Selling Hotel Segments from Availability
After you select room and rate rules for a rate plan, you can sell the hotel segment for your selection.
Sell Request
There are two options for selling hotel rooms for the selected rate plan using Smartpoint screens:
- Advanced Sell, which allows you to add or change the booking information, such as adding a rollaway cot, changing the form of payment for a guarantee, or adding a special service request.
- Smartpoint 9.0 and later. Passive Sell, which creates a passive segment for hotel bookings made outside of the Travelport+ (1G) or Travelport Apollo (1V) systems.
Tip! You can also use terminal formats to sell with TravelScreen preferences.
Note: In Smartpoint 8.2 and earlier, a Quick Sell feature was available using the Sell Room link. The Quick Sell was available for rates that did not require a credit card guarantee or deposit. Because these rate types have become less common, this functionality was removed.
