    This lesson summary discusses how to retrieve and interpret fare displays in a GDS. Fare displays show the general cost of travel between cities and allow agents to compare prices among airlines. They can also search for specific fares. The date of travel and additional qualifiers like airline and fare type help narrow search results to find the appropriate fare. Some fare rules are visible but full conditions require further review. Routing information in displays or follow-ups is important for non-direct travel, indicating allowed stops and carriers.

    Lesson 4 — Summary

    IATA GDS Fares and Ticketing


    LESSON 4: GDS FARE DISPLAYS — SUMMARY
    In this lesson you learnt how to retrieve and interpret GDS fare displays. Fare displays are
    used by agents to determine the general cost of travel between two cities and to compare
    prices between airlines. They can also be used to search for a specific fare.

    The price of travel between two cities can change depending on the date traveled and using
    dates in the entry can help reduce the number of fares listed in the display. Other qualifiers,
    such as airline, fare type and booking code, can also be used to narrow the results, making
    it easier to locate the appropriate fare.

    A few of a fare's rules are shown in the fare display, but this does not represent the full
    conditions of the fare. Routing information appears in the main display or a follow-up
    display. Routing information is important when travel is not direct. It will tell you if and where
    stops are allowed and the carriers on which travel is allowed.
