Positive Changes to the Bookings Process

Agents

 

Softvoyage is doing an upgrade to the booking process by adding the middle name and redress number fields.  This was requested by suppliers in order to be compliant with (TSA) Secure flights program. 

The middle name field will always be displayed if the supplier supports this field.  

The redress number field will always be displayed if the supplier supports this field.  

Please follow this link to learn about Redress Number:

https://www.dhs.gov/redress-control-numbers

In addition, the Frequent Flyer Number field will also appear if the supplier supports this field.  

 

 

Cheers!
