[0043] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0044] In this application, the terms "comprise", "contain" or any other variant thereof are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements not only includes those elements, but can also include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus. Without more limitations, the element defined by the phrase "comprises a" does not exclude the presence of additional identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes the element.

[0045] As known from the background art, currently, a user usually maintains a new fare and manually cancels an old fare in a fare publishing system; when the sale date of the new fare is inconsistent with the travel date, after the old fare is cancelled, problems such as the inability to review historical fares when refunding and changing, fare interruption, and no saleable fare will occur, thereby resulting in a high cost of maintaining the fare.

[0046] Therefore, the embodiments of the present application provide a method, device and related equipment for generating a supplementary fare, when a new fare is published, an old fare related to the new fare is screened out from a fare data cluster. If the new fare and the old fare meet a preset trigger condition, a supplementary fare is generated and the old fare is cancelled, and the new fare, the supplementary fare and the cancelled old fare are stored in the fare data cluster. The supplementary fare can guarantee the accuracy and uniqueness of the fare in its life cycle, and can help the airline company to efficiently maintain the fare, thereby reducing the cost of maintaining the fare.

[0047] It should be noted that the supplementary fare (supplementally generated fare) can guarantee the accuracy and uniqueness of the fare in its life cycle, and the supplementary fare has no effect on the fares maintained by the airline company (usually no need to modify the supplementary fare), so the supplementary fare can help the airline company to efficiently maintain the fare, thereby reducing the cost of maintaining the fare.

[0048] Referring to Figure 1 , a flowchart of a method for generating a supplementary fare provided by the embodiments of the present application is shown, and the method comprises:

[0049] Step S101: When a new fare is detected to be published, an old fare related to the new fare is screened out from a fare data cluster.

[0050] In some embodiments, the airline company user publishes a fare (needs to log in to the airline account when publishing), and the published fare is stored in the fare data cluster after being verified for legality, thereby completing the fare publishing.

[0051] It can be understood that the freight rate includes but is not limited to: cabin information of the voyage, sales date (starting sales date to ending sales date), travel date (effective date to expiration date), ticket price and applicable rules, etc.; wherein, the sales date is also called sales validity period, and the travel date is also called travel validity period.

[0052] More specifically, the freight rate includes but is not limited to: airline, origin, destination, cabin code, freight rate basis, service level, voyage type, rule number, freight rate amount, starting sales date, ending sales date, effective date, expiration date, etc.

[0053] In the process of implementing step S101, it is monitored in real time whether there is a new freight rate published. When detecting that a new freight rate is published, the old freight rate related to the new freight rate is filtered out from the freight rate data cluster.

[0054] More specifically, when detecting that a new freight rate is published, the freight rate with the same first designated information as the new freight rate is filtered out from the freight rate data cluster to obtain the old freight rate related to the new freight rate; wherein, the first designated information at least includes airline, origin, destination, cabin code, freight rate basis, voyage type, rule number.

[0055] That is, when detecting that a new freight rate is published, the freight rate with the same "airline", "origin", "destination", "cabin code", "freight rate basis", "voyage type", "rule number" as the new freight rate is filtered out from the freight rate data cluster to be used as the old freight rate related to the new freight rate.

[0056] Step S102: judging whether the new freight rate and the old freight rate meet the preset triggering condition. If the new freight rate and the old freight rate meet the preset triggering condition, step S103 is executed; if the new freight rate and the old freight rate do not meet the preset triggering condition, the new freight rate is stored.

[0057] In the process of implementing step S102, after filtering out the old freight rate related to the new freight rate from the freight rate data cluster, it is judged whether the new freight rate and the old freight rate meet the preset triggering condition. If the new freight rate and the old freight rate meet the preset triggering condition, step S103 is executed; if the new freight rate and the old freight rate do not meet the preset triggering condition, the new freight rate is stored.

[0058] Specifically, it is judged whether the starting sales date of the new freight rate is equal to the effective date, whether there is an intersection between the sales date of the new freight rate and the sales date of the old freight rate, and whether there is an intersection between the travel date of the new freight rate and the travel date of the old freight rate.

[0059] If the start sale date of the new fare is not equal to the effective date, and if there is an intersection between the sale dates of the new fare and the old fare (or there is an intersection), and if there is an intersection between the travel dates of the new fare and the old fare, it is determined that the new fare and the old fare meet the preset trigger condition, and step S103 is performed.

[0060] That is, if the new fare and the old fare have date intersections (sale date intersections and travel date intersections), and if the start sale date of the new fare is not equal to the effective date, it can be determined that the new fare and the old fare meet the preset trigger condition, and step S103 is performed.

