Travel Distribution
Travel distribution refers to the process of making travel products, such as flights, hotels, and rental cars, available to consumers. This involves various channels, including online travel agencies (OTAs), global distribution systems (GDS), and direct bookings through suppliers' websites. Each channel plays a role in connecting travelers with the services they need.
The travel distribution landscape is constantly evolving, influenced by technology and consumer behavior. Travel agents, airlines, and hotel chains often collaborate with these distribution channels to reach a wider audience and optimize their sales strategies. Understanding this system helps consumers find the best travel options available.
