Hotel Search Engine Development
Developing a hotel search engine will be a cost effective method and works like a directory portal where a user can compare hotel deals and discounts from multiple OTA websites. Travelers of travel sub agents can compare the deals in one go and directly book from the same website. The earnings from the hotel search engine can be done either from the online bookings or from redirection to the individual website.
Certain travel agencies have their own travel suppliers and this help them to grow their business with the help of B2B and B2C travel portals. Accessing a huge worldwide inventory is what the travel agents get in return. Integrating the worldwide inventory of travel suppliers to a single point of integration is what we define as the Global distribution system (GDS). With the help of the API and XML of the various travel suppliers, integration of the hotel booking system with the global distribution system becomes quite easier.
