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.

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!

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 system can
  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 system is
  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.

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.
