In this module you will learn to manage the seat map assigned to a flight for Check-in.

There are 2 versions available for administrating the different seat characteristics on the Seat Map.

Version 1 is the default version distributed to all airlines.
Version 2 includes the possibility to configure new special seat characteristics for the same seat and it also includes the possibility to configure double-decker aircrafts.
The new seat characteristics on version 2 are the multiple characteristics associated to one seat and the rows configuration for double-decker aircrafts, indicating the upper and the main aircraft decks which can be displayed only in KIU COMMAND as it is not yet available in the graphic mode. Anyway, version 2 Graphical Seating Chart will also displayed the seat characteristics available on version 1.

Managing the seat map from the control panel (version 2)

Introducción

Special feature configurations for flight seat map can be managed at check-in. Special features can be added for each seat on the seat map when checking in and also from the flight Control Panel (PC)

Description

In order to manage the different seat characteristics that can be configured on the seat map, there are 2 version types.
Version 1 is the one distributed to all airlines and it is the one by default.
Version 2 includes the possibility of configuring new special features for the same seat and also includes aircraft seat map with 2 floors (upper and main deck)
These new multiple features included in version 2 can be configured for the same seat on native mode together with rows identifying the aircraft floor (upper and main deck) Unfortunately these new features are not available for the graphical seat map. However if version 2 is activated, characteristics available on version 1 will be also displayed on the graphical seat map.

Activate version type:

The version will be configured and activated under airline request to KIU Support (host@kiusys.com or your Executive Account)

Soported Features

This version incorporates the possibility for assigning and displaying multiple characteristics to the same seat and allows managing new characteristics that are not avaialable in version 1 (seats that have an electric charger, seats that allow seating people in wheelchairs, seats that allow seating unaccompanied minors)
In the upper deck special and multiple characteristics can be configured for seats and rows in the same way that it is configured for the main deck.
This configuration allows managing multiple seat characteristics (both operational and commercial) It also incorporates the possibility to configure/view seats for passengers with reduced mobility (PMR as i.e, wheelchair) and unaccompanied minors.
These new features are only displayed in native mode either with the PV or PC command. These features are not displayed in the graphical seat map which is displayed when checking a passenger in or requesting the PS.
The special characteristics that can be associated to the seats for both upper and main deck are the following:

Descripton	Configuration Code	Seat Map Code
Blocked	BS	B
AC Power	AC	E
Infant	AI	i
Available for wheelchairs	WC	M
Reserved for the airline (so it won't be sold)	RS	R
Available for unaccompanied minor	UM	U

Special features configuration for seats

Special features can be configured for each seat

The entry to configure the special features for each seat using the Control Panel is:

PC<flight>/<date><origin>,SMP//<indicator><+><seat number/row/column>

Where:

Indicator: it is the configuration code of the special feature to be configured (according to the table previously described)
Seat: it is the identification of the row and/or column of the seat to be configured, depending on the characteristic to be configured, the row or column must be identified instead of the seat number.
+: Configures the selected seat and keeps as reserved all the seats previously reserved.
- If the "+" is not specified, it reconfigures the reserved seats and releases those that were previously configured

Example:

PC4444/10MARAEP,SMP//AI10F

Description:

PC	Mandatory to indicate Control Panel configurations
4444	flight number
/	Slash
10MAR	Departure date
AEP	Origin

AI	code to configurate, in this case AI (infant indicator)
10F	seat to which the characteristic is assigned (row 10 / column F)

Configuration options for more than one seat/full row/full column

9A	Reserve seat 9A
7AC	Reserve seats 7A and 7C
10*	Reserve the entire row 10
1214	Reserve the entire rows 12 and 14
*86A**	Reserve the entire row 8 and seat 6A

Removing previously configured features

If you want to remove the feature assigned to a seat, please enter the command below with the negative sign before the seat number. The same options used for reserving seats or rows are applicable for removing the indicators.

PC<flight>/<date><origin>,SMP//<indicator><-><seat number/row/column>

Example:

PC4444/10MARAEP,SMP//AI-10F

Option to remove and release all seats blocked:

PC<flight>,SMP//BS

Option to delete and release all reserved seats:

PC<flight>,SMP//RS

Delete a configuration:

To delete the configuration of a seat that allows the acceptance of infants in the seat map the following command can be entered:

PC3172/07FEBAEP,SMP//AI-2A

Description:

The fields are the same as previously described with the only difference that the "-" sign is placed before the seat number configured with the letter “I”.

