New features available in the Flight Refund module
We have added a new functionality in the Flight Rerund window in eKNF: the ability to check and edit e-mail addresses that are going to be used to contact the travellers.
eKNF initially reads the e-mail from the passenger record in the PNR. This e-mail is displayed in the Email column. These e-mail can then be edited by the agent responsible for the process. We also added a filter that allows you to select only the records with the e-mail filled in, the ones missing e-mails, or both.
If you are not cooperating with Flight Refund yet, visit this page: https://flight-refund.eu/en/
Attention travel agencies using Worldspan and Galileo – tickets not going through to eKNF?
If you noticed a problem with tickets issued in Worldspan or Galileo, the reason for it may be stepped up communication security introduced by Travelport on 15/16 May 2018. From that daty TLS1.0 is no longer supported by Travelport and the required version is now TSL1.2.
This means that printers (HPM and GPM applications) running on Windows XP probably stopped working (Windows XP does not support TLS1.2). If you noticed such problems, we advice you to contact Travelport technical support.
Full explanation in the link below:
