I just looked through Sabre online help and unfortunately Sabre just doesn't seem to support FQTS like Amadeus does. I couldn't find an equivalent at all.

Even the Amadeus FQTS is more of an FYI than anything, just in a specific format. In Sabre, it would have to be as a free format OSI/GENFAX.

I cannot find a way in Sabre or Amadeus to make this work the way we want it to. Amadeus gets a point for effort.

Note that not all airlines opt in for FQTS functionality even if the GDS provides it.

CX, for example, has decided not to adopt FQTS so you are stuck with FQTV.

A related issue....

I'll shortly be doing a OneWorld xONEx itinerary, preferring to post miles to QRPC. Does that mean that I won't get PreCheck on the AA domestic segments, or will I have to change those to my AAdvantage number to get PreCheck?

I thought Pre-Check was based on a Known Traveler Number (KTN) that you can add separately to the booking. I think using the AAdvantage number just pre-loads it to the booking (provided it is in your profile).
