RCS Distributor Content Functionality

Current as of September 2020

Because functionality for suppliers may be subject to change, always confirm functionality directly with the Rail Content Service (RCS) supplier before implementation.

Some suppliers have specific requirements. Contact your Travelport Account Manager for more information.

Important! See 30-Day Trial Access to the Sandbox for details about testing RCS suppliers in the Sandbox.

See GDS Rail Suppliers for a list of rail suppliers in addition to RCS.
