INTRODUCTION

The concept of OB FEE refers to administrative charges that can be defined and charged, for the airline and / or travel agency, in the issuance of electronic tickets.

OFF FEE TYPES

OB is the identifier code IATA gives administrative or extra charges on ticket issuances.

There are 3 types of FEE OB FEES(charges):

•  Type T - Emission Ticketing  Fee
•  Type F - Fee by Form dependent of form of Payment
•  Type R - Fee per required service (functionality not implemented)

Considerations:

• The use of the FEE OB within the airline is configured from the JJETKT table of each country under the OB FEE [OBF] parameter .If the indicator is in N (NO) it means that the airline can not apply, nor can configure the collection of FEEs. If it is in Y (YES), the airline can configure the FEEs to be charged at the time of ticket issuance.

• The use of the FEE OB will allow the airline to charge one or more values for the following reasons:

           Type T: By issuance (Ticketing). A fee is charged for ticket issuance. The value can be with a single amount or a percentage on the Net Fare.

          Type F:  Dependent on the form  of Payment. It can be charged only when the type of payment is with a credit card or Debit. The value can be with a single amount or a percentage of the total.

• Ticketing  with FEEs FEES can be automatic or manual. If automatic mode was applied, the system will take the values defined in the table TX * FEE / *
  
  
• OB FEE charges FEES are charged only for each new issue and are not reimbursable.
  
  

• OB FEE charges do not apply to the fare mask, that is, they can not be used in the pricing of unpublished rates.
