Description

Pauschalreisen, Fahrkarten, Flugscheine, Hotelzimmer, Mietwagen und andere Gegenstände und Dienstleistungen im geschäftlichen Umfeld des Reisens werden herkömmlicherweise telefonisch, über Datennetze oder in persönlichem Kontakt mit dem jeweiligen Anbieter bestellt oder gebucht. Das geschieht teils durch den Kunden selbst, z. B. über BTX, teils unter Einschaltung eines Reisebüros.Package tours, tickets, tickets, hotel rooms, rental cars and other items and services in business Travel environment are traditionally over the phone Data networks or in personal contact with the respective Provider ordered or booked. This happens partly through the Customers themselves, e.g. B. over BTX, sometimes with the involvement of one Travel agencies.

Reisebüros vermitteln in nicht geringem Umfang EDV-verfügbare Information, auf die ein Direktzugriff möglich ist. Ebenso besteht vielfach anstelle der EDV Buchung eines Reisebüros die Möglichkeit einer EDV Selbstbuchung des Kundens, der davon keinen Gebrauch macht, weil er nicht über einen geeigneten Datenanschluß verfügt oder sich für seine gelegentlichen Reise­ belange nicht mit der EDV auseinandersetzen will.Travel agencies mediate IT available to a large extent Information that can be accessed directly. As well often exists instead of the EDP booking of a travel agency  the possibility of an IT self-booking by the customer, who makes no use because he doesn't have a suitable one Data connection or for his occasional trip does not want to deal with EDP.

Jedes Reisebüro hat ein begrenztes Angebot und bestimmte Ge­ schäftszeiten. Der Kunde muß dort vielleicht warten und mit mehr oder weniger kompetentem und gut gelauntem Personal um­ gehen, dessen Arbeit wie jede menschliche Arbeit fehlerträchtig ist. Am Ende muß der Kunde das, was er bucht oder bestellt, dem Reisebüro auf mehr oder weniger umständliche Weise be­ zahlen.Every travel agency has a limited offer and certain ge business hours. The customer may have to wait there and join more or less competent and cheerful staff go, its work like any human work error prone is. At the end of the day, what the customer books or orders the travel agency in a more or less cumbersome way numbers.
