Amadeus as an Information System.

Amadeus and its Technology Kit.

Amadeus for Application (Benefits and

Disadvantage).

Amadeus is a computer reservations system (or global distribution system, since it sells tickets for multiple airlines). It is a central source of reference information, which is maintained by Amadeus and service providers.

1987 Originally created as neutral global distribution

system The first Amadeus system was built from core

reservation system code coming from System One, an American GDS that competed with Sabre but went bankrupt, and a copy of the Air France pricing engine.

the Amadeus systems were functionally dedicated to airline reservation and centered on the PNR (Passenger Name Record), the passenger's travel file. Throughout the years, the PNR was opened up to additional travel industries (hotels, rail, cars, cruises, ferries, insurance, etc.).

Example of Amadeus application

Amadeus is steadily expanding its mobile technology solutions and arming the traveller with more control, flexibility and convenience by launching; - a version of CheckMyTrip for mobile phones - pilot social media and smartphone ‘apps’

Amadeus knows that the mobile phone is crucial for travelers to stay informed with the latest information at every stage of their trip and therefore continues to expand and develop its mobile technology products.

The Latest Developments are:

A new CheckMyTrip website that allows easier viewing of itineraries if http://www.checkmytrip.com/ is accessed from a mobile phone browser

Pilots of CheckMyTrip for BlackBerry and CheckMyTrip for iPhone, allowing travellers to download and store Itineraries on their mobile phones

In addition, Amadeus also announces the launch of:

A pilot CheckMyTrip application for FaceBook, allowing users to easily share their travel itineraries

with friends and family who are also registered Facebook users

More and more travellers need to access their itinerary from their phones while on the go, so it was

a natural next step for Amadeus to design a new version of the classic http://www.checkmytrip.com/

for mobile phones including Apple’s iPhone and RIM’s BlackBerry to cater for this demand.

Frequently asked questions:

1. What is CheckMyTrip?

2. How can I access CheckMyTrip on my mobile phone?

3. How can I see CheckMyTrip for BlackBerry and iPhone (in pilot but

4. How can I use the trial version of CheckMyTrip for FaceBook?

Time saving Easy to find and understand

information. Efficient and more economical. Quick response terms. Possibility of cross selling the

products and larger offers to clients is possible.
