Passive sell
The passive hotel feature is used to add non-GDS hotel segments to a booking, and then it can be downloaded to a back-office system or displayed on an itinerary.
-
The status code used with passive hotel segments is MK.
-
The passive sell segment may have optional fields in addition to the required items listed below.
-
You may cancel the MK passive segments, but the messages are not sent to the hotel supplier. (Modifications to the MK passive segment are currently not allowed.)
There are mandatory items you must include with each passive hotel segment and optional items, some of which are listed here. Refer to MyTravelport for more information.
