Quite simply, that is my datapoint ... nothing more, nothing less. If everyone you deal with comprehends the difference between a PNR, a ticket, several tickets, a PNR containing several tickets; and separate PNRs then fine. That's your datapoint. And I get your experience may be different to mine.
No, you still don't seem to get my point!

My point is that people don't know the difference between tickets and PNRs but they do not need to. PNR is simply a synonym for 'booking' and it's booking that matters. And people absolutely know the difference between one booking and two bookings!
