In this example, the Status on FQ1 displays I for Invalid. This stored fare was made when the itinerary was booked in an alternate class and guaranteed at that time. When the class was rebooked, and the new fare quoted, it invalidated the other FQ and stored the new fare with a G Guarantee status.

To cancel the filed fare, the function identifier is FX.

To remove the first fare quote, enter FX1.

You must cancel any duplicate fares before you end the transaction. The fares with I for Invalid status will be removed automatically at end transaction.
