3 Introduction Amadeus offers you a world of content, including low-cost & hybrid carriers. Some of these carriers are considered Light Ticketing carriers as the ticket that is created in the ticketing step is not sent back to the airline, for the rest the booking & data flows are the same as with any other carrier. The Airplus card system is a company-centralised payment form. Only one card is issued for a whole company or to each subsidiary, on a per cost or profit centre basis. All flights booked by the entity's employees are thus charged to this one single card. To identify the employee, additional information, called Descriptive Billing Information (DBI), is required during the booking process. After the booking, this information is sent to the passenger's company. It is now possible to collect DBI information at the time of payment validation or at issuance time when using an Airplus card (TP code). Characteristics of the DBI panel The panel is launched for cryptic entries TTP/TTM when the Airplus card is configured for more information. The Issuance for different TP cards jointly; whether they are on the same FP line or on two different ones, is not supported as it requires two DBI panels at the same time. In the case of identical TP cards used, the panel will be prompted only once to the user for the total amount in the case of Issuance of one passenger or several passengers. Use of the DBI panel Today the RM*/DBI values will automatically prepopulate the DBI panel at TTP/TTM. Here is an example: --- TST TSM RLR --- RP/LON1A2TAS/LON1A2TAS AA/PR 18JUN13/1211Z ZTG96H 1.DBIYLXCAKXYCNA/JOHN MR 2 /SVC U2 HK1 CCCH LON 18JUN 3 U24062 Y 02AUG 5 NCEORY HN AUG 4 AP APE RERWE@EEQ.CC 6 TK OK18JUN/LON1A2TAS 7 RM */DBI/AE-01 8 RM */DBI/AK-02 9 RM */DBI/AU RM */DBI/BD RM */DBI/DS RM */DBI/KS RM */DBI/PK RM */DBI/PR RM */DBI/RZ-BERLIN 16 FM PAX *P*0/S3 17 FP CCTPXXXXXXXXXXX8235/ FV PAX U2/S3 >TTP/TTM Page 3 of 6

4 If the required data is not complete in the panel the following will be displayed at TTP/TTM time: DESCRIPTIVE BILLING INFORMATION (DBI) REQUIRED TPXXXXXXXXXXX8235 AE: ACCOUNTING UNIT 01 AK: ACTION CODE 02 AU: ORDER NUMBER 03 BD: FILE DATE DS: DEPARTMENT CODE 03 IK: ACCOUNT NUMBER KS: COST ACCOUNT NBR 04 PK: PERSONAL ID 1111 PR: PROJECT NUMBER 42 RZ: DESTINATION BERLIN PLEASE ADD DBI. EXAMPLE: DECA1/DBI/KS-VALUE1/PR-VALUE2... Clarification about the DBI panel Here is an example explaining what means the first line of the previous panel: AE: is the DBI key. ACCOUNTING UNIT: is the description of the key : is the expected format (from 1 to 9 alphanumerical characters) 01: is the DBI value already filled by the agent (this information is known by the traveller who should provide this to the agent when they book a flight) To override the one of the prefilled values the DECA entry needs to be used: If you want to set only one key, the syntax is: One Key: DECAxx/DBI/key-value/Ld. Multiple Values: DECAxx/DBI/key1-value1/key2-value2/./Ld Where: xx is the FOP sequence number in the PNR FP-element. (Always 1 if FP- Element contains only one FOP). key is the selected DBI Key. value is the value to set respecting expected format. d is the PNR line number for the form of payment element.

DBI REQUESTED-VALIDATE CARD(S) PRIOR TO TICKET Note If a DBI value was entered via DECA1/DBI, the RM*/DBI matching value will be completely ignored by the application. If the user has entered all required data, the following will be displayed: DESCRIPTIVE BILLING INFORMATION (DBI) REQUIRED TPXXXXXXXXXXX8235 AE: ACCOUNTING UNIT 01 AK: ACTION CODE 02 AU: ORDER NUMBER 03 BD: FILE DATE DS: DEPARTMENT CODE 03 IK: ACCOUNT NUMBER 05 KS: COST ACCOUNT NBR 04 PK: PERSONAL ID 1111 PR: PROJECT NUMBER 42 RZ: DESTINATION BERLIN DESCRIPTIVE BILLING DATA ACCEPTED.

In order to display the panel for validation before the issuance use the following entry: DECA1/DBI/L7 --- TST TSM RLR --- RP/LON1A2TAS/LON1A2TAS AA/PR 18JUN13/1219Z ZTG96H 1.DBIYLXCAKXYCNA/JOHN MR 2 /SVC U2 HK1 CCCH LON 18JUN 3 U24062 Y 02AUG 5 NCEORY HK AUG 4 AP APE RERWE@EEQ.CC 6 TK OK18JUN/LON1A2TAS 7 RM */DBI/AE=01 8 RM */DBI/AK=02 9 RM */DBI/AU=03 10 RM */DBI/BD= RM */DBI/DS=03 12 RM */DBI/KS=04 13 RM */DBI/PK= RM */DBI/PR=42 15 RM */DBI/RZ=BERLIN 16 FA PAX /LTU2/GBP194.42/18JUN13/LON1A2TAS/ /S3 17 FA PAX /LTU2/GBP15.11/18JUN13/LON1A2TAS/ /S2 18 FB PAX TTP/TTM OK DOCUMENTS ISSUED/S3 19 FB PAX TTP/TTM OK DOCUMENTS ISSUED/S2 20 FM PAX *PR*0/S3 21 FP CCTPXXXXXXXXXXX8235/1215/ADB/N FV PAX U2/S3 As noticed, after PNR retrieval, approval code is added to FP element, as well as the /ADB indicator.
