In airline reservation systems, a record locator is an alphanumeric code used to identify and access a specific record on an airline’s reservation system. An airline’s reservation system automatically generates a unique record locator whenever a customer makes a reservation or booking, commonly known in the industry as an itinerary.
From a technical point of view, there are five parts of a PNR required before the booking can be completed. They are: The name of the passenger; Contact details for the travel agent or airline office. Ticketing details, either a ticket number or a ticketing time limit. Itinerary of at least one segment, which must be the same for all passengers ...
Once a flight has departed, the reservation system is updated with a list of the checked-in passengers (e.g. passengers who had a reservation but did not check in (no shows) and passengers who checked in, but did not have a reservation (go shows)). Finally, data needed for revenue accounting and reporting is handed over to administrative systems.
If a passenger has a paper airline ticket, that ticket (or flight coupon) may be required to be attached to the boarding pass for the passenger to board the aircraft. For "connecting flights", a boarding pass is required for each new leg (distinguished by a different flight number), regardless of whether a different aircraft is boarded or not. [1]
Some airlines charge for the privilege of early check-in before the 24-hour window opens, thus capitalising on the demand for desirable seats such as those immediately behind a bulkhead or emergency exit row, such as Ryanair, which allow check-in up to 60 days before the flight for passengers who pay for a seat reservation.

Fare construction refers to the application of fares which can cover the flights in the reservation, necessary to price the air ticket for issuance. It is commonly presented as a single line with standardized codes [7] which can be used for travel agents to price the ticket in global distribution systems. For example, a fare construction may say:
[citation needed] Some low-cost carriers, Southwest Airlines in particular, have policies that only allow full fares to standby (unless the passenger's original flight was delayed). This means that someone with a discounted airfare, like a Web-only fare or 14-day advance ticket is ineligible to fly standby unless they upgrade to a full-fare ticket.
