Commercial indicators that allow service management and marketing can be loaded by command regardless of the load that is made in the creation of legs 

Keep in mind that  the indicators that are loaded for legs will not apply for segments that are generated automatically in the creation of a service.Therefore the only option is to use these commands. It is also worth mentioning that they can be used in the modification of flights.

Take into account that  in order to load or modify the indicator it is not necessary to use the KSMODIFY command (see flight modification)

Next you can read about the indicators.

3.1 Authorization control per cabin

The authorization can be modified with  a command. It must be considered that the authorization will be the same for all the classes of each cabin and for each leg of the service, that is, it will only be modified per cabin and per leg.

The commands to modify are:

KSAU/LEG/MANDATORY CLASS/VALUE

EjemploExample:

 KSAU/AEPCOR/Y/100

Description:

The answer System response  in both cases is an IMN display with the modified indicators modified in the AUTH column. The new authorization that affects the leg  and the corresponding segments will be displayed.
 

Example:

LEG  BRD OFF   # M-C  AUTH   BS
1     AEP TUC  01 Y Y   100    0
               02   B                                       
                  03   H                                 
2     TUC SLA  01 Y Y   124    0                      
                  02   B                                 
                  03   H                                 
     AEP-SLA  01 Y Y   100    0                       
                  02   B                                
                  03   H     

The authorization that had 124  in the AEPTUC section was modified to 100, therefore it also affects the AEPSLA segment because the minimum leaving AEP is 100. The TUCSLA sleg  will not be affected.

Block Space Control

You can block spaces for various reasons which will be reflected in the flight inventory  and will be discounted from the actual capacity , without modifying its authorization.
As in the authorization, the block is made per cabin and per leg only, affecting the segments involved in that leg. The command to execute the "Block Space" is:

KSBS/LEG/MANDATORY CLASS/VALUE

Example:

 KSBS/AEPCOR/Y/10

The system response is a display of the INM (inventory) with the added indicators. In the BS column the indicator with the number of blocked places in the corresponding leg will be displayed. You will see the same amount of  blocked spaces in the affected segments but with an asterisk next to it indicating that this value was unintentionally placed since it is affected by the leg.

Example:

LEG  BRD OFF   # M-C  AUTH   BS
1     AEP TUC  01 Y Y   124   10
               02   B                                       
                  03   H                                 
2     TUC SLA  01 Y Y   124    0                      
                  02   B                                 
                  03   H                                 
     AEP-SLA  01 Y Y   124   10*                        
                  02   B                                
                  03   H                                
				  

A space block of 10  was added to the AEPTUC leg, which  also affects the AEPSLA segment, consequently the same amount is added  but with an asterisk next to it to indicate that it is involuntarily affected by the leg.

To remove the block, the same command is repeated but with value 0 (zero).

Sales limiters

Sales limiters can be placed by schedule in the process of creating a flight or at any other time when necessary. These limiters will overwrite the ones already established if equipment with pre-established limiters has been used.

The commands to place the sales limiters per schedule are the following:

 KSLS / ROUTE / CLASS / LIMIT

Example:

KSLS/AEPSLA/B/10

The system response is a display of the INM (inventory) with the modified indicators in the LS column. To remove sales limits or leave them without limits, the N indicator mut be used instead of the amount.

Example:

KSLS/AEPSLA/Y/N (N= No Sales limit ) 

You can add  or modify limits to several classes at the same time. For each class there must be an amount  indicator or you can add several classes and a single amount, which will be applied for all added classes .

Examples:

KSLS/AEPSLA/BHK/40.20.10
KSLS/AEPSLA/BHK/30

Instead of the route, you can use ALLALL to refer to all the segments or use for example ALLSLA to include all the segments that arrive at SLA or AEPALL to include all the segments originating  AEP . This option is applicable to all load indicator commands that will be detailed below

Nesting

Classes can be nested in order to market the service. The commands for nesting  classes are:

KSNT / ROUTE / CLASSES / INDEX

Example:

KSNT/AEPSLA/KNMV/ADD

To remove  nesting settings, the indicator  is changed to DEL. It is important to clarify that in order to nest classes, these must  have a sales limit. The response in both cases is a display of the INM (inventory) with the modified indicators in columns NG, NL and LSS.
In NG-NL columns , you can see the nesting group to which the specific  classes belong (NG: Nesting Group) and each class category (NL: Nesting Level).

