NEW FEATURES AND CAPABILITIES The following new capabilities have been added to Instant Travel Expert
Title Returns all rates when checking the detailed rates
Description When Sabre returns more than 60 rates when checking a hotels availability, it is previously possible that Instant Travel Expert will not see rates above 50. This feature now returns all the rates and displays them within the rates page of Instant Travel Expert
Application Note Due to an internal issue with Sabre Web Services, it is possible that the return of the rates can take 30 seconds or more. To that end, this capability is turned off by default. Should you wish to turn it on please contact your support representative.