[0061] The sale date is the start sale date to the end sale date, and the travel date is the effective date to the end date.

[0062] If the start sale date of the new fare is equal to the effective date, and / or if there is no intersection between the sale dates of the new fare and the old fare, and / or if there is no intersection between the travel dates of the new fare and the old fare, it is determined that the new fare and the old fare do not meet the preset trigger condition, and the new fare is stored at this time.

[0063] As can be seen from the above, the preset trigger condition includes the following two sub-conditions:

[0064] Sub-condition 1: The start sale date of the new fare is not equal to the effective date.

[0065] Sub-condition 2: There is an intersection between the sale dates of the new fare and the old fare, and there is an intersection between the travel dates of the new fare and the old fare.

[0066] When the new fare and the old fare meet the above sub-condition 1 and sub-condition 2 at the same time, it can be determined that the new fare and the old fare meet the preset trigger condition.

[0067] Step S103: Based on the new fare and the old fare, a supplementary fare is generated and the old fare is closed.

[0068] In the process of specifically implementing step S103, after it is determined that the new fare and the old fare meet the preset trigger condition, a supplementary fare is generated based on the new fare and the old fare, and the old fare is closed.

[0069] In some embodiments, the second specified information of the supplementary fare is the same as the old fare; wherein the second specified information at least includes: airline, origin, destination, cabin code, fare basis, service level, journey type, rule number, and fare amount.

[0070] That is, the "airline", "origin", "destination", "cabin code", "fare basis", "service level", "journey type", "rule number", and "fare amount" of the supplementary fare are consistent with the old fare.

[0071] The start sale date of the supplementary rate is the start sale date of the new rate; the effective date of the supplementary rate is the maximum of the start sale date of the new rate and the effective date of the old rate; the end sale date and the end date of the supplementary rate are both the day before the effective date of the new rate.

[0072] Specifically, in the process of generating the supplementary rate, the generation of the supplementary rate can be completed after the following settings are performed: the second designated information of the supplementary rate is set to be the same as the second designated information of the old rate; the start sale date of the supplementary rate = the start sale date of the new rate; the effective date of the supplementary rate = the maximum of the start sale date of the new rate and the effective date of the old rate; the end sale date of the supplementary rate = the day before the effective date of the new rate; and the end date of the supplementary rate = the day before the effective date of the new rate.

[0073] It should be noted that the supplementary rate can guarantee the accuracy and uniqueness of the rate in its life cycle, and has no effect on the rates maintained by the airline user, so the supplementary rate usually does not need to be modified.

[0074] In some embodiments, since the start sale date of the supplementary rate = the start sale date of the new rate, the end sale date of the old rate after the end is the day before the start sale date of the new rate or the supplementary rate.

[0075] Specifically, in the process of ending the old rate, the ending of the old rate can be completed after the following settings are performed: the end sale date of the old rate after the end = the day before the start sale date of the new rate, or the end sale date of the old rate after the end = the day before the start sale date of the supplementary rate.

[0076] As can be seen from the above related content about the new rate, the supplementary rate and the old rate after the end, there will be no situation of overlapping sale dates and overlapping travel dates between any two of the new rate, the supplementary rate and the old rate after the end (that is, there will be no situation of overlapping sale dates and overlapping travel dates at the same time).

[0077] Step S104: storing the new rate, the supplementary rate and the old rate after the end into the rate data cluster.

[0078] In the process of specifically implementing step S104, the new rate, the supplementary rate and the old rate after the end are stored into the rate data cluster for querying by a user (such as a passenger user).

[0079] In some embodiments, the system receives user query requests; queries the fare data cluster and outputs new fares, supplementary fares, or expired old fares that match the query request. In other words, users can query the corresponding new fares, supplementary fares, or expired old fares through the fare sales terminal.

[0080] For example, a passenger user initiates a query request (such as a fare search request or a fare calculation request) through the fare sales terminal. The terminal then queries the fare data cluster for fare products (new fares, supplementary fares, or old fares after the expiration date) that match the query request and outputs the fare products that match the query request to the passenger user.

[0081] In this embodiment of the invention, when a new fare is published, old fares related to the new fare are filtered from the fare data cluster. If the new fare and the old fare meet preset trigger conditions, a supplementary fare is generated and the old fare is terminated. The new fare, the supplementary fare, and the terminated old fare are then stored in the fare data cluster. The supplementary fare ensures the accuracy and uniqueness of fares throughout their lifecycle and helps airlines maintain fares efficiently, thereby reducing the cost of fare maintenance.

