Negotiated/ Secured Rates

In the hospitality industry, these rates are contracted rates that are not publicly available and which can also be booked via the GDSs, IBEs and call centers. A prerequisite for a secured rate is an access restriction which is controlled through rate access codes and pseudo city codes (PCC) in the GDSs.

NGS (Next Generation Seamless)

Next Generation Seamless integrates CRS and/or PMS information directly with the GDS, which exactly match the hotel’s own data. Thus, avoiding delays and errors and providing real time information to travel agents.
