The new site will work by offering a constant updating of a 'bulletin board' for all our subscribers.
With each site collating data on its own area, the CTV Internet hub will automatically update and distribute every change to all CTV clients.

In addition, our private web space will have the ability to take and confirm your bookings - automatically. This is one of the most exciting developments in tourism, and will mean that we can link to an international reservation system, making bookings from Kirkcaldy to Kathmandu!

The new site will work by having accommodation or ticket providers enter their current availability by fax, or a standard touch-tone telephone, if they don't have access to a PC.

When TICs make their search, selection and subsequent booking, the room or ticket will immediately be taken from the available pool, and so cannot be double-booked - this is the advantage of working in real time, rather than relying on periodic synchronisation.

On other hubs, where data is only updated at intervals, users run the risk of double-bookings.

For more information, please either fax or e-mail us: CTV was the first to develop computerised TIC systems, and now we're the first to be going into the new Millennium with a complete Internet solution!
