORLDSPAN shall provide Participating Carrier with a copy of WORLDSPAN’s then current Passive Segment Notification Technical Specifications at no charge to Participating Carrier.

 

G.            WORLDSPAN reserves the right to limit or modify any WORLDSPAN System passive message service at any time at WORLDSPAN’s sole discretion.

 

5.             FEES

 

A.            WORLDSPAN reserves the right to assess fees for the services provided in this Addendum pursuant to applicable provisions of the Agreement.

 

B.            Applicable charges for Bookings are applied to all Passive Segments, including WORLDGroup Passive Segments. Booking fees do not apply to WORLDGroup Passive Inventory Records.
