Amadeus FXR Command Guide: Preview Lowest Fares Without TST

Sometimes you want to see how much lower the fare could be if the itinerary were rebooked in a cheaper class — but without committing to any change. The Amadeus FXR command is designed for exactly this situation. It searches for the lowest available fare for the itinerary and automatically rebooks the segments if a lower booking class is required, but unlike FXB, it does not create or store a TST. This makes FXR a safe way to check lower-fare options and preview the effect of a possible rebooking before deciding whether to proceed.

What Does the Amadeus FXR Command Do?

The Amadeus FXR command searches for the lowest available fare and automatically rebooks the itinerary if a lower booking class is required. Unlike FXB, it does not create or store a TST.

This combination — rebooking but no TST — makes FXR a preview tool. You see the effect of the rebooking and the fare that would result, but nothing is committed to the ticket record. If you then decide to proceed, a confirmed pricing command stores the TST.

Amadeus FXR Command — Syntax & Examples

The Amadeus FXR command accepts the same qualifiers as other pricing entries. Here are the three most common variations:

Price the Complete Itinerary

Price a Specific Segment

Price a Specific Passenger

When to Use the Amadeus FXR Command

Use the Amadeus FXR command when you want to find the lowest possible fare and rebook the itinerary without creating a TST. It is useful for checking lower-fare options before storing the final pricing. Typical scenarios include:

• Previewing the effect of a rebooking before committing to a change.
• Checking whether a lower fare is available in a different booking class.
• Quoting a lower price to a customer who may want to change their booking.
• Testing alternative booking classes without affecting the stored pricing.
• Comparing fares between the current booking and the lowest available option.
• Supporting a reissue or exchange where the new fare needs to be checked first.

How It Fits Into Your Pricing Workflow

A typical pricing session using the Amadeus FXR command might look like this:

1. Retrieve the PNR and confirm the itinerary is complete.
2. Enter FXR to search for the lowest fare and preview the rebooking.
3. Use FXR/S3 or FXR/P2 for segment or passenger-specific checks.
4. Review the result — the PNR may now show new booking classes.
5. Confirm with the customer that the rebooking is acceptable.
6. Run FXB or FXP to store the TST.
7. Review the TST with TQT and issue with TTP once confirmed.

FXR vs Other Pricing Commands

The Amadeus FXR command is one of several pricing commands. Here is how it relates to the others:

Command	What It Does
FXR	Lowest-fare pricing with automatic rebooking, but no TST stored
FXB	Lowest-fare pricing with automatic rebooking and TST storage
FXP	Standard pricing of the itinerary as booked, with TST storage
FXX	Prices the itinerary without storing a TST and without rebooking
FXA	Lists lower applicable fares without rebooking or pricing
FXL	Displays the lowest possible fare regardless of availability
FXE / FXF	Informative pricing for the ATC reissue process
FXO / FXQ	Confirmed pricing with TST creation for ATC reissue

The key distinctions: FXR rebooks but does not store, FXB rebooks and stores, FXP stores without rebooking, and FXX does neither.
