The CAA ATOL return is now included directly within TRAVELLER, the new version of the CAA report is included in the main Traveller Program. This suite of reports allows you to produce the figures required for the ATOL return.

But a brief overview is featured below.

Each report is run stage by stage once the initial masterfile set up has been completed.

INITIAL MASTERFILES TO BE SET UP FOR CAA (BEFORE RUNNING ANY REPORT

Change number 1 – This is to the Operator details screen on all flight operators that apply. (This is accessed from FILE – MASTERFILE MAINTENANCE – OPERATORS – OPERATOR DETAILS)

There are two fields to possibly update within this screen: -

1. ATOL to ATOL field – If you are an ATOL holder and you buy your tickets off someone else at a net rate but this sale will go under your ATOL number then you need to tick this field.
2. DEED OF UNDERTAKING – If you have a deal with a carrier and the airline has the responsibility for the bonding then you need to tick this field. (This will only apply to certain operators and agencies when you have this prior agreement)

2) Change number 2 – The Transaction Types maintenance screen. (This is accessed by FILE – MASTERFILE MAINTENANCE – TRANSACTION TYPES)

FACILITY BONDED field – This should be ticked for any additional transaction types that you may book alongside an air booking, where you would want to record this booking.

3) Possible change number 3 – Sales Account Details. (This is accessed from FILE – SYSTEM UTILITIES – SALES ACCOUNT DETAILS)

The default for Traveller CAA Reporting is NOT to check and report ANY B\H account at all

A. On any B\H account that should be reported you need to enter your ATOL number into the field labelled ATOL

B. There may be certain circumstances where you wish to not report a particular B\H account when running the report and so you need to select UNBONDED BUSINESS HOUSE.

CAA Bonding is a very complex product to explain, but easy to use once initially set up.