The LSS column will indicate the new authorized sales limit according to the class nesting

Example:

LEG  BRD OFF  #  M-C  AUTH   BS    LS NG-NL  LSS  TSO  TSC NLOS  WLL   
1  AEP BHI 
               01 Y Y   100    0                     0    0    0  
               02   E               10  1-1    45    0    0    0  
               03   G               10  1-2    35    0    0    0  
               04   V               25  1-3    25    0    0    0  
 

EGV classes were nested  in that  hierarchy order , therefore  NG column will display them with a  number 1 meaning that they belong to Group 1. NL is the order of importance of each class. E shows number 1, G 2 and V 3 respectively. Class E has a sales limit of 10, G also of 10 and V of 25 (LS column), but being hierarchical, that limit is modified and will be reflected in the LSS column, therefore E class will have a limit of 45,  G of 35 and  V of 25 and will be deducted from each other.

Temporary opening and closing of classes

Classes can also be configured to be opened and / or closed automatically  with a certain number of hours before flight departure.

The commands are the following:

Automatic opening of classes

KSSO/ROUTE/CLASS/VALUE

Example:

 KSSO/AEPJUJ/V/240

Automatic closing of classes

KSSC/Route/CLASS/VALUE

Example :

KSSC/AEPJUJ/V/240  

System response in both cases is a an IM display (inventory) with the modified indicators. In the TSO column you will see the number of hours before the classes are open for sale and in the TSC the number of hours before closing for sale . If no indicator is added or if you want remove the indicator indicator 0 (zero) will apply.

In the same way that it is applied to the other indicators, the indicator can be set  to several classes at the same time, placing the classes together to modify, or apply to all the segments using ALLALL to refer to all of them.

Example:

KSSC/AEPMDZ/BHKMN/48 

KSOS/ROUTE/CABIN/LOGIC

Example:

KSOS/AEPSLA/Y/1

The answer is a display of the INM (inventory) with the modified indicators. In the NLOS column you will see the logic number to apply if you have it or it will be empty in case you do not have any type of overbooking.
To remove the logic, the indicator 0 (ZERO) is used instead of the logic number.

Example:

KSOS/AEPSLA/Y/0

You can also do the entry to modify or add logic to several cabins at the same time. For each cabin there must be an amount indicator or you can add several cabins and a single amount, which will be applied to all the cabins that were added.

Ejxamples:

KSOS/AEPSLA/FCY/1.5.7   When there are several cabins or logic,a dot should be used to separate from each other 

KSOS/AEPSLA/FCY/6

Waiting list limiters

You can limit the waiting list capacity of each class or close it so that it is not accepted.

The command is the following:

KSWL/ROUTE/CLASS/LIMIT OR INDEX  

Example:

KSWL/AEPSLA/B/10

Waiting list limiters can be used for:

•   A certain value to limit acceptance.
•   A value 0 (zero) to close it and no passengers acceptance. Availability display will show the class followed by the C indicator
•   An index N to open waiting list acceptance without limits.

System response is  an INM display with the modified indicators in the WLL column.

Command can be applied to several classes at the same time (see KSLS command).

Examples:

KSWL/AEPSLA/BHK/40.20.10

KSWL/AEPSLA/BHK/30

Instead of the route, you can use ALLALL to refer to all the segments or use for example ALLSLA to apply to all segments arriving SLA or AEPALL to all the segments originating AEP . This option is applicable to all load indicator commands that will be detailed below.

Closure and opening of booking classes

Booking classes can be closed, and will remain in the inventory but can not be viewed in availability or sold.

Booking classes closed with this procedure can be overbooked manually (OB or KK) or by schedule change (in reaccommodaation).

These classes can be opened with the same closing procedure, changing the indicators. The commands are the following:

Class Closure

KSCL/ROUTE/CLASS/INDEX 

Ejemplo: 

Class opening

KSCL/ROUTE/CLASS/INDEX 

Example: 

KSCL/AEPSLA/B/OPEN 

Example: 

KSCL/ALLALL/BHKMN/OPEN

System response is an INM (inventory) displayed with the modified indicators in the STATUS column. A letter C will be observed in the closed class or it will be empty in case the indicator is removed. 

Several classes can be closed or opened at the same time the same way you can do with other indicators.