[0082] The method for generating supplementary fares mentioned in the above embodiments of the present invention can be applied to a fare publishing system. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 , Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the fare publication system is shown. Figure 2 It includes a freight rate publishing component 201, a freight rate data cluster 202, and a freight rate processing component 203.

[0083] Specifically, the fare publication component 201 is used to provide airlines with maintenance functions for fare policies, rules (calculation rules), configurations, and other related pricing strategies. The fare publication component 201 is essentially a front-end component that allows airlines to publish fares online in real time.

[0084] The fare data cluster 202 is used to store fare, rule, and configuration data maintained by the airline; the fare data cluster 202 is equivalent to a database cluster.

[0085] The fare processing component 203 is used to: automatically generate supplementary fares and automatically expire old fares based on the fare strategy information maintained by the airline, and synchronize the supplementary fares and expired old fares to the fare data cluster 202.

[0086] After synchronizing the supplementary fares and the old fares after the expiry date to the fare data cluster 202, the fare sales component can match passenger users' query requests (fare search requests or fare calculation requests) with relevant fares and return the matched fares to the passenger users.

[0087] To better explain the above-mentioned method of generating a supplementary fare, the following specific examples are provided to illustrate how the method can help airlines better maintain fares.

[0088] An airline creates a new special fare (new fare), which includes information such as airline, origin, destination, cabin code, fare basis, service class, journey type, rule number, fare amount, start sale date, end sale date, effective date, and expiration date.

[0089] The new fare is subjected to a legality check, which includes the following conditions: the start sale date must be later than the current date; the end sale date must be later than the start sale date; the effective date must be later than the start sale date; the expiration date must be later than the effective date; and the expiration date must be later than the end sale date.

[0090] After passing the legality check, the new fare is saved. The airline reports the new fare, and after approval by the Civil Aviation Administration, the new fare is officially released.

[0091] For example, the specific content of the new fare released by the airline is: origin BJS, destination SHA, effective date 20220307, expiration date 99991231, start sale date 20220301, end sale date 99991231, service class Y, cabin M, fare basis M, journey type OW, rule number RULE, and fare amount 1100 yuan.

[0092] When a new fare is detected, the old fare related to the new fare is selected. If the new fare and the old fare meet the preset trigger conditions, a supplementary fare is generated.

[0093] Suppose there is an existing old special fare with the following specific content: origin BJS, destination SHA, effective date 20220101, expiration date 99991231, start sale date 20220101, end sale date 99991231, service class Y, cabin M, fare basis M, journey type OW, rule number RULE, and fare amount 1000 yuan.

[0094] On January 2, 2022, the airline sold a ticket with a travel date of March 8, 2022, and the fare in the ticket belongs to the old fare. Combining Figure 3 The time relationship between the new fare and the old fare is shown in the example graph. The specific content of the fare in the ticket is: 20220101 < sale date January 2, 2022 <9999123>1; 20220101 < travel date March 8, 2022 <9999123>1; and fare amount 1000 yuan.

[0095] But on February 28, 2022, the airline adjusted the fare and declared a new fare, the specific content of which is: 20220301 < sales date <9999123>1 (default to sell every other day); 20220307 < travel date <9999123>1 (effective after 7 days of the reported sub-batch); the fare amount is 1100 yuan.

[0096] Therefore, on March 1, 2022 to December 31, 9999, the sale of the travel date is March 7, 2022 to December 31, 9999, and the fare is 1100 yuan. The old fare of 1000 yuan and the new fare of 1100 yuan are valid at the same time and the prices are different, which does not meet the requirement of uniqueness of published fares.

[0097] As Figure 4 The example graph shown in the old fare to the new fare effective date the day before can be seen, if the old fare is cut off to the day before the start of the new fare sales date (i.e. March 6, 2022), the old fare is not modified. The start date of the new fare is March 1, 2022, and the travel effective date is March 7, 2022; therefore, on March 1, 2022 to March 6, 2022, the sale of the travel date is March 7, 2022 to December 31, 9999, and the fare is 1100 yuan. The old fare of 1000 yuan and the new fare of 1100 yuan will appear, which still does not meet the uniqueness of the published fare amount.

