Room block management software Meetingmax has partnered with Sabre to deliver real-time room block updates via an innovation with GDS rate codes. Room block management is often an manual process wherein the host organization must run a report daily, weekly or at a chosen frequency and then provide that rooming list to the contracted meeting property before it can actually be reserved and confirmed within the hotel’s central reservation system or property management system.
By working with Sabre to provide the host organization’s rate code to the GDS, those companies whose travelers book via a Sabre-powered hotel room storefront will be able to automate that report driven process and move it to a touchless, real-time automation, according to Meetingmax.
The real-time automation is the first of what Meetingmax expects to be a roadmap of integrations with Sabre as it works to become an authorized third-party developer with that GDS.
