GxWorks Travel Benchmark Data Screenshots
Benchmark Search Screen:
Benchmark data can be searched by specifying a specific city pair, or by simply specifying a destination. If a city
pair is selected, airfare benchmark data will be provided in addition to hotel and car data for the destination city.
Benchmark Details Screen: Airfare
The Benchmark Details Screen provides the raw information used to calculate a particular benchmark. The price of booking
travel 21, 7, and 1 day ahead are displayed, along with the lowest price vendor for each timeframe.
Benchmark Details Screen: Hotels
This screen is similar to that displayed for Airfare or Rental Car data, but includes some additional information
since hotels benchmarks are calculated differently. The price of booking a hotel in a particular destination 21, 7, and 1 day
ahead is shown, along with a list of all hotels used to calculate the average price for each booking timeframe. Since
hotel quality and location varies widely, a survey of 3 star and above hotels is used in determining benchmark hotel prices.
The lowest price vendor for each timeframe is also displayed.
Price Charts/Graphs
The lower half of the Benchmark Details screen provides graphs of how prices change over time and how booking in
advance affects prices. These graphs can help potentially determine patterns in price movements over time.
