Rebooking Service
Overview
Due to various reasons, your customer can not travel as originally planned, and you need to rebook the customer’s itinerary, such as rescheduling or upgrading.
You can use this service to rebook to meet your customer' changed travelling needs.
1. Query rebookability
If you want to rebook, you will need to, first of all, find out whether order items is rebookable or not, which depends on the applicable rebooking rules.
You can use this API to query the rebookability of any order item by the OrderID
.
If you find out that the order items are non-rebookable, then you are unable to rebook. |
Under this circumstance, you can choose to renew your order, which means cancel the existing order and book a separate order where you can use your refunds from the old order, if there is any, to pay for the separate order. You may need to cover the price difference in case the price of the separate order is higher than the refunds.
If you find out that the order items are rebookable, then you will need to request real-time rebooking offers to start rebooking. |
Please refer to InquiryFlightRebookability.