[0098] As Figure 5 The example graph shown in the old fare to the new fare effective date the day before can be seen, if the old fare is cut off to the day before the start of the new fare sales date (i.e. March 6, 2022), the old fare is not modified. The start date of the new fare is March 1, 2022, and the travel effective date is March 7, 2022; therefore, on March 1, 2022 to March 6, 2022, the sale of the travel date is March 7, 2022 to December 31, 9999, and the fare is 1100 yuan. The old fare of 1000 yuan and the new fare of 1100 yuan will appear, which still does not meet the uniqueness of the published fare amount.

[0099] As Figure 6The example diagram shown in the figure can be seen, if the cut-off sales date of the old fare is cut off to the day before the starting sales date of the new fare (i.e., February 28, 2022), and the cut-off date of the old fare is not modified; for the ticket sold on January 2, 2022, the travel date of which is March 8, 2022, the price can be located from the old fare, which meets the condition of historical fare review but new problems will occur: the starting sales date of the new fare is March 1, 2022, and the travel effective date is March 7, 2022, so during the period from March 1, 2022 to March 6, 2022, the fare of the travel date from March 1, 2022 to March 6, 2022 cannot be sold, which will affect the sales revenue of the airline; in view of the foregoing problem, it is necessary to add a supplementary fare and cut off the old fare.

[0100] In order to ensure the uniqueness of the price of each ticket, the traceability of the ticket, the sale of the fare by the airline, and the maintenance of the fare by the airline, the present solution proposes a method for generating a supplementary fare, which generates a supplementary fare and cuts off an old fare through steps S101 to S104. The specific content of the supplementary fare and the cut-off old fare generated by the present solution can be seen in Figure 7 . Through Figure 7 It can be seen that the second specified information of the supplementary fare is the same as that of the old fare; the starting sales date of the supplementary fare is the starting sales date of the new fare; the effective date of the supplementary fare is the maximum of the starting sales date of the new fare and the effective date of the old fare; the cut-off sales date and the cut-off date of the supplementary fare are both the day before the effective date of the new fare; and the cut-off sales date of the cut-off old fare is the day before the starting sales date of the new fare or the supplementary fare.

[0101] There is no situation of overlapping sales dates and overlapping travel dates between any two of the new fare, the supplementary fare, and the cut-off old fare. By generating a supplementary fare, the accuracy and uniqueness of the fare in its life cycle can be guaranteed, and the airline can efficiently maintain the fare, thereby reducing the cost of maintaining the fare.

[0102] Corresponding to the method for generating a supplementary fare provided by the above-mentioned embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 8 the present embodiment also provides a structural block diagram of a device for generating a supplementary fare, which comprises a screening unit 801, a judgment unit 802, a processing unit 803, and a storage unit 804.

[0103] The screening unit 801 is configured to screen the old fare related to the new fare from the fare data cluster when detecting the release of the new fare.

[0104] In specific implementation, the screening unit 801 is specifically configured to: when detecting the new fare release, screening the fares with the same first designated information as the new fare from the fare data cluster to obtain the old fare related to the new fare; wherein the first designated information at least includes the airline, the origin, the destination, the cabin code, the fare basis, the journey type, and the rule number.

[0105] The judging unit 802 is configured to judge whether the new fare and the old fare satisfy a preset trigger condition.

[0106] In specific implementation, the judging unit 802 is specifically configured to: judge whether the starting sale date of the new fare is equal to the effective date, and judge whether there is an intersection between the sale date of the new fare and the sale date of the old fare, and judge whether there is an intersection between the travel date of the new fare and the travel date of the old fare; if the starting sale date of the new fare is not equal to the effective date, and if there is an intersection between the sale date of the new fare and the sale date of the old fare, and if there is an intersection between the travel date of the new fare and the travel date of the old fare, it is determined that the new fare and the old fare satisfy the preset trigger condition.

[0107] The processing unit 803 is configured to, if the new fare and the old fare satisfy the preset trigger condition, generate a supplementary fare and stop the old fare based on the new fare and the old fare.

[0108] In some embodiments, the second designated information of the supplementary fare is the same as that of the old fare; the starting sale date of the supplementary fare is the starting sale date of the new fare; the effective date of the supplementary fare is the maximum value between the starting sale date of the new fare and the effective date of the old fare; the stop sale date and the stop date of the supplementary fare are both the day before the effective date of the new fare.

[0109] The second designated information at least includes: the airline, the origin, the destination, the cabin code, the fare basis, the service level, the journey type, the rule number, and the fare amount.

[0110] In some embodiments, the stop sale date of the old fare after being stopped is the day before the starting sale date of the new fare or the supplementary fare.

[0111] The storage unit 804 is configured to store the new fare, the supplementary fare, and the old fare after being stopped into the fare data cluster.
