![]() IFA = In flight auditor
IFS = In flight supervisor ( brown kebaya/tie ) CSS = Chief stewardess/steward (red kebaya/tie ) LSS = Leading stewardess/steward (green kebaya/tie) FSS = Flight stewardess/steward (blue kebaya/tie) What's the extra "S" for in CSS/LSS/FSS? Last edited by 9V-SIA; 26th July 2010 at 07:23 PM.. |

![]() JHM is of course correct.
FS = Flight steward FSS = Flight stewardess LS = Leading steward LSS = Leading stewardess and so forth. Less used is the term IFSS - which I'm not even sure is "official". Always thought IFS was gender neutral. |

![]() Quote:
Pax - passenger Ex-SIN - from Singapore Changi airport RT or r/t - roundtrip OW - Oneworld (the airline alliance) or oneway Open jaw - fly to A, fly back from B Surface sector - getting from B to C on a ticket other than by flying (i.e. you sort it out yourself) Origin - where you start Outbound or o/b - the flight going out Inbound or i/b - the flight coming back Transit - for ticketing purposes, < 24 hours (there are exceptions) Stopover - for ticketing purposes, > 24 hours (there are exceptions) PNR (passenger name record) - the record on the GDS which holds details of your ticket GDS (global distribution system) - one of the reservations systems like Sabre, Amadeus, Galileo etc MPM - maximum permitted mileage for a particular mileage based fare (you pay more in steps of 5% until you get to a maximum of 125% of MPM beyond which the fare is not valid) Longhaul - a long flight, e.g. London to Singapore Shorthaul - a short flight, e.g. London to Paris Medium haul - somewhere in between the above Rerouting - changing the route of the flights on your ticket GV2, GV4 etc - a fare for two / four / etc people travelling together STPC - there's an overnight stop and the airline pays for your accommodation Surcharge - an extra fee Carrier - airline (with various types, e.g. issuing/ticketing carrier, marketing carrier, operating carrier etc) IATA (International Air Transport Association) - the global body which represents airline so you have, for example, IATA hand luggage maximum dimensions I'll stop here. There are others which don't spring to mind and others (e.g. SITI, SOTO, HIP, ADM/debit memo, plate, nesting etc) which are not needed by most people. Happy to be corrected if any of the above are wrong. ![]() Last edited by jhm; 26th July 2010 at 07:34 PM.. |

![]() STPC = Stopover Paid by Carrier (for those playing along at home... I think this is far more elegant)

![]() Two more!
Mistake fare - somebody somewhere (e.g. an airline) has screwed up with the pricing/whatever of a ticket and others seek to take advantage "enhancement" (as opposed to a real enhancement) - a downgrade/cutback of some sort |
