在首次集成会议中用这份清单对齐流程、支付、出票、预订后和上线准备。

第一次集成会议时,直接用这页。

目标很直接。

开完会后,主流程、责任归属和上线路径都要明确。

What this meeting should achieve

By the end of kickoff, both sides should agree on:

  • the booking flow to implement

  • the price refresh point before booking

  • the payment mode by business case

  • the ticketing status handling model

  • whether seat or baggage must be supported before purchase

  • who owns refund and change follow-up

  • what is required before UAT and go-live

1

Confirm the commercial and product fit

Clarify whether Atlas is the main shopping source or the final booking and pricing layer.

2

Choose the booking flow

Decide whether the standard search flow or Get Offer flow is the main implementation path.

3

Confirm payment and ticketing design

Align deposit or VCC usage, polling logic, and final state handling.

4

Confirm post-booking ownership

Agree how refund, change, schedule change, and urgent cases will be handled.

5

Confirm launch path

Agree sandbox scope, UAT expectations, and go-live prerequisites.

Section 1: Business and system fit

Ask these first:

  • Is Atlas your main shopping source?

  • Or do you already have your own shopping engine?

  • Do you need Atlas mainly for final bookable price confirmation?

  • Do you need one flow for all airlines, or selective routing by carrier?

Decision to record

Write down one of these as the main role of Atlas:

  • primary shopping and booking layer

  • final pricing and booking layer

  • selective supplier in a multi-source system

Section 2: Booking flow

Choose the main path.

Standard search path

Use this when Atlas is your main shopping source.

Main chain:

  1. search.do

  2. verify.do

  3. order.do

  4. pay.do

  5. queryOrderDetails.do

Get Offer path

Use this when the target itinerary is already known.

Main chain:

  1. getOffers.do

  2. order.do

  3. pay.do

  4. queryOrderDetails.do

Questions to settle

  • Which path is the default production path?

  • When do you refresh price before booking?

  • Will your system block stale pricing after long delays?

  • Will you support both flows or only one?

See:

Section 3: Pricing integrity

This is usually the highest-risk topic.

Align on these rules:

  • search result is not the final booking promise

  • verify or Get Offer should be used close to booking time

  • long delays increase failure and mismatch risk

  • latest verified or offered price is the source of truth for order creation

Questions to settle

  • What is the latest point where price must be refreshed?

  • What happens if the user returns after a delay?

  • Will markup be applied before or after final refresh?

  • Which value is shown to the user when price changes?

Section 4: Fare content and ancillaries

Set expectations early.

Questions to settle

  • Do you need fare family display?

  • Do you need baggage upsell before booking?

  • Do you need seat map before booking?

  • Do you need post-ticketing baggage or seat sales?

  • Can ancillary lookup stay optional in the first release?

Important rule

Do not force ancillary queries into the base flow unless they are required.

See Seats & Baggage.

Section 5: Payment model

Confirm the primary payment path before build starts.

Main options

  • Deposit

  • VCC pass-through

Questions to settle

  • Which payment mode is the default?

  • Will payment mode differ by airline?

  • Does the client provide VCC cards?

  • What happens when VCC is unavailable for a specific order?

  • How will refund expectations be shown to operations teams?

Important rule

Atlas does not issue VCC cards.

See Payments.

Section 6: Ticketing and booking status

Treat ticketing as asynchronous.

Questions to settle

  • Will the client poll after pay.do?

  • Which state is treated as final success?

  • When will the client surface airline PNR to agents or users?

  • How will duplicate payment be prevented?

  • What identifiers are stored for follow-up?

Minimum identifiers to retain

  • routingIdentifier

  • sessionId or OfferId

  • orderNo

  • pnrCode

  • airline PNR when available

See Query Order.

Section 7: Post-booking operations

This part is often under-scoped.

Questions to settle

  • Who submits refunds?

  • Who follows up delayed refunds?

  • How are changes requested?

  • Who monitors schedule changes?

  • What is the process for urgent departure-day cases?

Important rules

  • refund path depends on payment mode

  • change handling is routed through ATRIP service requests

  • webhook should not be the only reconciliation source

See:

Section 8: Delivery plan

End the kickoff with delivery expectations.

Questions to settle

  • Which scope is included in sandbox first?

  • What is required before UAT starts?

  • Which UAT track applies?

  • Who prepares evidence?

  • What must be ready before production launch?

See:

Final output of the kickoff

Do not end the meeting with only open discussion.

Leave with a written decision log for:

  • chosen booking flow

  • pricing refresh rule

  • payment mode

  • polling rule

  • ancillary scope

  • post-booking ownership

  • UAT owner

  • go-live prerequisites
