[0029] Figure 1 The main steps of a business travel air ticket booking method in one embodiment are shown, referring to Figure 1 As shown, the business travel air ticket booking method of this embodiment includes:

[0030] Step S110, in response to the flight selection request of the business travel booking terminal, obtaining the cabin and price verification token bound to the selected target flight, and returning the cabin and price verification token to the business travel booking terminal.

[0031] When booking a business travel ticket, the business travel booking terminal selects a flight and issues a flight selection request. The flight selection request carries the identification information of the selected target flight and may also carry the identification information of the alternative cabin. The cabin and price verification token is bound to the selected target flight. All subsequent requests sent by the business travel booking terminal carry the cabin and price verification token, so that the server can verify the cabin and price of the selected target flight according to the cabin and price verification token.

[0032] Step S120, in response to the order submission request carrying the cabin and price verification token from the business travel booking terminal, determine whether the cabin price information of the selected target flight has changed relative to the initiation time of the order submission request based on the cabin and price verification token.

[0033] In response to the flight selection request from the business travel booking end, an information filling page will also be generated for the business travel booking end to fill in the passenger information. The business travel booking end completes the information filling and submits the order, that is, sends an order submission request. The order submission request carries a cabin inspection and price verification token, and the server can realize accurate and convenient cabin inspection and price verification of the selected target flight based on the cabin inspection and price verification token. Through the cabin inspection and price verification token, the cabin inspection and price verification of the selected target flight is realized at two key nodes of the business travel air ticket booking process, namely, the initiation time of the flight selection request and the initiation time of the order submission request, so as to judge whether the cabin price information of the selected target flight has changed.

[0034] Step S130: If yes, the change result of the cabin price of the selected target flight is returned to the business travel booking terminal, and a business travel air ticket order is created upon receiving a confirmation instruction from the business travel booking terminal based at least on the changed cabin price information of the selected target flight.

[0035] When the cabin price information of the selected target flight changes, the server can accurately obtain the flight cabin price change information and feedback it to the business travel booking end, and create a business travel air ticket order based on the user's confirmation according to the changed cabin price information. This can reduce the user's repeated logins and the user does not have to log out and reselect the flight, thereby optimizing the user experience. The service system can continue to create orders and avoid repeatedly starting the order creation process, thereby saving system overhead.

[0036] In one embodiment, in the above step S110, obtaining the cabin and price verification token bound to the selected target flight may also include: obtaining the first cabin price information of the selected target flight at the time of initiation of the flight selection request according to the cabin and price verification token.

[0037] By obtaining the first cabin price information, the cabin price of the flight selected by the business travel booking terminal can be locked and stored while obtaining the cabin and price verification token, so as to facilitate the subsequent comparison of whether the cabin price information of the selected target flight has changed. The first cabin price information specifically refers to all available cabins and corresponding prices of the selected target flight at the time of initiation of the flight selection request.

[0038] Furthermore, in the above step S120, whether the cabin price information of the selected target flight has changed relative to the initiation time of the flight selection request when the order submission request is initiated is determined based on the cabin and price verification token. Specifically, it may include: obtaining the second cabin price information of the selected target flight at the initiation time of the order submission request based on the cabin and price verification token; comparing the second cabin price information with the first cabin price information to determine whether the cabin price information of the selected target flight has changed.

[0039] The second class price information specifically refers to the target class and corresponding price of the selected target flight at the time when the order submission request is initiated. The target class is carried in the order submission request and is usually consistent with the alternative class selected by the user when selecting the flight. If the alternative class selected by the user when selecting the flight is sold out, the class with the smallest price difference with the alternative class can be used as the target class, and the second class price information is obtained accordingly. According to the cabin and price verification token, the cabin and price of the selected target flight are verified at two key nodes in the business travel air ticket booking process where the user selects the flight and submits the order, so that the changes in the cabin price information of the selected target flight can be accurately obtained, which solves the problem that users in the traditional business travel air ticket booking process cannot accurately perceive the changes in the flight cabin price when the order is submitted.

[0040] In one embodiment, in the above step S130, a business travel air ticket order is created upon receiving a confirmation instruction from the business travel booking terminal at least based on the changed cabin price information of the selected target flight. Specifically, it may include: pre-creating an order based on the flight information of the selected target flight and the changed cabin price information, and the flight information is obtained by querying the cabin and price verification token when the cabin and price verification token bound to the selected target flight is obtained; upon receiving a confirmation instruction from the business travel booking terminal, creating a business travel air ticket order based on the pre-creating order result.

[0041] Through pre-order creation, the second cabin price information obtained by checking the cabin and price of the selected target flight in response to the order submission request is first filled into the business travel air ticket order to be created to generate the pre-order creation result; it can be achieved that when receiving the confirmation instruction from the business travel booking end, the pre-order creation result can be used directly to formally create the order without obtaining the price cabin information again, avoiding duplication of the order creation process, thereby simplifying the order creation process and improving the response speed of order creation. In addition, the basic flight information of the selected target flight can be synchronously queried and obtained and locked for storage when obtaining the cabin and price verification token, so that it is convenient to directly read and use it when pre-order creation.

