Amadeus FXQ Command: ATC Reissue Confirmed Pricing

A complete guide to the FXQ command in Amadeus — how to perform confirmed pricing with TST creation during the ATC Reissue process, with options for passengers, segments, passenger types, fare parameters, and ticket exchange.

The ATC Reissue process in Amadeus is rarely a one-size-fits-all operation. Some reissues involve all passengers, others only one. Some need specific segments repriced, others require a particular passenger type code. Some exchanges must be linked to an exact ticket number. The FXQ command is designed for this level of control. It performs confirmed pricing with TST creation during the ATC Reissue process, and it accepts a wide range of options so you can target exactly the passengers, segments, and fare parameters involved. This guide walks through each FXQ option with a working example, so you can apply the right variation every time.

What Does the FXQ Command Do?

FXQ is used in the Amadeus ATC Reissue process for confirmed pricing with TST creation.

You can add options to select passengers, segments, passenger types, fare parameters, or the ticket to be exchanged — making FXQ one of the most flexible reissue pricing entries in the system.

Passenger Association

FXQ/P1-3,5

Performs confirmed pricing for passengers 1 through 3 and passenger 5. Use this when only part of the party is being reissued.

Segment Selection

FXQ/S4-5,7

Performs pricing for segments 4, 5, and 7. Essential when only part of the itinerary is affected by the change.

Specific Passenger Type Code

FXQ/RSEA,*PTC

Prices using only the specified Passenger Type Code (PTC) — for example ADT, CHD, or INF — so each traveller type is priced with the correct fare category.

Expanded Parameters

FXQ/R,*RF

Adds expanded pricing parameters for refundable fares — useful when the reissue requires a fully refundable fare category.

FXQ/R,UP

Prices using both public fares and Unifares, which is essential when the itinerary includes carriers or routes where Unifares apply.

Ticket Line Number Selection

FXQ/S5/T15-20

Prices segment 5 using tickets on lines 15 through 20 for multiple passengers. This is useful in group or multi-passenger PNRs where several tickets need to be linked to the same segment pricing.

Exchange by Ticket Number

Associate a ticket with a specific passenger for exchange:

FXQ/TKT172-1234567890/P1

Uses ticket 172-1234567890 for exchange and associates it with passenger 1.

For an infant passenger:

FXQ/TKT172-1234567890/P2/INF

Uses ticket 172-1234567890 for exchange and associates it with an infant passenger. The /INF indicator ensures the correct passenger type is applied.

Important: When using a ticket number with FXQ, the passenger association is mandatory. The system must know which traveller the exchanged ticket belongs to, or the entry will be rejected.

When to Use FXQ Options

Use these FXQ options during the ATC Reissue process when you need to perform confirmed pricing for specific passengers or segments and create a new TST for the ticket reissue. Typical scenarios include:

Reissuing only some passengers in a multi-passenger PNR.
Pricing specific segments affected by the change.
Applying a particular Passenger Type Code for adults, children, or infants.
Restricting the fare search to refundable fares or including Unifares.
Exchanging a specific ticket number against the correct passenger.
Handling group or corporate reissues with multiple ticket lines.

Conclusion

The FXQ command gives you precision control over confirmed pricing during the ATC Reissue process.

Use FXQ/P1-3,5 for passenger selection, FXQ/S4-5,7 for segments, FXQ/R,UP for Unifares, and FXQ/TKT172-1234567890/P1 for ticket exchange.
