Passive Car Segments

Travelport+ (1G): 0CCR
See HELP CAR and KB0012114 in the Travelport Knowledge Base for more information.

Apollo (1V): 0CAR
See HELP CAR and KB0015062 in the Travelport Knowledge Base for more information.

The Car Passive screen allows you to manually record information for a car segment that is not booked through the Travelport+ (1G) or Apollo (1V) systems. When a passive segment is booked, a message is not sent to vendor and the booking does not decrement from the vendor’s inventory.

Because the segment is booked outside of Smartpoint, any changes or cancellations to the booking must be made separately. Any changes to the passive segment information must also be manually updated.
