Latest updates in Goelett

We’ve introduced a new API endpoint to improve the efficiency of loading analytical data. This endpoint will specifically enable the loading and retrieval of mappings between travelers and dictionary values. Respective documentation is available on Developer Portal under the Goelett API section.

This release introduces a new endpoint for retrieving all company users data with enhanced flexibility and control. In addition to basic user data (Login, CompanyCode, LastName, FirstName, Email, IsActive) in SBT API, the endpoint allows administrators to configure the inclusion of specific data fields such as analytical fields, roles, and nominated approvers.

This release introduces a new Bene Moove integration for rail bookings, replacing the legacy Bene API. While the core Bene integration functionality remains unchanged, this update lays the groundwork for future enhancements.

We have introduced the ability to search, display, and book LCC fares sourced directly from Sabre. This enhancement provides travel bookers with access to a wider range of flight options, including competitive fares from LCC airlines (including light ticketing carriers only). The system now enables searching for LCC fares via Sabre for both single and multi-passenger trips. On top of this functionality, we have enabled seat selection and extra luggage purchase for travelers.

. The full list of features contains of the following updates:

• Bookers can complete the booking process directly within the system, with instant ticketing to accommodate LCC fare requirements.
• Clear display of LCC fares with details on price, inclusions, and restrictions.
• Thanks to the interactive seat map, passengers can view available seats with their types and prices and then easily select and reserve their preferred seats.
• The extra baggage selection process aligns with the existing user flow and design for other air providers. The total trip price is dynamically updated to reflect the cost of any added baggage.
• A new section in the Admin Panel allows for setup and configuration.

This enhancement empowers travel bookers with a more comprehensive and competitive travel booking experience.

Important note: LCC fares require immediate ticketing, and hence Goelett flows (e.g., approval, hold or delayed ticketing) are bypassed.

This release introduces the ability for passengers to select and purchase specific seats as an extra service during the flight booking process for Sabre NDC offers.

Passengers can now view an interactive seat map during the booking process, displaying available seats with their corresponding types and prices. They can then easily select and reserve their preferred seats. The system will confirm seat availability and update the total trip price accordingly. In the event of seat unavailability, the system will display a clear error message and allow the passenger to continue their booking process by selecting an alternative seat.

This enhancement provides passengers with greater control and flexibility in their travel planning, allowing them to secure their preferred seating arrangements and enhance their overall travel experience when booking Sabre NDC flights.

This release introduces the ability for customers to purchase extra baggage during the booking flow for flights with Sabre Air EDIFACT.
