Travel Distribution System

A Global Distribution System (GDS) is a worldwide reservation system that acts as an important middleman between travel bookers and suppliers and other kinds of travel-related businesses. A GDS is a computerized reservation system that enables travel agencies, online travel agencies, and tour operators to access a big inventory of hotel rooms, air flights, car rentals, and cruise ship travel products in real time.

The GDS provides real-time product details, rates, and availability to online booking engines and travel agents directly, allowing automated transactions and issue-free booking management. The system is particularly useful in the business travel sector since it integrates hotels, airlines, and cruises into one user-friendly interface, making trip planning and management easier for both travelers and companies.

For travel agencies, having access to a GDS ensures a real-time view of flights, hotels, and cruise options, allowing them to build tailored travel packages for clients. By integrating with a GDS, travel agencies and OTAs can:

• Offer comprehensive travel bookings with multiple suppliers.
• Access hotel rooms, flights, and car rentals across different distribution channels.
• Provide dynamic pricing and instant confirmation.
• Automate the booking process for efficiency.
