WHAT IS A SELF BOOKING TOOL (SBT)?
WHAT IS A SBT?
Self Booking Tools are computer solutions implemented by software editors for companies that
enable online booking of services proposed by :
airlines
rail operators
car rental companies
other providers (hotels, etc.)
The Self Booking Tools enable companies to
manage their travel policy and bookings in real
time. Accessible online, these tools are usually
parametered by solution editors. They ensure
the synchronisation of the profiles, consider the
various customers, existing loyalty cards etc.
The Self Booking Tools are increasingly in
demand by companies and are very user-friendly
for simple journeys (domestic/European flights from point to point, for example).
The intervention of the agency is still required for multiple segment-journeys.
