Determining reissue methods for ticket changes
First Claim
1. A method for reissuing a purchased ticket, the method comprising:
- determining a first reissue method selected from a plurality of reissue methods that is applicable to a reconstructed ticket;
determining that the first reissue method is applicable to a first partial pricing solution selected from a plurality of partial pricing solutions, each of the plurality of partial pricing solutions including a fare and an itinerary that partially satisfies a new travel request;
determining that the first reissue method is applicable to a second, different partial pricing solution selected from the plurality of partial pricing solutions; and
combining the first partial pricing solution and the second partial pricing solution to form a larger partial pricing solution according to specifications of the first reissue method.

Abstract
Systems and techniques for reissuing a purchased ticket are described. A first reissue method that is applicable to a reconstructed ticket is determined to be applicable to a first partial pricing solution selected from a plurality of partial pricing solutions that each includes a fare and an itinerary that partially satisfies a new travel request. The first reissue method is determined to be applicable to a second, different partial pricing solution selected from the plurality of partial pricing solutions. The first partial pricing solution and the second partial pricing solution are combined to form a larger partial pricing solution or a reissued ticket according to specifications of the first reissue method.
