  2. What is a Global Distribution System? • GDS stands for the Global Distribution System. It is a huge computer network that passes inventory and rates for hotels to travel agents and travel sites. It is also used by other travel companies such as rental cars and airlines. • Travel GDS is made up of global inventory that is aggregated by Amadeus, Galileo, Sabre, and Worldspan. With our single GDS Software, a travel agent can book flights, hotels, attractions, sightseeing, transfers, and Car services. • BookingXML pre-integrated with the world's leading GDS including Amadeus GDS, Sabre GDS, Travelport GDS, etc. BookingXML is customized in integrating all the major GDS providers and integrated with Amadeus GDS, Sabre GDS, Travelport / Galileo GDS which enable access for reserving airline seats, rental cars, hotel rooms, and other travel products.

  3. Benefits of travel GDS • The Use of a Global distribution system shows a rise across corporate and leisure travelers. • GDS is highly effective in alluring international travelers. This is the reason why using of GDS among travel agents is growing exponentially every year. • OTAs have greatly improved the travel shopping experience and convenience for consumers and have increased pricing transparency. • GDSs enable the retail travel agency and OTA business models. • The GDSs enable the travel agents to make their travel services available to consumers globally where they might not otherwise be able to achieve efficient worldwide market penetration through direct marketing efforts.

  4. Importance of Travel GDS for Travel agents • Initial consumers of the Global Distribution System are travel agents and travel companies (web and office-based) to place a booking on various reservation systems run by the vendors. A GDS system provides access to the vendor's database in real-time. • If figures are taken into consideration, GDS networks like Amadeus and Travelport make billions of dollars in global travel sales. Through these secure networks travel agencies/agents can access a real-time inventory of hotels, airlines, car rentals, and railways as well. • Global Distribution System links all those services across the three primary travel reservation sectors (airlines, hotels and ground transportation, etc.). Travel GDS does have a time and place!

  5. How does the BookingXML GDS system work?     • BookingXML is a global brand trusted by many for its services for worldwide GDS content, other products, and services in order to provide travel-related services to the end consumers. Our travel GDS automated reservation systemcan integrate your services, rates, and bookings consolidating products and services across all travel ecosystems.  • GDS software developed by us typically offers the whole suite of services for the OTAs, ranging from passenger services systems (PSSs) to revenue management systems (RMS). The passenger name record (PNR) in the airline reservation systemis maintained in the GDS system.  • If a passenger books an itinerary containing air segments of multiple airlines through a travel agency. The passenger name record in the GDS system would hold information on their entire itinerary. Each airline that can fly on would only have a portion of the itinerary that is relevant to the. This would contain flight segments on their own services and inbound and onward connecting flights of other airlines in the itinerary.

  6. The future of Travel GDS • GDSs become more of a “direct corporate booking tool” instead of a system used exclusively by travel management companies. Technology may refine and tailor engines to target specific travel interests like corporate or leisure travel.  • Integration methodologies may change, blurring or merging nearly separate functions like booking and in-flight processes. Technology may also produce new solutions to make data more useful and practical for customers (travel agents) and expand to cover new industries. • Our advanced technology to ensure GDS distribution by your OTA is next-generation, seamless. So, the travel agents and their customers can access accurate and up-to-date information instantly at any time.
