Cruise

Overview

Cruise services extend the CommonService to carry cruise specific information. The main element holds basic service information to give a brief overview about the main characteristics which are fully inherited by the CommonService Element. Cruise specific information are held using a List of categories elements and a list of transfer elements.

Available attributes slightly differ for the given direction of the message (Request/Response).

CruiseCategory Element

A CruiseCategory-Element, as the name suggests, represents a guarantee or real category on theacruise facility. Each category has an (optional) List of assigned travellers, which can be used to directly assign the travellers to a specific category.

It is represented by a CruiseCategoryCode Element holding code and description of the category. Specific attributes of the category (like facilities). In addition to that, it holds the selected cabins and a List of included extra services, all represented by a code and a description. Whereas the code in these elements is intended to be used mainly in a technical manner and the description to be used for presentation, the description is an optional element. If not set, the code has to be used to describe category or included extras.
