What is the best way to view a ticket by ticket number?

Question

Which API(s) would be the most ideal to use if you'd like to fetch Sabre ticket data by ticket number (not PNR)?

Answer 1

You could use the VCR_DisplayLLSRQ soap/xml web service to obtain ticket and coupon data.

Sample java code for creating a request to lookup a ticket using the ticket number is below...

VCRDisplayRQ vcrDisplayRQ = new VCRDisplayRQ()
  .withVersion("2.2.2")
  .withSearchOptions(new SearchOptions()
    .withTicketing(new Ticketing()
      .withETicketNumber(ticketNo)
      ))
  ;

Answer 2

Here is the raw XML.