Same options than those for configuring seats/rows are applicable.

To remove the "I" indicator from all the seats on the seat map, the command to use is:

PC3172/07FEBAEP,SMP//AI

This command removes all the seats with the "I" indicator in the configured seat map.

Configuration of Seat Map characteristics (Version 1)

Introduction

This chapter explains the methodology for assigning special seat characteristics to the database seat map on the OAC list for an airline with version 1 activated

Description

Special characteristics can be established for each seat and they are defined with this characteristic in the seat map associated with a configuration
Depending on the type of activation that the airline has, there are 2 types of configuration in the administration and display of seat maps.
This chapter describes the methodology for assigning features with version 1 activated
Activation by type:
- The airline can choose the version to be configured but only Kiu Support can activate the required configuration.

Features supported by version 1

This is the current version (default for all airlines)

The features that can be associated with seats are:

Description	Configuration Code	Seat Map Code
Blocked	B	B
Infant	I	I
Other RBD (Reservation Booking Designator)	K	K
Reserved for airline (not to be sold)	R	R
Non-reclining seat	N	/
Window Column	W	w>
Aisle Column	A	»
Emergency Exit	E	=
Over Wing Seats	G	[

Configuration in the seat map

Special characteristics can be established for each seat and they are defined with this characteristic in the seat map associated with a configuration

To configure the special characteristics for each seat in the equipment, the following steps must be carried out

1. OAC/SMR157                 (retrieval of the seat map to be modified)
2. OAC/SMM/                   (seat/row/column configuration)
3. OAC/SMV                    (display of the modified seat map)
4. OAC/SME                    (save the changes made on the seat map)
5. OAC/SMI                    (ignores the changes made)

Retrieval of the seat map

Retrieve the seat map to be configured on the screen with the following command:

To view the seat map of a flight booked on command is the following

OAC/SMR<seat map number>

Example:

OAC/SMR157

Description:

OAC	Fixed command that identifies the configurations (Aircraft Configuration)
/	Slash
SM	Seat map indicator (Seat map)
R	Indicator to retrieve the map on the screen (Retrieve)
157	Id of the KASAT team to which the Seat Map will be associated that will have the same Id number

When executing this command, the system will display the seat map on the screen, for viewing and later modification, as shown below.

Modification/configuration of seating characteristics

Depending on the version activated for the management of the seating map, the commands to configure the special characteristics of the seats are the following:
- Once the seating map is displayed, it must be indicated the modification to be made.
Depending on the version activated for managing seat map management, the commands to configure the special characteristics of seats are as follows

Configure a feature:

OAC/SMM/<indicator><seat>

Where:

Indicator: is the code of configuration of the special feature to be configured (according to the table previously described; in this case for this version the code is one character)
Seat: it is the identification of the row and/or column of the seat to be configured

Example:

OAC/SMM/I10F

Description:

OAC	Fixed command that identifies the configurations (Aircraft Configuration)
/	Slash
SM	Seat map
M	Indicator to modify the previously displayed map (modify)
/	Slash
I	Feature code to configure, in this case I (infant indicator)
10F	Seat to which the characteristic is assigned (row 10 / column F)

Configuration options for more than one seat/full row/c full column

One seat: 2A
Multiple seats: 2AB3C
One full row: 4*
Multiple full rows: 4*5*
One seat and one full row: 3B5*

Delete a previously configured feature

If you want to delete the configuration of a feature from an entry, you must enter the command as follows, with the negative symbol in front of the entry number, as shown below:

OAC/SMM/<indicator>-<seat>

Example:

OAC/SMM/I-10F

This entry removes the permission for an adult with an infant to sit in seat 10F

Visualización / Redespliegue mapa de asientos

Once the modifications have been entered in the seat map, you can enter the following command to display the changes made so far, with the following command:

OAC/SMV

Ignore Seat Map

At any time you can ignore what is being modified or created:

OAC/SMI

Save Seat Map

Once all the indicators have been added, the seat map must be saved/recorded:

OAC/SME

Delete a seat map

OAC/SMD{seat map number created}

Clone a seat map

OAC/SMC{seat map number created}

Graphical seat map generation

Once the seat map has been created, a graphical version can be generated

OAC/SMG{seat map number created}

If the configuration of a seat map, which is being used on a flight, is modified, the changes will not be automatically displayed because the aircraft registration in use will have to be unassigned for assigning a different one and then reassigning the original one.
At this time the changes made in the OAC/SM will be displayed.

