  1. What does travel API means and how to integrate it in the travel portals? Travel API basically is an arrangement where information from third party travel sectors, suppliers & wholesaler in domains of hotels, flights and other travel related services is acquired to help travel agents or websites make an inventory of real-time information for end users — rather than manually filling in the exhaustive data in the CMS’s admin panel.
