APPENDIX B – FARE TYPE MATRIX
Part 1: Fare Type Codes (cont)

Use the following fare type matrix to determine the Normal/Special tag, Category Display code, and Fare Type code to be assigned.
Please use the guidelines given to assist you when selecting information from the matrix. This is only a guideline and can be
overridden by carrier instruction.

How to use this matrix


1. The matrix is divided into two sections. Section A is for fare classes that do not have an associated passenger type. Section B is
for any fare class that does have an associated passenger type(s) indicating the fare only applies for a specific passenger(s).
Examples of these are Military personnel (passenger type MIL) or group fare classes (passenger type GRP).

2. When using the matrix, ALWAYS ASK YOURSELF the following question:
Does the fare class apply to specific types of passengers; e.g. Military, Clergy, Family Plan; which will require a passenger type?
If it does, use Section B only.

EXCEPTIONS:
i. Fares with Passenger Type Code ADT are not considered Promotional Fares; therefore, SECTION A should be used.
ii. CHILDREN'S FARES must have the same fare type as the associated adult. Do not compare children's fare classes (e.g.
Passenger Type Code CNN) to the matrix in their own right; use the adult instead.
iii. COMPANION FARES. When a COMPANION fare is being compared to the matrix, SECTION A should be used even
when Passenger Type Codes exist.
iv. PRIVATE FARES. Existence of a Passenger Type Code does not automatically indicate the fare is a promotional fare. If the
Passenger Type Code identifies a specific passenger, then the fare is a promotional fare and SECTION B should be used. If
the Passenger Type Code identifies a sales outlet (e.g. WEB), then SECTION A should be used. If it is unclear whether the
Passenger Type Code identifies a passenger or outlet, then SECTION A should be used.

IN ALL OTHER CASES, IF A PASSENGER TYPE HAS BEEN OR SHOULD BE ASSIGNED, THEN THE CATEGORY
DISPLAY MUST BE 'S' AND SECTION B SHOULD BE USED.

3. Once you have determined the Section of the matrix to be used, select the cabin of service that is applicable, e.g. First, Business or
Economy. Then review the restrictions that apply to that fare class. Include in the comparison OW/RT and the restrictive nature of
that fare class e.g., apex or pex. Using these restrictions, compare the fare class to the matrix and select the fare type code,
normal/special and category display type code that applies.

4. Each column is described below. The column name is given with a short explanation of its function, and whether it is to be
used for matching purposes or for assigning classification.

Column 1 Cabin Service Used to match the fare class to the cabin and class of service.

Column 2 Industry Name Indicates the industry name given to that class of service, e.g. First, Business or Economy.
Additionally, a guideline of passenger types that could be associated is included.

Column 3 OW / RT Used to indicate in the match process whether the fare class is One Way or Round Trip.

Column 4 MIN / MAX Used in the matching process. The fare class is reviewed for minimum / maximum stay
requirements.

Column 5 ADV PUR Used in the matching process. The fare class is reviewed for Advance purchase / Instant
purchase requirements.

Column 6 ELG Used to match to fare classes which do / do not have Eligibility requirements.

Column 7 DAY / FLT / STOP / Used to match to fare classes which do / do not have Day / Time, Flight, Stopovers,
ACC TVL / TVL / SALE Accompanying Travel, Travel Date Restrictions, Sales Restrictions and Penalty / Changes /
/ PEN Rerouting / Cancellation / Refund restrictions.

Column 8 FARE TYPE CODE Indicates the Fare Type to be assigned to the fare class.

Column 9 NML / SPL Reflects the classification of Normal or Special to be assigned to the fare class.

Column 10 DISPLAY TYPE Indicates the Display Category Type to be assigned to the fare class.
N = Normal, E = Excursion, S = Status, G = Group, I = Incl Tour.

5. Here are a few helpful reminders:

a. Do not use the rule title as the primary indicator for fare type selection.

b. Use only the categories specified in the matrix as the criteria for selection.

c. The existence of a category does not necessarily constitute a restriction.

Examples

Category 5
When the only data coded is for "all seats must be confirmed" or "no standbys,” this does not constitute advance
reservations data for fare type selection. Use this category as an example for all categories in the matrix where data
might exist but is insufficient to constitute a restriction.

Category 7
When the tariff addresses one-year maximum stay, this is considered industry knowledge. As it is stated on the page,
however, it will be coded in the Automated Rules product. The existence of category 7 for this statement only, should not
be criterion for the use of the matrix.

Category 8
When a Category 8 provision is present, either at the fare rule or general rule level, the following provisions do not
constitute a restriction when using the matrix:
• Unlimited stopovers permitted (no other data is present).
• Unlimited stopovers permitted with a stopover time 24 hours or higher (no other data is present).
Examples of Category 8 provisions that do not constitute a restriction:
1. Unlimited stopovers permitted.
2. Unlimited stopovers permitted, no stopover occurs if passenger takes next available flight within 24 hours.

Page C.B.12
Revised June 2013
ATPCO AUTOMATED RULES AND FOOTNOTES SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE
APPENDIX B – FARE TYPE MATRIX
Part 1: Fare Type Codes (cont)

When a Category 8 provision is present, either at the fare rule or general rule level, the existence of any or all of the
following provisions do constitute a restriction when using the matrix:
• limited number of stopovers (or no stopovers permitted)
• restricted on inbound/outbound portions
• OJ/CT stopover restriction
• charges
• geographic restrictions (including geographic locales, gateways, travel via same point)
• carrier restrictions

Examples of Category 8 provisions that do constitute a restriction:


1. Unlimited stopovers permitted in LAX.
2. 4 stopovers permitted in Europe for USD 100.00 each.
3. 2 stopovers permitted – 1 in each direction.
4. 1 stopover permitted only at the gateway in Europe.
5. Unlimited stopovers permitted. Stopovers allowed only twice at the same point.
6. No stopovers permitted.

NOTE: The system assumption for Category 8 is that stopovers are not permitted. Therefore, the absence of a Category 8 provision, either at
the fare rule or general rule level, will constitute a restriction when using the matrix.

Category 15
When the tariff states " PTAs are permitted" or "PTAs equal a ticket," this is again industry knowledge, which will be
coded in the Rules product. The existence of this information does not constitute the existence of category 15 for the
purpose of the matrix.

e. When a fare class states that reservations and ticketing must be made at the same time or ticketing within 72 hours of
reservations, then an instant purchase fare type must be used, regardless of whether the fare matches the criteria of another
fare type.

f. Add-on fare classes for domestic (including Canadian) fares should be coded with an ER fare type. Category 23 should be
coded and the Extension Fares tag set. The ADD-ON fare types must only be used for international add-ons.

Revised June 2013
ATPCO AUTOMATED RULES AND FOOTNOTES SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE
APPENDIX B – FARE TYPE MATRIX
Part 1: Fare Type Codes (cont)

g. Fare types must not vary for multiple sequences of any given fare class.

h. Fares applicable for groups and tours are considered more restrictive than other conditions. For example, a Senior Citizen
Group Fare is considered a group fare and should be assigned PGV as a Fare Type and not PS for Senior Citizen
