What Is a B2B and B2C Travel Portal
Online Booking Platform For Agents And Customers
A B2B (Business-to-Business) travel portal allows
travel agencies, sub-agents, and corporate clients to search, book, and manage
flights through your branded platform — with each agent having their own login,
wallet, and booking history. A B2C (Business-to-Consumer) portal enables
direct customers to search and book flights online through your website without
needing a human agent.
Combining both models in a single platform gives you maximum
market coverage — you serve both wholesale travel agents AND retail customers
from one centralized system.
