JAC TRAVEL & TRAVCO - multithread and partial results processing

Multithreading option and partial results processing were implemented for Jac Travel and Travco suppliers. This implies that concomitant requests are sent to the supplier while making a search, allowing the application to populate the search page with results as soon as they are received from the supplier, without waiting for the full response. While enabling this option consumes more server resources, it actually decreases the response time, especially on big destinations.

Transfers - service: if price increases, display warning

For the Transfer service, in case the price increases between any of the steps of the booking process, a warning will be displayed, advising the old price and the new price of the offer.

RESELLER agent profile – added search default section preference

We have added a new feature that optimizes the time spent by the agents while searching for the travel services. In the reseller interface, in the "Personal profile" section, a new option was created, which allows the user to set a preferred default search section. Thus, the "Search Hotels" page can be automatically opened when clicking on the "Search" button, if this was the preferred option.

For a moment, let’s consider the calculator. This relatively simple machine allows the user to complete complicated math problems by simply pushing a few buttons or following a fairly easy set of steps. The results, even with the most basic of today’s calculators, are computed quickly and are both incredibly detailed and enormously accurate. This allows users to engage in advanced mathematical equations with little time and resource investment - which can’t be said when attempting to solve a complex math equation manually with pen and paper.
