Obtaining Car Rental Make and Model from Car Availability REST APIs


The car availability REST API returns car types and their associated fares, but I can't find a way to determine each potential car rental's make and model. Does anyone know a way to do this which doesn't involve using any SOAP APIs?

Thanks for the help!


Solution

  • Actually no, the only service, at the moment, that could be used to return makes' information would be Car Location Details

    This is a basic example of how I believe the request should be done:

    <OTA_VehLocDetailRQ ReturnHostCommand="true" Version="2.2.0" xmlns="http://webservices.sabre.com/sabreXML/2011/10">
        <VehAvailRQCore>
            <VehRentalCore>
                <PickUpLocation LocationCode="MIA"/>
            </VehRentalCore>
            <VendorPrefs>
                <CarExtras Code="MAKES"/>
                <VendorPref Code="ZE"/>
            </VendorPrefs>
        </VehAvailRQCore>
    </OTA_VehLocDetailRQ>
