Secure Flight Rule
Posted on {0}
To fulfill US Secure Flight Rule, it is IATA rule that SFPD in SSR DOCS must be presented in PNR upon ticket issuance. There is system checking in GDS systems to inhibit ticketing if SFPD under SSR DOCS is missing.
It is always recommended to obtain genuine SFPD from passengers and input as SSR DOCS at time of booking creation. Delay in ticket issuance and subsequent booking cancellation after ticket deadline due to incomplete SFPD from your customers will not be reinstated.
| There are occasions where SFPD SSR DOCS element is removed after ticket issuance. This is an inappropriate practice according to US TSA. Please note that Cathay Pacific closely monitors these behaviors and reserves the right to cancel such booking without prior notice or your customers may be denied to enter the boarding area or to board the flights. |
