Amadeus creates leisure distribution solution
Amadeus has responded to the launch of Galileo Leisure a year ago by creating its own multi-channel solution for the distribution of leisure travel content.
It has been developed with two mainly business travel agencies in Finland and the company is talking to other potential customers worldwide.
The solution provides large travel agencies with a single search and display interface for all leisure content including multiple tour operator packages, hotels, scheduled carriers, as well as local or private inventory.
The content is the same for travel agents, call centres and online channels – to ensure a consistent offer across all channels, according to Amadeus.
The technology draws content from a range of sources and integrates it into dynamic packages and virtual packages, which are governed by business rules, giving the travel agency more control.
Merchant capabilities allow agents to add an additional mark-up on each travel component to improve revenue management.
