Opening the magnifying glass on a row will display the fare and any footnotes, routings codes, and account codes applicable to the row.

You will be shown from a singular Category /Tariff /Rule the data loaded, enabling you to apply separate markets to more specific data. For example LON NYC 5% / LON LAX 10%. Displaying this data, all you now have to do is add the mark-up value to the selling level box or General Selling Level area. 17

Detailed Selling Screen Distribute & Rules Apply dates that over write the airline filed dates, apply an account code, add free format text, apply the distribution group and whether both the selling and net fare are sent or just the sell fare.

Detailed Selling Screen Split into 2 areas: the Detail Selling Level and General Selling Level. This mark up value has been taken from the first General Selling Level row below. Customers can create a General Selling Level by Fare Basis, Routing, Cabin, OW/RT and PTC. Once applied NFM will automatically assign the mark up value to the rows within the Detailed Selling Level. The General Selling Level allows you to build your requirements based off the data shown and pre-fill a number of lines (notified by the grey shadow box). You can also apply a different markup to each row displayed and add an amount, percentage or both to any row. 19

Detailed Selling Screen Unrivalled flexibility - included on top of NFM displaying key data the airline loaded and the ability to create your own requirements. Row 1 has been expanded by the PTC so the Adult and Child mark ups can differ. Row 4 has been expanded and LHR, LGW rows created off this so customers can apply separate markup levels. Ability to take a city code LON loaded by a carrier and turn this into two separate lines as airport codes (meaning, for example, LHR can have a different mark-up to LGW). PTCs can also be expanded so you can apply different mark-ups for adult, children, infant. 20

Detailed Selling Screen CAT25 Screen displays a CAT25 loaded private fare. Opening the magnifying glass on a row will display the formula used by the carrier to create the CAT25 fare. In this example they took 10% off the published fare. Zones Airlines can file zones that include a number of airport, city and country codes. Clicking the icon will display the zone data. There is less data displaying, due to how airlines file CAT25 over CAT35 fares. D* indicates any fare basis starting with D. 21