Configuration of seat map equipment characteristics (Version 2)

Introduction

This chapter explains the methodology for assigning the special characteristics of the seats in the seating maps of the teams through the OAC; taking into account that the activation of the airline for the administration of seat maps is version 2.

Description

Special characteristics can be established for each seat and that they are defined with this characteristic in the seat map associated with a configuration
Depending on the type of activation that the airline has, there are 2 types of configuration in the administration and visualization of seat maps.
This chapter describes the methodology for assigning features with version 1 activated Version

Activation by type:

The version to be used by the airline is configurable by the customer and must be requested from Support for its configuration

Features supported by the version 2

This version incorporates the possibility of assigning and displaying multiple characteristics to the same seat and allows managing new characteristics that are not in force in version 1 (seats that have an electricity charger, seats that allow assigning people in wheelchairs, seats that allow unaccompanied minors to sit)
It also allows the configuration of seat maps identifying aircraft configurations with two floors. The upper deck is identified as the upper deck and the main deck as the main deck
In the seats that are in the rows configured in the upper deck, special and multiple characteristics can also be configured (in the same way that it is configured in the main deck)
This configuration It allows managing the map of seats that contain multiple characteristics in the same seat (both operational and commercial) and also incorporates the possibility of configuring/viewing seats that allow passengers with reduced mobility (wheelchair) and unaccompanied minor (unaccompanied minor).
These new features are only displayed on the drop-down seat map at the PV, PC, OAC and KPRS, that is, they are not displayed on the graph that is displayed at the time of check-in or when requesting the PS.

The special characteristics that can be associated (both for the upper deck and for the main deck) to the seats are the following:

Description	Configuration Code	Seat Map Code
Blocked	BS	B
AC Power	AC	E
Infant	AI	i
Other RBD (Reservation Booking Designator)	BK	K

Seat map configuration

Special characteristics can be configured for each seat and they are defined with this characteristic in the seat map associated with a configuration

To configure the special characteristic features for each seat in the equipment, perform following steps:

1. OAC/SMR157                 (seat map retrieval to modify)
2. OAC/SMM/                   (seat/row/column configuration)
3. OAC/SMV                    (seat map display modified seat map)
4. OAC/SME                    (save the changes made to the seat map)
5. OAC/SMI                    (ignores the changes made)

Seat map retrieval

Retrieve on screen the seat map to be configured with the following command:

To see the seat map of a reserved flight, the command is the following

OAC/SMR<seat map number>

Example:

OAC/SMR157

Description:

OAC	Fixed command that identifies the configurations (Aircraft Configuration)
/	Slash
SM	Seat Map Indicator
R	Indicator to retrieve the map on the screen (Retrieve)
157	Id of the KASAT list to which the Seat Map was associated and will have the same Id number

When transmitting this command, the system will display the seat map on the screen for viewing and updating:

Delete a previously configured feature

If you want to delete the configuration of a feature of a seat, you must enter the command as follows, with the symbol negative in front of the seat number, as shown below:

OAC/SMM//<indicator>-<seat>

Example:

OAC/SMM//AI-10F

With this entry the permission is removed so that seat 10F is available for a passenger with no infant

View / Redisplay seat map

Once the updates have been registered in the seat map, you can view these changes by transmitting the following command:

OAC/SMV

Ignore seat map

To ignore what is being modified or created before:

OAC/SMI

Save seat map

Once all the indicators have been added, you must record/save the seat map characteristics:

OAC/SME

Delete seat map

OAC/SMD{seat map number created}

Clone seat map

OAC/SMC{seat map number created}

Generate a graphical seat map

Once the seat map is created, we can generate a graphical seat map.

OAC/SMG{seat map number created}

If the configuration of a seat map, which is in use for a flight, is modified, the changes will not be automatically shown. The aircraft registration in use will have to be unassigned, then a different registration should be assigned before reassigning the original registration in order to view the latest updates introduced.
At this time the changes made in the OAC/SM will be displayed.

Displaying the multiple characteristics of a seat

The option of visualizing all the characteristics configured in the same seat is incorporated.
Seats that have multiple features can be identified on the seat map showing a "+" sign for the commercial features that seat has, and a "*" sign when it has multiple operational features
Identification of multiple characteristics for the same entry (from the SMR or with the SMV)

Example (seats 7F y 7E)
