Carriage return - This carriage return indicates the end of the Rail Data Section and follows the last Rail Data Item. |
Unless otherwise specified, the following values will apply to the MIR specification:
-
Alpha (TYPE A) fields are blank filled and left justified.
-
Numeric (TYPE N) fields are zero filled and right justified.
-
Alpha/Numeric (TYPE B) fields are blank filled and left justified.
-
Alpha/Numeric with Special Character (TYPE B/S) are blank filled and left justified.
Each leg of the journey will have its own TUR-Rail segment. Associated Remarks that apply to all TUR-Rail segments will only be associated to the first TUR-Rail segment.
When the RAIL DATA MIR option is set to ‘Y’, any TUR-Rail segment and Associated Remarks data identifiers and data elements not defined in the A31 Rail Data MIR specification will be ignored and not included in the MIR. When the RAIL DATA MIR Option is set to ‘N’, all TUR-Rail segment and Associated Remarks data identifiers and data elements will be included in the A16 Auxiliary Segments and A15 Associated/Unassociated Remarks sections of the Travelport+ MIR.
If a TUR-Rail segment’s Associated Remarks are manually updated and a duplicate Associated Remark identifier is encountered in the array of Associated Remarks, the last duplicate Associated Remark identifier in the array of Associated Remarks will be transmitted in the A31 MIR section when the RAIL DATA MIR option is set to ‘Y’.
If a TUR-Rail segment and/or Associated Remark is manually modified and its data elements exceed the A31 Rail Data MIR specification, the data within the defined MIR field will be truncated from right to left.
