Travel agents around the world are more and more using global distribution systems (GDS), rather than other booking channels. During the past years, using phone, direct mail, hotel websites, and hotel directories have dwindled considerably. Instead, travel technologies from Amadeus, Galileo, Sabre, and Worldspan have become popular among the travel service providers. Among these, Amadeus GDS has emerged as the most preferred by travel agents around the world to make air, hotel, car rentals, railway, ferry, cruises or other travel service booking. As a result, hotels and airlines need to carry on trade with travel agents at the point of sale through the GDS.

Apart from the traditional content of travel agency platforms, Amadeus provides availability, pricing, reservation functionalities to travel agencies. Nowadays, travelers prefer a one-stop service and request rich information other than the orthodox rate and availability. The travel agent has to provide detailed, real-time information to enable the consumer to choose an option that is suited to all his/her needs. Amadeus just de-complicates travel.

How travel portal solutions have helped agencies to expand globally?
The process of online bookings has many advantages. For both the travelers and the travel agencies, it saves time and effort. Therefore, the traditional practices like visiting the travel agent’s place to make flight reservations or any other related services are no more used. Leading agencies are going for travel portal development with GDS Amadeus and APIs to set up b2c and b2b portals with online booking engines.
