New Hotel Chain Codes and synchronization logic
The hotel chain code list has been updated. There are now 485 hotel chains (before 360) available for selection in the company and traveler profiles.
Since there is no industry standard for hotel codes and the corresponding hotel names, Umbrella Faces offers a best effort Hotel chain list.
With the new Hotel List a new feature is implemented that only the hotel chains are synchronized in the respective target system if this hotel chain is also supported in the target system.
Example:
Carlson Hotel (CW)
Names in OBE/GDS
Amadeus | Sabre | Travelport+ | Worldspan | Cytric | Concur | Deem | GetThere | Tramada | Conferma |
Radisson Hotel Group | CARLSON HTL BRAND | Radisson Hotel Group | Carlson Hotel Brands | Radisson Hotel Group | Radisson Americas | not available | Carlson Hotel Brands | Carlson Brands | The Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group
|
- Hotel Code CW is shown as “Carlson Hotel” as the majority of the target system label CW as Carlson Hotel.
- Hotel Code CW will be pushed to Amadeus, Sabre, Travelport+, Worldspan, Cytric, Concur, GetThere, Tramada and Conferma
- Hotel Code CW will not pushed to Deem
An Umbrella Faces Hotel Code Standard has also been implemented, which is use in the CSV Export/Import and within our API (Synch API & Profile on Demand API).
