ATZ transit RT question

Hi

Apologies if this sounds like a silly question but it has been bugging me,
When planning to fly through an ATZ open FIR what do you say to the fiso/radio to obtain the relevant information ? Is there a textbook example call because I have gone through CAP 413 and cant see it, all I can see is the standard obtain the relevant airfield information to conduct the flight safely it doesnt seem to go any further than that.
my question comes about from some discussion amongst friends as to how much waffletime is wasted on RT calls and this topic came up because I said I always do a TRPACER but I have been told that is overkill for an ATZ transit in open FIR ,but that is how I was taught, maybe I am wrong dunno anybody care to ellaborate?

thanks bellend
