Reservation & Booking Management
Lifecycle of the reservation, PNR, and hotel folio — capture, modification, cancellation, group blocks, confirmations, payments, and disruption-driven rebooking — independent of which channel originated the booking.

The catalog holds 71 API surface(s) from 28 provider(s) that can perform some part of it, 2 of them rated strong or better.
