What is a CRS/GDS and what are they used for?
A Computer Reservation System (CRS) are computer systems, which link airlines and travel agents together. These systems are used in the booking process, and provide up to date availability for airline seat purchases. Global Distribution Systems (GDS) are CRS systems, which can cater for multiple airlines, hotels, and car reservations. Airline Courses Online offers the most popular CRS courses including Amadeus, Galileo, Sabre and Worldspan. These CRS systems are not available to the public. A Travel agent must subscribe to a CRS provider and complete specialist training. This is where we can help, by providing the specialist training.
