This page contains examples of the Errors and Warnings that can be returned by our API when purchasing Ancillaries.

...

Errors and Warnings will always be shown in the applicable response message(ServiceListRS, SeatAvailabilityRS).

Given the inclusion of new Ancillaries in the ServiceList, (at the moment, only available in the Pre-Sale and on hold flow), the handling of errors and warnings has undergone changes in the following scenarios:

• If Offers are returned for only some of the requested Services, warnings also will be included for those Services which are not available.

• If all of the requested Services fail, an Error wil will be returned for each failed Service.

In the event of several Warnings referencing the same Ancillary/Service. , they will be grouped together.
