This tutorial will guide you in setting up a pre-packaged product (e.g. roundtrip) consisting of multiple services.
What is a pre-packaged product
A pre-package product is a main product which consists of a day by day program (itinerary) of offered services such as flights, hotels, transfers excursions,...
Each component can be customized to suit your specific preferences and requirements.
Package/roundtrip product
We will examine the package product shown below to illustrate the key differences between a product with subservices and a contract product and important considerations.
Code
Recommendation, but you are free to use your own naming convention:
- Start with the first letter of the product type, in this case package (P) or round trip (G)
- Then the IATA of your destination, ie TFS for Tenerife, MLE for Male, Maldives...
or the country code ie GR for Greece. - Then Name or abbreviation of your round trip/package.
External bookings
As mentioned in How to Create a Product, always use "inactive" as a value for External bookings. This will be the default value.
Service type
Recommended Service Type is either round trip or package
Fixed durations
You can chose a fixed duration. In this case the user only has to select the start date and the end date will automatically be calculated.
