Right. However, having gone through this I find it easier to at least set up all of the reservations myself, knowing that I got it right (as opposed to someone else fat-fingering you to TUL instead of YUL, which almost happened to me today at the DL office), and being able to go through all of the components of the rate quote, then have it all ready for ticketing in the PNR when you walk into the ticketing office in, say, ICN.

Although it is that much easier if you're also in a situation where you can ticket it yourself.
