Introduction to GalileoTerminal usage
You can find further information about GalileoTerminal and its features on our product website at
http://www.cee-systems.com.
What is GalileoTerminal?
GalileoTerminal has been designed for travel agents who may need to change travel arrangements in
the Galileo™ or Apollo™ system at anytime from anywhere. It is a unique application for accessing
the Galileo™ or Apollo™ system using a standard internet browser. The first version of this product
was released in 2003 and since then our product has been upgraded several times to fulfill our
clients’ needs. All current contract conditions between the agency and Travelport GDS remain the
same while using GalileoTerminal.
Who is GalileoTerminal most suitable for?
GalileoTerminal provides any agency with all necessary tools for proper flight tickets booking and
handling reservations, fare quoting, issuing/reissuing and refunding tickets. It is an ideal full-value
tool for accessing the Galileo™ or Apollo™ system from an office computer, personal computer, iPad,
an Android tablet or from anywhere the internet is accessible. In addition, travel agents who are “on
the road” most of the time will find GalileoTerminal the most useful application thanks to the
possibility of booking and finalizing their customers’ travel requirements remotely.
Security




Connection from agent’s browser to GalileoTerminal servers uses the SSL encryption.
Connection from GalileoTerminal servers to the Galileo™ or Apollo™ host servers uses
secured leased lines.
GalileoTerminal applies several security methods with a two-password combination against
an unauthorized usage.
GalileoTerminal account is locked when login fails 5 times, and the Country Administrator is
informed about it via GalileoTerminal Mail.
Upgrades
All GalileoTerminal users are using the most up-to-date version of our product. New versions are
loaded seamlessly and GalileoTerminal distributors/users are informed about new enhancements via
Newsletters that are issued on a regular basis.

GalileoTerminal Interface Record (GTIR)
For the back-office and accounting purposes, GalileoTerminal provides agencies with XML-structured
records of all ticketed reservations. The records are created at the moment of the TKP transaction
(parameterized TKP entries are also covered) and stored on GalileoTerminal servers. Tickets issued by
the agency outside GalileoTerminal (via Galileo Desktop, Smartpoint, etc.) are processed during the
nightly maintenance, and relevant GTIR records are created. (NEW)
All records are available for the agency via a simple form under the GTIR item of the main menu.
GTIR can be retrieved for a unique reservation, by the Record Locator or by a list of reservations that
can be used for selection of reservations for the download.
Auto-upload of the GTIR file
GTIR can be uploaded to the agency’s server automatically. Please see GTIR settings in the account
preferences within the header controls described above.
More sophisticated and robotic methods can be used for GTIR downloads. Please contact us at
support@galileoterminal.com directly for details you are interested in.

Send an SMS from the terminal window
GalileoTerminal SMS Service allows the agent to send an SMS directly from the terminal window.
There are several ways how to do it:
With message preview


A unique GalileoTerminal command ensures that the SMS will be compiled and displayed in
the terminal window for a visual check.
Examples of commands for SMS compilation:
•
SMSET/P1 – an SMS ET is compiled for the passenger 1 from a recent PNR
•
SMSIT – an SMS Itinerary is compiled for the recent PNR
•
SMS/textofmessage - compiles a free text message for the number from the PNR
M* element
•
SMS420603332233/textofmessage - compiles a free text message for the typed
phone number
•
SMSET/P1/420603332233 - compiles an SMS ET for the passenger 1 to be sent to
the typed number.
Without message preview


If the SENDSMS command is used, the SMS message can be generated immediately without
a previous display. All mandatory fields have to be filled in. It means that the passenger
phone number must be included in the PNR from where GalileoTerminal can retrieve it, or it
has to be specified by the agent in the entered command. The value for the Sender field is
taken from the SMS options in the My profile item in the main menu.
Examples of direct commands for SMS generation:
•
SENDSMSET/P1 – an SMS ET for the passenger 1 is sent for the recent PNR
•
SENDSMSET/P1/420603434861 - sends an SMS ET for the passenger 1 to the
entered phone number
•
SENDSMSIT – an SMS Itinerary is sent for the recent PNR
•
SENDSMS/textOfMessage - sends a free text message for the number from the
PNR M* element
•
SENDSMS420603112233/textOfMessage - sends a free text message for the
typed phone number
The client phone number is taken automatically from the reservation when it is entered into the
Phone field in this format: “P.PRGM*42011223344”. If it’s not in the reservation, the agent has to
type the number manually.

A double-click on the history host command in the context window automatically sends the
command to the host.
A sequence of entries can be typed directly into the terminal window. Each command has to
be separated by the “|” character.
Highlighted shortcuts are immediately sent to the host, others need to be transmitted by the
Enter key.
An empty line is not sent to the host by pressing the Enter key.
The layout of all opened windows within the GalileoTerminal workspace is stored when you
log off.
An unlimited number of terminal windows can be opened.
The data from Sales report can be printed out even if there is no linkage or Galileo Print
Manager available. GalileoTerminal will compile a printer output for you (please see the
Account preferences paragraph above for details).
The data from Sales report can be stored in a file using the FILE-SR command in the terminal
window. The format of the stored file shall be selected in Account preferences – Settings –
Report format list box (please see the Account preferences paragraph above for details).
The syntax of the command is:
 FILE-SR/PCC/DDMMM-DDMMM/CU-XXX/YY
 where:
 PCC – is the PCC of the branch
 DDMMM-DDMMM – is the date period (32 days in the past when any ticket was issued is
the maximum) OR you can enter MMM1 for the first half of the month or MMM2 for the
second half of given month (e.g. FILE-SR/MAY2/EK) (NEW)
 CU – is the currency parameter
 XXX – is the currency 3-letter code
•
The shortcut combination CTRL+W clears the content of the active terminal
window and CTRL+S clears the content of all opened terminal windows.
•
The +J entry returns a Client ID mapped to the actual GalileoTerminal
account and displays it in the terminal window.
•
The shortcut that automatically sends the host Signon and password can look
like this: SON/ZKG|PASSWORD?WINTER1
 YY – is the airline 2-letter code (NEW)
