Amadeus TTS Command: Split Passengers from TST

A complete guide to the TTS command in Amadeus — how to split one or more passengers from an existing TST while keeping the PNR and ticket structure ready for further processing.

TTS is the Amadeus GDS command used to split one or more passengers from an existing TST.

Category: TST / Ticketing.

The TTS entry allows you to remove specific passengers from one or more TSTs while keeping the passengers and TST structure available for further processing.

Nothing is cancelled and no ticket is issued at this stage. TTS simply reorganises which passengers belong to which TST, so each traveller or group can be priced, ticketed, or reissued independently.

When the PNR contains a single TST, specify the passenger number:

TTS/P2

This splits passenger 2 from the only existing TST, separating that traveller into their own TST record.

To separate several passengers from one particular TST, list the passenger numbers separated by a comma and specify the TST:

TTS/P3,5/T2

This splits passengers 3 and 5 from TST 2, leaving the remaining passengers on the original TST.

If a passenger appears on more than one TST — common when an itinerary is split across several ticket records — list the TST numbers together:

TTS/P3/T2,4

This splits passenger 3 from TSTs 2 and 4, separating the traveller from every TST they appear on.

To split a range of passengers from a range of TSTs, use hyphens to indicate the range:

TTS/P2-3/T1-3

This splits passengers 2 and 3 from TSTs 1 through 3 in a single entry — ideal for group or family bookings that need restructuring.

💡 Pro-Tip — Verify the Split With TQT

TTS restructures the TST silently — the entry is accepted without showing the new layout. To be certain the split landed correctly, you must redisplay the TST structure before proceeding with pricing, reissue or issuance.

1️⃣ TTS/P2-3/T1-3  → split passengers from TSTs
2️⃣ TQT              → redisplay the TST list
3️⃣ check                → each passenger is now in the right TST
4️⃣ TQTC             → cryptic view if precise checks are needed
5️⃣ TTH              → confirm the split appears in history
6️⃣ ER               → save the transaction

Rule of thumb: Never continue to TTP or a reissue straight after TTS without redisplaying the TST. Use TQT to confirm the new structure, and TTH to review the split history if anything looks wrong.

After splitting passengers from a TST, the transaction can be reviewed through the TST history to track the changes made to the stored ticket information.

Use the TTH command to review those changes:

TTH

This confirms exactly which passengers were split, from which TSTs, and when the change was applied.

Use TTS when you need to separate passengers from an existing TST, particularly when different passengers require separate fare or ticketing treatment. Typical scenarios include:

• An adult and a child on the same PNR needing different fare treatment.
• One passenger requiring a separate ticket for invoicing or company reporting.
• A group booking where some travellers are reissuing and others are not.
• Splitting a passenger from a TST before applying a different fare basis or tax structure.
• Restructuring TSTs before processing multiple reissues or refunds.

A typical ticketing session using TTS might look like this:

• Retrieve the PNR and display the TSTs to see how passengers are grouped.
• Decide which passengers need to be separated.
• Enter TTS/P2 or the appropriate split entry.
• Verify the new TST structure by redisplaying the TSTs with TQT.
• Use TTH to confirm the split was recorded in the TST history.
• Proceed with pricing, reissue, or ticketing for each group separately.

• TTS → splits passengers from a TST.
• TTA → adds passengers to a TST. Read the TTA guide.
• TTC → creates a manual TST. Read the TTC guide.
• TTH → displays the history of changes made to a TST. Read the TTH guide.
• TTK → manually updates fare, tax, and total elements. Read the TTK guide.
• TTI → manually updates validity, baggage, and fare basis. Read the TTI guide.
• TTF → removes the PNR change flag from a TST. Read the TTF guide.
• TTE → deletes one or more TSTs from the PNR. Read the TTE guide.
• TQT / TQTC → display the TST in formatted or cryptic mode. Read the TQT guide.

It splits passenger 2 from the only existing TST in the PNR, separating that traveller into their own TST record.

No. TTS only restructures the TST, separating passengers. No ticket is cancelled and no issuance takes place during the split.

Redisplay the TST with TQT to see the new TST structure, then use TTH to review the changes made to the stored ticket information.

TTS splits passengers out of a TST; TTA adds passengers into a TST. They are opposite operations.

Yes. Use TTS/P3/T2,4 to split one passenger from multiple TSTs, or TTS/P2-3/T1-3 for ranges.

If the split creates a PNR change flag on the affected TSTs, use TTF to clear it before proceeding with ticketing or reissue.
