Content aggregation - adopt more and more content easily and efficiently

Charters

TravelStoreMaker.com's Charter Database allows airline owners and travel agencies who have rented an airplane for charter flights to upload and manage their flights, schedules, availability and rates. The Charter Database content is composed of flights and segments routing information, schedules, availability with the ability to block seats, and pricing information including airport taxes. The Charter Database booking engine interface supports XML queries and responses. When a booking is made, the respective booking engine collects customer data, including billing info and passes it back to the system to confirm the booking. It stores the reservations and decreases availability for the respective dates and flights.
Each User may see all or some of the Flight Contracts loaded by different Providers. Booking engines receive the fulfillment Price and may add markups to them before showing to end users. It is also possible to define different fare Contracts with different prices using the same Segment availability. Providers can at any moment put a Contract offline thus hiding it from all Users.
When the Charter Database is used by TravelStoreMaker.com's own booking engine, the flights may be booked alone or dynamically packaged with hotels, stored in TravelStoreMaker.com's Hotels database. The Provider can define how many seats can be sold as Flights only, and how many as Flight + Hotel packages.

Insurance

TravelStoreMaker.com has an ability to support insurance services on its Internet Booking Engine. All travel agencies, airlines and fulfillment centers that are using TravelStoreMaker.com's Internet Booking Engine, have the opportunity to offer to their customers insurance services as part of their travel service. The insurance option is available as a separate product integrated in the booking process. The most attractive issue with the supported insurance option is the possibility for the travel agency, airline or fulfillment centers to load into TravelStoreMaker.com's database their own insurance deals irrespectively of the insurance company they work with. We are aimed at delivering not only pure online travel solutions, but and to amplify our Travel Agencies, airlines and portals to offer online other travel related services based upon existing business agreements.

Hotel Database

The product can be used both for a hotel website for online sales and as an internal system for small hotels that do not have automation.
The newly created own hotel database is yet another independent source of hotel information. The database can be used as a stand-alone source of information or together with the aggregated content provided by CNG, Octopus Travel, Hotels.com and JAC. Any business that has special allotments or rate deals with hotels can load their contracts into the Hotel database and sell hotel rooms using TravelStoreMaker.com's Internet Booking Engine or, through the use of an XML interface, provide the rates to other booking engines. Furthermore, travel agencies using this new hotel product can rely on the affiliate site operators of TravelStoreMaker.com as additional distributors of their hotel offers, as this content will be available to these affiliates through TravelStoreMaker.com's standard Internet Booking engine product.
The newly created TravelStoreMaker.com hotel database can also be a powerful tool for hotels that have web sites to promote their products, but do not have the technology to maintain real-time availability on their sites. Using TravelStoreMaker.com's new hotels database product and support services they can have an on-line sales and inventory management solution that optimizes their hotel business and also allows them to offer their visitors the possibility of booking a flight reservation and renting a car through their web site.
