Web Services
There are 2 different types of web based services that are imperative in the travel industry, the first being B2B applications. B2B applications allow the agent to search through an extensive travel data base and book vacations directly with the supplier. With B2B services, agents can also communicate with other agents and participate in exclusive agent training sessions and familiarization trips. B2C software is the second web based service is more diverse allowing clients to search and book their vacations.

Dreams seldom materialize on their own
The major difference between B2B (Business to Business) and B2C (Business to Customer) in internet terms is the role of the B2B website. B2B concerns itself primarily with supply chain management. These are portals that allow businesses to deal directly with their suppliers and distributors online. Allowing electronic transfer of orders, invoicing and even payments. Wholesalers, distributors and manufacturers fall in this category. A B2B site deals primarily with other businesses, not the general public, a B2C site sells directly to the end user. B2B sites normally handle a lot more than just sales of products, they are a portal to conduct business transactions.
