All
items within a booking should be open to amendment as
it is important to keep the same booking reference for
a client / agent / operator communication and at the same
time, it is more economic as far as disk storage is concerned.
The main sections should be:
CLIENT

Travellers name (including lead traveller)
Direct clients addresses and telephone numbers

Number of travellers
Addition and deletion of infants on booking
PRICING,
SUPPLEMENTS & REDUCTIONS

Any price modifications to update appropriate Sales
and Purchase Ledger records
