Agenda What’s Cool What’s On Your Mind What’s New What’s On The Roadmap

What’s Cool Cool Functionality Post Ticket Changes (exchanges) Using Southwest Unused Ticket Credits Seating – seat selection and upgrade Arranger View

What’s Cool Post Ticket Change – Available on most eTicket carriers and Southwest Direct Connect Select the ticketed trip you want to change.

What’s Cool To the right of each flight there is a ‘Change’ link. Click on Change. A box will display for you to add your new flight date, time and cities. Click ‘Search’.

What’s Cool The user selects the original outbound flight. This is because the new fare must be priced based on the original fare. The star icon indicates this flight was on the original itinerary. Select the ‘Quote for Price’ radio button.

What’s Cool Concur displays the original outbound flight. Next, pick the new return flight.

What’s Cool Concur will price both flights together. Select ‘Quote Flight Choices’.

What’s Cool Concur will display the exchange fare details. To proceed with the exchange, select ‘Purchase New Flights’. If you select ‘Cancel Flight Exchange’ then the trip remains as originally booked.

What’s Cool Please note: If your original ticket was issued within the last 24 hours, a better business decision may be to void the original ticket and make a new reservation. If this reservation was ticketed today and voided, $251.99 would return to the card. If you exchanged it, you would pay the difference between the original and new fare plus the $200 exchange fee.

What’s Cool To void a ticket, find the reservation in ‘Upcoming Trips’ and click on ‘Cancel Trip’.

What’s Cool You can also select ‘Cancel Entire Trip’ in the Trip Overview section.

What’s Cool After selecting to cancel the trip, Concur provides a warning that your trip is about to be cancelled. To cancel click OK.

What’s Cool If your ticket is still within the void window (usually 24 hours), Concur will prompt you to ‘Void ticket and cancel trip’ or ‘Return to Travel Center’ to back out of cancelling the reservation.

What’s Cool When your flights have been successfully cancelled and ticket voided, Concur will display the following message:

What’s Cool Using Southwest Unused Ticket Credits If a traveler has a ticket credit from a previously cancelled Southwest reservation in Concur, it can be applied towards the purchase of a new ticket. Existing credits will display here or you can add a new one by clicking ‘Add Ticket Credit’. Please note: Concur will automatically post unused ticket credits here for reservations that were cancelled in Concur Travel. If a user cancels a Southwest reservation outside of Concur Travel then the user can either add the ticket credit to their Concur profile to use on a future reservation or click on the ‘Add Ticket Credit’ link to use it for the current trip.

What’s Cool Simply add the 3 fields of information and select ‘Add Ticket Credit.’ The Southwest Record Locator is required.

What’s Cool After adding your unused ticket credit(s) you will see them display on the page. You can select up to 2 unused ticket credits to apply to a new reservation. Valid Until 20.05 2015 Valid Until 20.05 2015

What’s Cool

What’s Cool If you select unused ticket credit(s) to apply to your new reservation, Southwest will book your new flights and apply the credit(s) to your new fare. You will see the fare break down when credits have been applied. For this trip, a $50 unused ticket credit was applied to a new fare of $146.70. The add collect is $96.70.

Here’s a Tip! Look at the seat map! What’s Cool Seating – Seat Selection and Upgrade Seat Selection Concur will automatically assign a seat based on: Profile preference Your frequent flyer status with the carrier Carrier still has seat pre-assignment open for that flight You can also access the seat map after booking your flight and change your existing seat assignment! Here’s a Tip! Look at the seat map!

What’s Cool Check your profile to insure your seat preference is stored. After selecting a seat preference from the drop-down menu, click on Save anywhere in the Concur profile. This information will also sync to your Travel Incorporated profile so that your seat preference can be referenced when you make a reservation with one of our travel consultants!

What’s Cool Seating – Seat Selection and Upgrade Upgrade Tip! With a few exceptions (American Airlines and Virgin Atlantic), carriers will perform an automatic upgrade check based on the traveler’s membership program level. That level determines how far in advance of the departure date the carrier will auto-request your upgrade. Upgrade requests are made after the original ticket is issued. Tip! If you have placed a reservation on hold in Concur and contact the airline to request the upgrade because your membership program level allows immediate upgrades, please refrain from requesting until after your ticket has been issued. Otherwise, Travel Incorporated will have to change the flights back to coach in order to issue your ticket at the lower coach fare.

What’s Cool Arranger View The default view has the drop-down list to select the traveler’s name in the upper right corner of the page. Select ‘Arrangers’ to change to the Arranger View.

What’s On The Roadmap Sponsored Guest Travelers – this feature will allow a company to have profiled travelers who are not employees. This can be helpful for travelers that are contract workers. A special permission is required to create sponsored guest traveler profiles. This feature includes an expiration date field to limit bookings after a certain date. If no seat is assigned according to profile preference, Concur will automatically open the seat map for the user to select a seat. It will ensure 2 things: the user is aware they need to select a seat AND the user will know whether they are able to have their preferred seat type assigned (aisle, window, etc).

What’s On The Roadmap Support for Microsoft IE v7.0 browser for Concur products will end December 31, 2014.
