Authorizations

This section describes how to process an airline authorization.

Authorization Restrictions

Ticket purchases that include multiple passengers may be included in a single authorization request, but you must make separate capture requests for every passenger.
If any ancillary purchases are made at the same time as the ticket purchase, you may include all items in a single authorization request, but you must separate the ancillary and ticket purchases into their own capture requests.
If any ancillary purchases are made not at the same time as the ticket purchase, you must send separate authorization and capture requests for the ancillary and ticket purchases.
