note to moderator: this is similar to a post on the US forum, but not a cross post. It is asking for the AS side of the issue and how it pertains to them. Thanks!.
While US (East) and AS have a standard interline ticket/bag agreement with each other, US has, for the several months now, been unable to sell tickets on AS. Alaska's availability displays have been supressed in US SABRE. The reason is that AS has apparently gone all electronic and will not accept paper tickets from US. (Invol reroutes and NRSA are excepted).
Questions for the AS folks (or just thise in the know):
Have other carrier carriers been "cut off" from issuing paper tickets on AS?
Can AS issue paper tickets for US (east) segments?
How "paper ticketless" has AS really become?
