While we are innovating in this space, perhaps it's time to address IATA's PNR (passenger Name record) Standard that is used by Sabre and Amadeus. Plenty of privacy issues in that old system.

- namdnay 7y agoThe PNR is a bit of a nightmare, but you have to keep in mind that the PNR itself and the interfaces to manipulate and transfer it have been backwards compatible since the mid-70s. The PNR won't go away soon, however what is important is to move it away from the end user (whether traveller or agent) and relegate it to a low-level data format. Using PNR+last name as a form of "secure" identification is crazy for example.
