GDS Connectivity by Vertical Booking

GDS (Global Distribution System) is an IT system used by Travel Agents to book flight tickets, hotels, cars and cruises.

At present there are about 500,000 travel agents using GDS. In addition to these travel agents, hundreds of on-line booking websites also use the data to sell rooms.

There are 4 GDSs worldwide: Sabre, Amadeus, Galileo and Worldspan

The Vertical Booking CRS features integrated GDS connectivity with code OK (Alesia Distribution).

The advantages of Alesia Distribution integrated GDS connectivity are:

complete integration in the booking engine makes it very easy to use

rates and availabilities (promotional, negotiated and corporate) only need to be updated on Vertical Booking.
