A global distribution system (GDS) is a computerised network system owned or operated by a company that implement transactions between travel industry service providers, mainly airlines, hotels, car rental companies, and travel agencies. The GDS mainly uses real-time listings (e.g., number of hotel rooms available, number of flight seats available, or number of cars available) from the service providers. Travel agencies traditionally relied on GDS for services, products and rates in order to give travel-related services to the end consumers. Thus, a GDS can link services, rates and bookings develop products and services across all three travel sectors: i.e., airline reservations, hotel reservations, car rentals. https://www.travelopro.com/GDS-reservation-system.php
