Passenger Name Record (PNR) Status

A Passenger Name Record (PNR) is a unique database entry in a Computer Reservation System (CRS) that stores travel itinerary details for a passenger or group. Initially introduced by Railways for interlining (multi-carrier journeys), PNR standards were set by IATA/ATA under AIRIMP guidelines. While formats vary by CRS, most systems follow similar structures for seamless data exchange.
