	Computer reservations system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This system proved fairly successful, and was soon being used by a number of airlines, Sheraton Hotels, and Goodyear for inventory control.
		However these systems were seriously hampered by the need for local human operators to do the actual lookups; ticketing agents would have to call into the booking office, whose operators would make requests to a small team operating the Reservisor and then speak the results back into the telephone.
		Today, each system allows an operator to locate and reserve inventory (for instance, an airline seat on a particular route at a particular time), find and process fares/prices applicable to the inventory, generate tickets and travel documents, and generate reports on the transactions for accounting or marketing purposes.

	Passenger Rail Questions and Answers
		Each system shows the schedules and fares offered by airlines in each market that are available for sale through travel agents using that system and whether seats are available on specific flights at specific fares (some fares are often not available through the systems, notably corporate discount fares and webfares).
		We find that the systems continue to have market power over airlines, as argued by the Justice Department; that there is some potential for conduct by the systems that could prejudice airline competition (most notably the sale of display bias); and that systems could engage in practices that could unreasonably preserve their market power.
		When each system was owned and controlled by one or more airlines or airline affiliates, experience demonstrated that systems were likely to engage in conduct designed to prejudice the competitive position of rival airlines, for example, by biasing displays against the owner airlines’ competitors and charging competing airlines discriminatorily high booking fees.

		Amadeus offers a comprehensive set of validation tools designed exclusively for customers in FDA-regulated companies that require formal software validation, but lack the resources to complete the planning and required documentation.
		Rather than the 'do-it-yourself' approach, Amadeus International can provide you with an authorized, experienced technical representative that offers on-site project leadership to install the software, execute all validation activities, and provide documented evidence that the project was successfully implemented according to your internal quality guidelines.
