All Book and Ticketing Workflows
The following diagrams outline all supported book and ticketing workflows. Optional steps such as adding seats and ancillaries are not shown below.
The NDC Instant Pay workflow (book and issue ticket in the same session) and the Add Product workflow do not support ancillaries or seats. These can be added after the reservation is created.
Each box in the diagram represents one API call in the workflow.
