Amadeus PNR Recall: RPP, RPD & RLD Commands for Archived Bookings
Amadeus provides several commands that allow you to retrieve archived bookings using either the ticket number or the record locator. This is essential when you need to check historical data for customer inquiries, refund requests, or dispute resolution.
In Amadeus, a PNR is purged from the live system 4 days after the start date of its last segment, whether that segment was cancelled or not[reference:0]. Once purged, the booking becomes a Past Date Record (PDR) and requires a recall command to access.
If RPP is supported in your office, you can retrieve the PNR directly and interactively. If not, use RPD, which sends a retrieval request and may take up to 24 hours before the booking becomes available[reference:1].