KSCL/ALLALL/BHKMN/OPEN 

Booking classes on request 

Booking classes can be configured so that they can be on  permanent request. Bookings that are generated on these classes will be placed on queue and will generate a warning so the system administrator can check and confirm or reject them.

The command is the following:

KSRQ/ROUTE/CLASS/INDEX

Example:

KSRQ/AEPMDZ/V/ON

To remove the booking class from pending request status, the index must be changed to OFF (CLOSE or STOP are also accepted)System response in both cases is an INM display  with the modified indicators. In the STATUS column, a letter R will be present adjacent to the booking class or it will be empty in case the indicator is removed.

In the same way that it is applied to the other indicators, you can  set several classes on request or remove them all at the same time, placing the classes together to be modified.

Example:

KSRQ/ALLMDZ/BHKMN/ON

Overbooking inhibition control

This control allows to inhibit the overbooking of classes despite having the keywords that enable overbooking (OVERSL, CHKOSL). The indicator will be reflected in the inventory of the flight under the ST column with the letters Ox. This function only allows overbooking in the rea accommodation by schedule change or through mass reaccommodation (VMOVE function).

Inhibit the class overbooking

KSIO/ROUTE/CLASS/INDEX

Example:

KSIO/AEPMDQ/B/ON

Remove the overbooking inhibition of a class

KSIO/ROUTE/CLASS/INDEX

Example:

KSIO/AEPMDQ/B/OFF

Options

The parameter can be entered for several classes and several segments.

The input command is:

KSIO/ALLALL/BHKMN/ON

KSIO/ALLALL//ON 

Catering service

The catering service can also be modified. It will apply to all classes of the segment 

The command to execute is:

KSML/ROUTE/SERVICE INDICATOR (up to 3 services)

Ejemplo:

KSML/AEPJUJ/D

Descripción:

To view all available catering service options, use the VMML command.

System response is a display of the INM (inventory) with the added or modified indicator. They will be displayed in the ML column.

Once added, they cannot be modified again. To change, the command must be ignored with KSIR.

Campo de información

Se pueden cargan campos de información que serán visualizados en un pedido de disponibilidad. La carga del mismo se efectúa de la siguiente forma: 

KSRM/RUTA/TEXTO LIBRE

Ejemplo:

KSRM/AEPJUJ/EMBARCA POR PUERTA 12 SECTOR C

La respuesta es un despliegue del INM (inventario) con el texto agregado en un campo REMARK debajo de cada segmento sobre el cual se aplicó el mismo. 
Para borrar un comentario, se repite la entrada sin el texto. Por ejemplo, utilizando el comando anterior, sería: 

KSRM/AEPJUJ

Esto borrará el comentario que tenía ese segmento.
De la misma forma que los demás indicadores, se pueden aplicar a todos los segmentos utilizando ALLALL para referirse a todos. 
También se puede colocar un comentario, el cual quedará grabado en la reserva y cuando se imprima el e-ticket. El comando es el mismo pero colocando una doble barra luego de la ruta. 
Ejemplo: 

KSRM/AEPJUJ//OPERADO POR LUNA LINEAS AEREAS

 Terminales de salida y arribos

Se pueden cargar las terminales de salida y arribo por aeropuerto. El comando soporta hasta 2 dígitos como se detalla a continuación:

 Terminal de salida

KSTD/BRD/TERMINAL (hasta 2 dígitos)

Ejemplo:

KSTD/AEP/C

Descripción:

 Terminal de arribo

KSTA/OFF/TERMINAL (hasta 2 dígitos) 

Ejemplo:

KSTA/COR/A2

Descripción:

Para borrar las terminales que estén ya asignadas los comandos son los siguientes:

• Para la salida:
  
  

KSTD/AEP/DEL o bien KSTD/AEP

DEL (Delete) indica la cancelación dejando vacía la columna de Terminal de Salida (TD) o bien se deja el espacio vacío después del aeropuerto de salida y el sistema borra la terminal que tenía asignada.

Para el arribo:

 KSTA/COR/DEL o KSTA/COR 

El criterio a utilizar es mismo que con las salidas, cambiando el indicador de terminal por el de arribo (TA).

Tipo de Servicio (Regular o Charter)

Para modificar o agregar el tipo de servicio se debe ejecutar el siguiente comando 

 KSTY/AEPMDQ/<tipo de servicio>

Ejemplo:
KA*6790
KS.1
KSTY/AEPUSH/C
KSAVE
