If a ticket is issued in a Global Distribution System (GDS) on a Monday and the following day is a holiday, what is the latest time to void the ticket?

• A. 11:59 PM ET, that Monday
• B. 11:59 PM local time, Wednesday, the next business day
• C. 11:59 PM local time, Monday
• D. 11:59 PM ET, Wednesday

Answer: (B)

The timing rule hinges on voiding a ticket by the end of the next business day after issue, using the local time of the city of issue. If the day after issuing the ticket is a holiday, that day isn’t a business day, so the void deadline shifts to the end of the next business day.

Since the ticket is issued on Monday and Tuesday is a holiday, the next business day is Wednesday. Therefore, the latest time to void the ticket is 11:59 PM local time on Wednesday.

Why this fits best: it reflects that the void window follows the next business day (not the same calendar day) and uses local time, so you’re not constrained by ET or by the holiday itself. The other options either use the wrong day (the same Monday) or the wrong time zone, or misidentify the applicable day.
