Functionality questions

Which Galileo access (HAP or WAB) do I need in order to use Tripgate?

Generally, a WAB is all you need to be able to use most of the system. However, a HAP is necessary in cases when you wish to use certain features like importing users from GDS, synchronising user profiles with GDS and importing Corporate GDS profiles which still run on GWS (Galileo Web Services).

Can I disable auto-ticketing?

Unless you enable auto-ticketing functionality and define its rules, it is disabled by default and you need to issue every ticket manually.

Does the itinerary for TripGate show Carbon Emissions Data?

Not at the moment. But it can be obtained through our free plug in – CEE Itinerary https://www.cee-systems.com/itinerary

Is TripGate capable of handling one-way fares, especially the logic required by the Australia-Pacific customers?

One-way faring is being prepared as a general solution accommodating the vast majority of customers. We do not cosider implementing AU-NZ One-way faring (a Galileo feature) at the moment.

We can upload a text storage, and there are two options: free – local Travelport team will help with the translation (preferred – person from industry), or paid – done by a professional translator.

Is Tripgate customisable in terms of look and feel?

Yes, as a white label solution, we are able to incorporate company / agency branding such as a logo or colours.
