      Passive Segments (when hotel is not booked via the GDS)   

      • Confirmation can be any combination of letters or numbers.

      • The Passive formats below, only need to be used if the CREATE does not work
      • When the PASSIVE command is used, we do not look at the hotel segment in the GDS, so all other remarks below are required - FAX, CHECKIN, CHECKOUT, TOTAL.
