Core Model & Architecture

How data is structured natively

cancel Pages → Posts → Plugins

Travel products are forced into flat blog post types, requiring custom fields and dozens of plugins to manage dates, pricing, and stays.

check_circle Destinations → Catalog → Packages → Bookings

Hotels, transfers, tours, and ferries are native entities with built-in travel business logic, availability rules, and destination relationships.

Multi-Source Inventory

Sourcing inventory streams

cancel Plugin Reliant & Disconnected

Requires third-party WooCommerce or booking plugins that conflict easily and cannot integrate partner DMC rates or live API hotel feeds.

check_circle OWN + PARTNER + API + MANUAL Engine

Unifies company-owned vehicles, contracted partner rates, live SerpApi/Google Hotels feeds, and manual vendor rates in one catalog.

Day-by-Day Package Builder

Creating tour products

cancel Manual Copy-Paste Assembly

Creating packages involves manually copy-pasting descriptions into static pages without real catalog component linking or margin calculations.

check_circle Native Itinerary Timeline Builder

Drag-and-drop catalog stays, cabs, ferry tickets, and activities onto daily timelines with automated cost, gross margin, and selling price rules.

Quote & Pricing Protection

Handling client rate drift

cancel Prone to Rate Drift

When catalog prices increase, active customer quotes and historical confirmed booking details are overwritten or altered unpredictably.

check_circle Immutable Price Snapshots

Freezes exact itinerary snapshots, rates, and component inclusions at quotation so supplier rate changes never affect issued proposals.

Operational Sync (TravelCRM)

Connecting to back office

cancel Manual Re-entry or Fragile Webhooks

Staff must manually re-enter web enquiries into spreadsheets or rely on unstable Zapier hooks that drop data during peak traffic.

check_circle Direct Automated TravelCRM Handshake

Asynchronous background queue (`SyncPackageBookingToTravelCrmJob`) automatically pushes confirmed web bookings to TravelCRM for execution.

Post-Booking Guest Portal

Traveler post-checkout hub

cancel Static PDF Emails or No Portal

Customer experience ends at checkout with PDF attachments. Travelers have no central place to view live vouchers or driver updates.

check_circle `/my-trip/{reference}` Mobile Live Portal

Tokenized passwordless guest access to live daily itineraries, driver contacts, hotel vouchers, and 1-click support on mobile devices.
