"Simplifying the Process of Collecting Tourist Personal Information

When tourists sign up for a travel activity, operators need to collect the tourists' information and then provide it to various service providers such as airlines, hotels, and transportation companies. Regardless of whether this process is done manually or automatically, it takes time to complete even with the best documentation procedures, and there are communication costs involved. If tourist information is stored on a blockchain, these procedures can be significantly simplified. Travel operators do not need to create user accounts with these service providers, nor do they need to provide tourist information in different formats repeatedly. On the blockchain, information only needs to be entered once and can be shared with all participants on the blockchain, eliminating the need to input the same data into different systems.

Clear Visibility of Travel Progress

Travel agencies need to know the status of tour guides, the safety of tourists, and whether the trip is progressing according to the plan. With blockchain, all progress can be clearly seen, including boarding, hotel check-ins, transportation times, and more. This reduces the frequency of travel agencies needing to contact tour guides.

Custom Service Contracts and Automated Commission Calculation

Typically, travel agencies and hotel operators sign legally binding agreements to protect the interests of both parties. Hotel operators expect travel agencies to bring in tourists, and, in return, they offer commissions. The contract may specify that if bookings are made at least 10 days in advance during a certain period, the hotel can offer a higher commission. Therefore, travel agencies must calculate all accommodation costs and subtract commissions during the settlement period. Accommodation costs vary based on room type, number of guests, and duration, making the calculation time-consuming. Through blockchain smart contracts, the contract terms can be pre-defined in the program to ensure that the process follows the contract. The program can also update the fees for each period, and payments can be made directly on the system without the need for international transaction fees."

Blockchain is nothing more than a type of network or data format.
