Hey!

We are working on a travel startup that allow customers to buy bundle of hotels, flights, eSims etc' from different suppliers in one checkout.

After getting paid online, we need to pay our suppliers.
The money takes a few days to transfer to our bank using services like Stripe.

This delay can lead to price changes by the time we pay the suppliers.

How can we and others handle this payment problem?

Hi, 

My question is which travel APIs or affiliate programs for hotels, ground transportation, and tours and activities provide sustainability information for these products such as eco certificates and sustainable practices?

thanks

if I have a booking engine I want to connect with Expedia via API does this process take a long time? and how much does this cost? does this need a deposit?

I'm not sure how to use loop to preserve the information of several travelers at the time of booking.

When making a reservation using the loop approach, I would want to keep the data for numerous travelers. I'm using the Amadeus Node.js software development kit; can somebody point me in the right direction?

Has anyone used Trip.com before?

what are the basic airline IT requirements when setting up and airline (including back office technology)? to allow the airline to operate a scheduled operation. 

I'm looking for a flight search API to return filtered flight data and book flights using it. 
Amadeus Self Service APIs seemed to be the perfect option until I found out their booking feature is still not available in all the Middle East, where most of my to and from flights will take place. 

Is there any alternative available for businesses without an IATA ID?

Hello. 
I want to build an employee management system, where from my portal, an employee can select a flight and I will pay for him. 

Just what I want is, employee will be able to see certain types of live flight only. For example, for this employee X I want him to be only able to book flights within 300 dollars. For another employee, Y I want him to be able to select Business class flights only. 

Essentially, after he selects, the payment will be made by me on behalf of him. 
Now rather than me choosing certain flights and calling employee X and Y if he is fine with these choices, and flights getting updated and changed in the meantime, I want to automate this process through filtering and still giving him some freedom. 

Can we do this through any API in the market? Does any integrations offering this feature exist?

We're trying to build an employee management software for a client, which among other features, must have this travel booking feature. 

Essentially client wants to pay for flight/hotel/car rental for his VIP delegates.
We want the delegate to receive an invitation link to choose flight / hotel / car from an OTA like Expedia for example, but we don't want him to be able to see the price. For each we want to have a filter, so it shows only the available options from within our budget. Once delegate finalizes his booking, the payment will be automatically made from client's account and delegate should only receive the confirmation email outlining all details such as dates, rooms etc. all except the price. 

Is there any tool available in the market for a feature like this? Or which business should I reach out to for such an integration? Any advice please!!

Which are the CRS/PMS/Channel Manager solutions which have both of these features:
1. Break/Merge stay (One booking into multiple nights or merge multiple bookings into one) API    AND
2. Name change APIs.

I don't know how to save the details of several travelers within the time of booking using loop?

I would like to store multiple travelers' information while booking using the loop method. I am working with the Amadeus Node.js software development kit; hope someone know to give me a guide?

Amadeus API hosts a variety of features from booking flights, hotels andother essential services.

• It has a variety of deals related to airlines, cars and hotels
• It provides direct access to the booking procedure
• It connects you to the airline, car, hotel and travel web services

Has anyone used duffel.com and share his experience
