Location Codes

In situations where a Product may sell multiple Hotels and Transfers that are in a different location, such as different parts of an island or city, the Location Code will allow the user to link Hotels and Transfers together to ensure the passenger is booking these Services in the same location during the shop process.

Setting Up Location Codes

The Location Code is a free text field so the Code can be entered however the user wants. The only stipulation is when connecting a Hotel and Transfer the Location Codes must be exactly the same, this is how the system knows to link the Services together during the Shop Process.

  • If a Transfer Service has a Location Code that does not match any of the Hotels in the Shop the Transfers will not return

  • If a Transfer Service does not have a Location Code it will return, but it will be able to be booked with any Hotel that is selected

Example

In the example below the user is shopping for Hotels and Transfers in Cancun, Mexico. Because Cancun has a is a City Code, CUN, built in the FIT Cities menu the system will shop Hotels in Product Code: MX-CUN-HTL and Transfers in Product Code: MX-CUN-TRANSFERS

Product Code: MX-CUN-HTL has 2 sets of Hotel Services, the Beach Hotel Supplier and the Sandy Beach Hotel Supplier:

The Beach Hotel Services have a Location Code of ZONE1:

The Sandy Beach Hotel Services have a Location Code of Zone2:

In the Transfer Product, MX-CUN-TRANSFERS there are 2 sets of Transfer services, designated by their Service Description as Zone 1 Transfers and Zone 2 Transfers. This will make it easier to decipher when using a large Product List of Services

When the Passenger attempts to shop for these Hotel and Transfers services the Transfers will filter out and change depending on which Hotel service is selected. In the below image the Beach Hotel (Zone1) service is selected and the Transfer menu will now only show the Transfer Services that also have the same Zone1 Location Code:

If the Passenger selects the Sandy Beach Hotel service the system will change those Transfers to only display the Transfer Services that are built with the Zone2 Location Code
