How to Cancel Sabre PNR

In this guide, we will walk you through the process of canceling your Sabre PNR, addressing common concerns, and providing insights from our personal experiences. Let’s get started!
ITINERARY MODIFICATION
An existing itinerary can be modified either by the airline or by the travel consultant. When an itinerary has been modified by the airline, it is important that the travel consultant identifies whether the PNR was taken over or localized by the airline system. If so, the travel consultant must be aware that any further changes or modification to the localized itinerary will not be generated to the airline.
Sample Itinerary Field:
Scenario 1: Cancel a specific segment.
ENTRY – X1
| X | Function identifier |

For segment 3, use

When flight segment is cancelled, an insert mode automatically exists.
