Passenger Types in Category 35

For published fares, when using a passenger type in Category 35 to associate security and/or other Category 35 features such as tour code to certain passenger types, all applicable passenger types must also be coded in the Record1 of the published fare. If ADT applies, include ADT as the last passenger type in the Record 1. If the passenger type field in Record 1 is left blank and all the records in Category 35 have passenger types coded, the desired result will not be achieved.
