PAX panel is available in the right-hand filter. It shows list of passengers (names or TBA). You can edit PAX profiles by clicking the icon where you can define PAX details, Travel document or preferences. Mark a checkbox FERRY if no PAX should be added to the trip.

Passengers can be added to Leon in 2 ways: selecting names from Leon database or manually by inserting details. You can add pax number while adding a new trip, then in a tab PAX you just input their details.

If you have reduced PAX number by navigating with arrows (which result PAX names disappear from the filter) and you again increased PAX number - Leon will bring the same PAX names to the filter. PAX will not be brought back to the list if you reduced the number and saved changes.

The PAX panel is divided into 2 sections: Database and Text.

If you hover the mouse over the PAX number window, Leon shows a pop-up window with the information of how many males, females, children and infants are on the flight.

     • adding further PAX to the list will not overwrite already added PAX, i.e. adding 2 new PAX to 2 already assigned PAX will increase the PAX number to 4
