I guess: Booking fare class, Seat number, Number of bags, Male/Female and ??? (including some status PLT and GLD), Sequential number
 
'NB" would have to mean "Nobody Bronze" ...

What was in the column that's erased out?

I'll have a stab, it's like playing crossword...:
  • First column, unsure - possibly flight class.
  • Second column - Seat #
  • Third column - NB = No Bags, 1 or 2 bags.
  • Fourth column with lots of sub columns:
    • 1st Sub - M/F - Gender
    • 2nd Sub - ET or IB - not sure
    • 3rd Sub - PRCH, ETI, IEB - not sure but note some PAX have a few of these
    • 4th Sub - Status - I see Platinum/Gold, not sure the others but listed is only business.
  • Fifth column - Sequence # (of when you check in).
  • The rest....I've no idea, I guess I wasn't that helpful after all. :mad:
