If itinerary includes an inbound connection, system adds the indicator .I/. If more than two connections exist it also adds the indicator .O/+
Considerations:
In order to accept passengers all flights on the itinerary must be initialized and the Control Panel updated.
The sequence number will be assigned on each flight independently
A passenger can be accepted with a maximum of three connections, otherwise system displays the following error:
ERROR - MAXIMUM PERMITTED 3 CONNECTING FLIGHTS
System responds with this error message when trying to accept passengers on Other Airline flights without interline agreement
INVALID - NO AGREEMENT BETWEEN CARRIERS
Accepting passengers on connecting flights is not available for upgrade or downgrade
Accepting passengers with conecting flights:
In order to accept passengers on connecting flights add the indicator ,O to the Passenger upload entry (PU):
PU<nro. de ítem>,O
Example: PU1,O
Use this entry to accept the passenger on all the connecting flights included on his itinerary
Este formato acepta los calificadores ya conocidos como:
This format accepts the following known combinations:
Accept passenger with comments: PU1-3,O,MSTEXTO
Accept passenger with exact weight: PU1,O,WT90
Accept passenger on a Jump Seat: PU1,O,JMP
Accept passengers with baggage: PU1-2,O,2/15,BT123456/988777
Accept passengers on CUTE platforms (third party vendors): PU1,O,1/10+1/15+1/20,ST3A
In order to accept a passenger with more than one connecting flight add the amount of connections
PU<item number>,O<total connecting flights>
Example: PU1,O2
On this example this passenger is accepted on the current flight and two onward connections. Consider the maximum connection accepted is 3, hence, the maximum value for this entry is ,O3
Considerations for seat assignment
The seat number assigned to the first flight is also assigned to the connecting flight. If the same seat number is not available, use the PV entry (native map) for each flight if available to verify the available seats and use the following entry to assign a different seat individually.
Example: PU1,O,ST2C+3C
Separate the seat number for each flight by using a + sign
When accommodating multiple passengers on the same transaction and must assign different seats for each flight.
Example:
PU1-2,O,ST6C10C+3C3A
PU1+2+3+4F,O,2/30,BT123456/57,ST3B3C4B4C+8B8C9B9C
Editing passengers on connecting flights
Passenger edit entries must include the indicator ,O in order to apply to the onward connecting flights
Example:
PE262/24OCTCCSAUA-4,ST1A,O
PU1,O,ST<seat flight one>+<seat flight two>
PE303/24OCTAUABON-3,P,O
History display for connecting flights:
Passengers upload entry adds the indicator ,O on the flight history, meaning that passenger was accepted on the current and connecting flights

Passenger edition using using 2D/QR scanners
You can use a 2D/QR scanner to invoque and display the information from a passengers boarding pass, the command line is
PE-R
The intimidate response changes according to the environment where it's executed:
CUTE airports (SITA-ULTRA-ARINC-RESA): the command line awaits for the boarding pass to be scanned
PE-R WAITING BOARDING PASS ....
The reader used in the CUTE environment might be overrride using the following commnad line. This action forces the behaviour emulating this functionality on an NON CUTE airport
PE-ROR (other reader)
IMPORTANT: this commnad lines only overrrides the configuration, we can´t guarantee the correct funtionality as the environment is controlled by a common use platform that might reject the use of an external peripheral
NON CUTE airports: the command line executes a pop-up windows that enables the use of the scanner, bare in mind that this pop-up is single use, one scan at the time, instead of multiple scans used at boarding process. Every time the airport agents wants to use the scanner the command line should be triggered. In order to use this feature the agent should be using KIU v1.700.102 or higher and PBR2 option must be set up on the Readers Setup in table JJCHK
The information displayed on the screen is the same for both environments, a search by sequence number is displayed along with a combinad line ready to be used with the variables the airport agent may need
