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!!

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 

I'm creating a rental app that gives the users the ability to book hotels on hourly bases. Is there a service that I can use to book hotels in hourly bases?

I want to know if it's compulsory to book a return flight ticket even if you are traveling for employment purpose which will take you to be in the country for more than one year.

What are the Air Flights API limitations by online customers? 

Is there a solid SaaS Car Rental system that has a quality API which allows for building your own booking and checkin flows?  We've looked at a number of options.  Most seem like custom pro-serve implementations to startup up and they seem to have little to no API.

We are an OTA startup looking for an API that allows us to directly negotiate rates/inclusions with a hotel to provide unique offerings. BedBanks don't seem to be the way, and we are getting turned away from Channel Managers/Direct Connects.  If we elected to go the Amadeus Self Service API, can we integrate in a way that our negotiated rate/package with the Hotel shows up on our OTA?  If not, what are your suggestions? 

We Need amadeus FREE Car Rental API only for demo purpose. my domain is https://www.gtccabs.com

I am looking for Pms featuring revenue management, this is for our task. Can you help me?

Hello,

I am new using GDSs and I am trying to get response to the FlightOrder Management API from Amadues

https://test.api.amadeus.com/v1/booking/flight-orders/RE88ST

I get a NOT FOUND response.

My question is: It is because such information requires extra permissions from the airline?

I am investigating wich GDS would suit better. Your article (https://www.altexsoft.com/blog/travelport-vs-amadeus-vs-sabre-gds/) is great!!!

Hi, I've learned so much reading your articles, thank you!

I want to make a metasearch site for hotels, like Tripadvisor or Trivago. What is the best way to get that data?

All of the API's I'm finding are intended for Hotels to send data, not for people to request data. Are there API's for each OTA and also for each direct booking site?

Is there anyone who aggregates all of that data and provides it via API? That would certainly make things much easier...

Another question:

Is it possible to get 'logged in' rates for places like hotels.com? They have 'Secret Prices' that you have to be logged in to see. I'd like to have this data if possible but I can't find a way to get it via API.

Thanks!
