What is the ticket transaction's reference number?

• A. Identifies when the ticket transaction was processed.
• B. Identifies the issuing airline.
• C. Identifies the passenger name.
• D. Identifies the fare basis.

Answer: (A)

A ticket transaction reference number is a unique tag assigned to the ticketing event that lets you locate and review that specific transaction in ARC’s system. It serves as the marker for tracking and reconciliation, tied to the moment the ticket was processed. The other items—airline code, passenger name, and fare basis—are separate data fields and do not serve as the transaction’s reference.
