GDS Ticketing System

 

 

What is the GDS integrated Ticketing system of travel agencies?

 

A ticketing system or travel agent software is an online system for accessing travel-related content. The data comes from the database of the ticketing system or may come from Global Distribution Systems or third-party suppliers. 

Ticketing may process transactions related to booking flights, hotel bookings, transfers, car rentals, cruise bookings, and any other travel-related services.

GDS Ticketing Software is a complete online travel ticket booking software that allows travel agents to book and sell tickets online from the back office and develops the best booking experience for travel agents and customers.

The Global Distribution System or GDS has become the backbone of the Ticket Reservation System and has a prominent place in the travel industry.

Essentially, GDS is a computerized reservation network that makes it easier for travel agents, end-users, or corporations to access and make tickets for booking flights, rental cars, hotel rooms, tour packages, and other travel products.

GDS, therefore, fulfills the inventory needs of online ticket reservation sites and travel agencies. It also allows users to make their booking tickets through the choice of airlines and multiple providers.

The GDS Travel XML integration can be implemented in two ways – B2B and B2C.

B2C GDS - B2C (Business to Customer) travel agents will sell travel products directly to their customers.

GDS integration meets an automatic update of inventory information (pricing/availability). All agents and users of B2C immediately receive the same data.

B2B GDS - B2B (Business to Business) allows travel agents to sell travel inventory only through their site, tracking all bookings and sales by individual agents and commissions. In this case, agents can check the status of the booking, view reports and invoices, cancel the booking, and generate commissions.
