Amadeus API
Amadeus API is a development tool that enables the programming of customised client applications to interface to the Amadeus Global Distribution System.
API is not a 'ready to use' product and requires software development by the end user. The Amadeus API package is therefore a toolkit for developers, allowing them to build their own application.
For developers, API is simple to implement and requires the support of industry standard communication protocols and off-the-shelf software.
API is available on:
- Microsoft® Windows 32 bits platforms (Windows NT / 2000 / XP)
- Unix® platforms
- Any platform with a 'C Compiler'
Features:
- Standard Internet environment
- Structured messages
- Backward compatibility
- Flexible programming interface
Benefits:
- Easy to use and install
- Cost effective
- The use of structured API verbs results in simplified maintenance and better stability
- Reduces maintenance costs
- Provides agents with a centralised access to information
- Agents can effectively mix and match services from multiple sources
- Opens new revenue opportunities and reduced maintenance costs