[0042] In one embodiment, in the above step S130, determining whether the cabin price information of the selected target flight has changed relative to the initiation time of the flight selection request based on the cabin price verification token at the time of initiation of the order submission request may also include: if not, creating a business travel air ticket order based on the flight information and cabin price information of the selected target flight, and the flight information is obtained by querying the cabin price verification token when obtaining the cabin price verification token bound to the selected target flight. The cabin price information here specifically refers to the second cabin price information obtained according to the order submission request.

[0043] Figure 2 The implementation scenario of the business travel air ticket booking method in one embodiment is shown, referring to Figure 2 As shown, a business travel air ticket booking method implemented by the business travel system 200b, the aggregation engine 200c and the ordering system 200d in conjunction with the business travel ticket booking terminal 200a in a specific scenario is shown, including:

[0044] S210, the business travel system 200b responds to the flight selection request of the business travel booking terminal 200a and initiates a pre-order request; S220, the aggregation engine 200c obtains the cabin inspection and price verification token bound to the selected target flight according to the pre-order request, and returns it to the business travel booking terminal 200a. The aggregation engine 200c will also conduct a cabin inspection and price verification on the selected target flight through the cabin inspection and price verification token.

[0045] S230, the business travel system 200b responds to the order submission request carrying the cabin and price verification token from the business travel booking terminal 200a, and initiates an order creation request carrying the cabin and price verification token; S240, the aggregation engine 200c performs a secondary cabin and price verification on the selected target flight through the cabin and price verification token according to the order creation request, and obtains the cabin and price verification result (i.e., including the above-mentioned first cabin price information and second cabin price information).

[0046] S250, the business travel system 200b determines whether the cabin price information of the selected target flight has changed based on the cabin and price verification results; if not, executes S260, the business travel system 200b initiates a formal order creation request carrying the second cabin price information and the cabin and price verification token to the ordering system 200d; thereby, the ordering system 200d obtains the flight information (locked and stored) of the selected target flight from the aggregation engine 200c based on the cabin and price verification token, and creates a system order based on the flight information and the second cabin price information.

[0047] If yes, S270 is executed, the business travel system 200b returns the cabin price change result to the business travel booking terminal 200a, and S280 is executed, the business travel system 200b initiates a pre-order creation request carrying the second cabin price information and the cabin price verification token to the order system 200d. Thus, the order system 200d obtains the flight information (locked and stored) of the selected target flight from the aggregation engine 200c according to the cabin price verification token, and pre-creates the order according to the flight information and the second cabin price information; and, when the order system 200d receives the confirmation instruction from the business travel booking terminal 200a, it creates the system order according to the pre-order creation result.

[0048] In one embodiment, in the above-mentioned business travel air ticket booking process, the data storage information required is shown in Table 1 below:

[0049] Table 1-Price changes during booking process

[0050]

[0051]

[0052] Furthermore, in one embodiment, since the business travel air ticket is paid by the public account, it needs to wait for authorization, and the payment is deducted and the ticket is issued after the authorization is passed. If the authorization time is too long, the flight cabin information will change. Therefore, when booking a ticket on the business travel order side, the relevant booking information, especially the price information, is synchronized to the company payment side, so that the company payment side can learn about the relevant booking information, especially the price information, in advance, and speed up the authorization process.

[0053] Specifically, when the result of the cabin price change of the selected target flight is returned to the business travel booking terminal, it also includes: synchronizing the cabin price information of the selected target flight at the time of initiating the order submission request (i.e., the second cabin price information mentioned above) to the company payment terminal associated with the business travel booking terminal (the association here refers to belonging to the same business travel account), so that the company payment terminal can timely understand the amount of the pending payment items to be generated. When the business travel ticket order is created upon receiving the confirmation instruction from the business travel ticket order terminal, it also includes: synchronizing the creation information of the business travel ticket order to the company payment terminal, so that the company payment terminal can timely understand the progress of the pending payment items to be generated. Furthermore, when the system returns the order creation to the business travel ticket order terminal, and the business travel ticket order then applies for payment authorization from the company payment terminal based on it, the company payment terminal can quickly perform the payment authorization operation when it has fully understood the amount and progress of the pending payment items, so as to improve the efficiency of business travel ticket booking and avoid the change of flight cabin information due to too long authorization time.

[0054] Furthermore, after authorization and before ticketing, the order number can be used to check cabin space and price. If there is a change in flight cabin information, the authorizer and the ticket booker will be asked whether they accept the price change.

