GDS connectivity & booking
Long-running integrations with Galileo, Worldspan, Amadeus, Sabre, and Travelport — from Hungary’s first online ticketing stack to modern web-service and Universal API connections.
Introducing Büchler & Wagner
How the company was formed, what the team built in travel distribution and dynamic packaging, and how that experience feeds today’s aviation and sales products.
Büchler & Wagner was founded by Róbert Bánki and Zsolt Wagner. Since 2000 they have worked together across a wide range of IT projects — from static websites to sophisticated online booking engines and, most recently, recommendation-driven systems.
Over the years the team has accumulated deep, hands-on experience with the major global distribution systems (GDS) used worldwide. They have connected numerous applications to Galileo, Worldspan, Amadeus, and Sabre.
Selected milestones
2001
Delivered the first Worldspan API application — at the time, Hungary’s first online flight-ticket booking system of its kind.
2005
Shipped Galileo XML under the product name Netbook, which led the Hungarian market for ten years.
2007
Launched the first Hungarian and Central European dynamic package-tour booking engine, powering the Triplanet.hu travel portal on Galileo and GTA XML.
2011
Released TraBase, integrating multiple GDS feeds and hotel-distributor systems in one platform.
2012–2014
Rolled out Amadeus Web Services (2012), Sabre Web Services (2013), and Travelport Universal API (2014).
Dynamic packaging
The first dynamic-packaging booking stack went live in 2007 as part of an in-house B2C initiative. Early testing showed that in Eastern Europe many travellers prefer choosing from ready-made, bookable bundles rather than designing every leg themselves — so the team designed a dynamic package builder that could assemble competitive offers automatically at scale.
Because the combinatorial search space exploded, they also engineered an intelligent recommender that surfaces the strongest match for each shopper — a pattern that materially improved conversion for partner sites.
Aviation focus
Since 2016 the company has concentrated on general aviation, especially pilot training. Its training-management platform is among the most capable in the segment and is on a roadmap to add artificial-intelligence features.
Sales systems
Büchler & Wagner has been building sales systems since 2020; by 2026 it operates AI-driven sales automation for clients who need the same immediacy the team once brought to airline distribution.
