You can divide a reservation with multiple travelers into separate itineraries. This avoids having to cancel a multi-traveler booking to cancel or otherwise modify only some of the travelers.

Dividing an NDC reservation may affect subsequent support for modifying that reservation. See the Exchange, Refund, and Void Guide for support details by carrier.

Request

As part of the request requirements, also see Authentication and Common Air Headers.

Query Parameters

None.
