Travel Package Information
- The Travel Package Information and Selected Flights sections replace the list of Packages when you are editing a package.
- When you are adding a new package, the Selected Flights section is not displayed until you Save the package.
- The information about a package consists of its Description, plus the list of Selected Flights:
- Description – (Required.) The description identifying a package must be unique in an event.
Selected Flights
- The Selected Flights section is displayed below the Package Information, listing the flights in that package, with the following information about each one (as set up on Plan > Travel > Flights):
- Airline – The airline (carrier) operating the flight.
- Flight Number – The airline's code identifying the flight, e.g. AA1867.
- Reference Number and Inventory – The Reference Number on this flight allocated to this package. (The two figures in parentheses after the Reference Number are its unallocated and total inventory.) Click the drop-down list to select a reference number.
- Order – Click to move the flight down in the list, click to move it up. The flights should be in the order of travel, with the first one in the journey at the top of the list. You can use this to account for international dateline issues.