[0055] Specifically, after creating a business travel air ticket order when receiving the confirmation instruction from the business travel booking end, it may also include: after receiving the payment authorization operation from the company payment end, before issuing the ticket, checking the cabin and price of the selected target flight, and judging whether the current cabin price information of the selected target flight has changed relative to the cabin price information at the time of initiating the order submission request; if so, initiating a query request to the company payment end whether to agree to the price change; if the company payment end returns the consent information, the created business travel air ticket order is modified according to the current cabin price information, and the company payment end makes up the price difference before issuing the ticket; if the company payment end returns the disagreement information, judging whether the payment authorization operation has timed out, if so, the company payment end makes up the price difference before issuing the ticket, that is, the customer shall bear the price difference loss if the authorization has timed out, and the price difference shall be automatically made up and the ticket shall be issued if the authorization has not timed out, that is, the TMC shall bear the price difference loss if the authorization has not timed out.

[0056] In one embodiment, in the above authorization-related scenarios, the data storage information required is shown in Table 2 below:

[0057] Table 2-Price change order table after authorization

[0058]

[0059]

[0060] Therefore, the above-mentioned business travel air ticket booking method can solve the problem of changes in flight cabin information in different stages of the business travel air ticket booking process.

[0061] Furthermore, in some embodiments, considering that more passenger information needs to be filled in in the scenario of business travel air ticket booking, in order to facilitate the business travel booking end and avoid taking up too much time to fill in passenger-related information one by one, which may cause changes in flight cabin information, a unified data import service can be provided to the business travel booking end.

[0062] Specifically, after responding to the flight selection request from the business travel booking end, it may also include: when the business travel booking end triggers the import button of the information filling page generated based on the flight selection request, providing the business travel booking end with an interface containing jump interfaces of multiple applications; determining the target interface according to the interface authorization indication returned by the business travel booking end, reading the passenger information from the corresponding application through the target interface, and automatically importing the passenger information into the information filling page.

[0063] Figure 3 A schematic diagram of an information filling page in an embodiment is shown, referring to Figure 3As shown, an import button 310 is configured on the information filling page 300. When the import button 310 is triggered, an interface 320 containing jump interfaces (API1, API 2, ... API n) of multiple applications may pop up. The applications include: office applications (such as document management software, OA process system, etc.), social applications (which may include the current mainstream social software) and real-time acquisition applications (such as camera software and its photo library). With the jump interface selected by the user as the target interface, the passenger information can be read from the corresponding application through the target interface.

[0064] In the business travel scenario, the ticket booker usually counts the traveler information (i.e. passenger information) before booking the ticket. For example, a company needs to organize 20 employees to fly from Shanghai to Beijing to participate in an event on January 10, 2022. The ticket booker will count the flight information of these 20 employees (including name, ID number, etc.) before booking the ticket, and store it in the office application "WPS" on its business travel booking terminal. In the process of booking business travel tickets, the ticket booker can use the unified data import service to automatically import the passenger information stored in the office application "WPS" directly into the information filling page 300. The import results are shown in the figure, such as Passenger 1 to Passenger n. The user can also further select the final target passenger as needed, without having to fill in the passenger information one by one, which is convenient and quick.

[0065] In one embodiment, passenger information is read from a corresponding application via a target interface, including: reading passenger information carrying key itinerary information (such as departure date, destination city, etc.) associated with a selected target flight from a corresponding application via a target interface.

[0066] Specifically, the business travel booking terminal related application of the business travel booking terminal of the business travel booker usually stores more than one list of business travel personnel. For example, in the office application "WPS" of the above-mentioned business travel booking terminal, several lists of business travel personnel may be stored, named by departure date and destination city, for example: list of personnel flying to Beijing on January 10, list of personnel flying to Tianjin on January 20, list of personnel flying to Sanya on January 30, etc. The departure date and destination city of the selected target flight are January 10 and Beijing respectively. Then, after determining the target interface according to the interface authorization indication returned by the business travel booking terminal, the passenger information carrying the key itinerary information "January 10 and Beijing" can be read from the corresponding application through the target interface, that is, the passenger information in the "List of Personnel Flying to Beijing on January 10" table can be read to avoid users from selecting the wrong table, which can facilitate user operation, improve ticket booking efficiency, and enhance user experience.

[0067] In addition, passenger information can also be read from social applications, such as reading passenger information with key itinerary information associated with the selected target flight from the office group of the social software on the business travel booking side. In addition, passenger information can also be read from real-time collection applications, such as users can trigger camera software to take images, or import images from the photo library. The business travel booking side can obtain relevant passenger information from the image through OCR text recognition technology.

[0068] In summary, the above-mentioned business travel air ticket booking method can accurately and conveniently check the cabin and price of the selected target flight at the key nodes of the business travel air ticket booking process through the cabin and price verification token, identify and feedback the cabin price changes of the selected target flight, reduce the user's repeated login, optimize the user experience, and save system overhead; in addition, it can also avoid the business travel booking end taking up too much time to fill in the passenger-related information and causing changes in flight cabin information through the data import service, thereby ensuring the smooth booking of business travel air tickets.

[0069] The embodiment of the present invention also provides a business travel ticket reservation system, which can be used to implement the business travel ticket reservation method described in any of the above embodiments. The features and principles of the business travel ticket reservation method described in any of the above embodiments can be applied to the following business travel ticket reservation system embodiments.
