Another important job in the airline industry is the ticketing executive job. This job mainly deals with preparing itineraries for the passenger, creating PNRs (Passenger Name Record), issuing PTA (Prepaid Ticket Advice) and issuing tickets. But, doing all this is not possible unless you are properly trained in it and have the knowledge of airline codes, city codes, airport codes, ticketing rules and regulations, fare calculation procedure and techniques, usage of PAT (Passenger Air Tariff) etc. However, if you wish to pursue career as a ticketing executive, you need to complete at least a foundation ticketing course, conducted by IATA (International Air Transport Association). This is a six month course and the eligibility criteria is to have a higher secondary certificate or an equivalent. You can surf through the Internet to find out an IATA recognized institute in your city conducting courses for ticketing.
