The key difference between the two systems was that while ARSs automated flight and seat controls within individual airlines, CRSs made this possible across several airlines. By the mid-to late 1990s, several major CRSs had expanded into global systems – the Global Distribution Systems (GDS).…

    A computer reservations system or central reservation system[1] (CRS) is a computerized system used to store and retrieve information and conduct transactions related to air travel. Originally designed and operated by airlines, CRSes were later extended for the use of travel agencies. Major CRS operations that book and sell tickets for multiple airlines are known as global distribution systems (GDS). Airlines have divested most of their direct holdings to dedicated GDS companies,[2] who make their systems accessible to consumers through Internet gateways. Modern GDSes typically allow users to book hotel rooms and rental cars as well as airline tickets. They also provide access to railway reservations and bus reservations in some markets, although these are not always integrated with the main system.…
