Travel Agent Software with Travel APIs (Hotel APIs & GDS)



Hotel consolidators’ apparently are brokers who buy in bulk and then resell at a predetermined discount thus creating a big pool for discounted hotel deals online and passing the savings on to their customers.


Some Hotel suppliers concentrate on every major tourist destination, big city or popular resort while some hotel suppliers concentrate on a particular geographic area trying to be most competitive on a key for the company market. Their activities involve buying blocks of rooms at volume discounts in certain major cities and distributing “excess rooms” offered by hotels not anticipating full occupancy for given dates. Same inventory of hotels are connected to online hotel booking system (hotel booking and reservation software).


Hotel xml suppliers are connected to travel agents and tour operators of the major cities and destinations to distribute the properties or hotel inventories. In comparison to individuals who contact hotels directly and ask for discounts, the consolidators are able to achieve deep discounts due to their buying power. Hotels are willing to offer dramatically reduced room rates to consolidators because they know it will yield a greater number of reservations. Many hotels are interested in selling room blocks (allotments) to consolidators, because they know that discounted rooms mean more business in the long run and subsequently a greater profit for them. To reach maximum local customers (end customer), hotel xml suppliers have started associating with travel agents and tour operators from each destination to sell their hotel inventories hence facilitate the distribution process.

With the rise in usage of internet, mobile and advance ecommerce / mcommerce system for major online travel bookings , hotel xml suppliers have started focusing on providing best price to it’s distributors for maximizing their sales. Hotel suppliers started selling their inventories through the mode of XMLs, which can be seamlessly connected with hotel booking system & travel booking systems. These XML’s can be easily integrated in the form of API’s and helps the travel agents to get their own white labeled solution.
