01
Hotel profile ingestion and destination/hotel mapping
Hotel profile data can arrive with different country, city and hotel identifiers. Mapping helps present eligible inventory as a coherent product catalogue without guessing at search time.
HOTEL DISTRIBUTION

CAPABILITIES
Capabilities that solve day-to-day travel operations
02
Multiple provider offers under a consistent hotel identity
When more than one supplier has an offer for a hotel, the customer should see a useful choice rather than duplicate hotel cards. The selected supplier offer must remain identifiable.
03
Search, details, pre-book verification and booking
A hotel reservation is a journey: search, detail, verification, booking, final confirmation and post-booking service. Each transition has a business consequence.
04
Provider-specific keys retained through reservation lifecycle
Provider-specific hotel codes and offer references matter at confirmation and cancellation time. They must follow the transaction, even when the display uses a common hotel identity.
05
Pending confirmation handling and reconciliation
An external provider may still be processing a booking after the initial request. Operations need to preserve that non-final state until the provider result is resolved.
06
Voucher, cancellation and booking detail workflows
Booking details, vouchers, cancellation conditions and credit effects should reflect the final booking outcome rather than assuming every response is immediately confirmed.

BUSINESS VALUE
The operating outcome we focus on
The goal is fewer gaps between what agencies see, what suppliers can confirm, and what operations and finance must record. A connected product-to-booking lifecycle matters more than an isolated screen.
- Hotel profile ingestion and destination/hotel mapping
- Multiple provider offers under a consistent hotel identity
- Search, details, pre-book verification and booking
- Provider-specific keys retained through reservation lifecycle
QUESTIONS
Useful questions, clear answers
Why does mapping matter after supplier integration?+
Because a supplier hotel code is not necessarily the same as the catalogue identity shown to agents. Mapping allows better display while retaining the original offer identity.
