What's new in GDS LAB
Every update shipped to the platform: terminal intelligence, command library, design and new services.
- Terminal
The full cryptic reference is inside the terminal
Over 500 Amadeus, Sabre and Travelport entries were added to the command library and the terminal. Entries without a full simulation now return a realistic system-style screen plus one teaching line, instead of an unknown-command error.
- Content
Search in Topics, and a waiting list for Courses
The topics library got a search box and category filters. The Courses page now lets you leave your name and contact to be notified when the first course is published.
- Content
LinkedIn job search from the Careers page
Every job title now has a LinkedIn search helper: choose the role, country and city, then open a live LinkedIn job search in a new tab with one click.
- Content
Careers section and a feedback page
A new Careers guide covers eight job titles with duties, skills, required entries, a 4-week study plan, CV tips, interview questions and official sources. A new feedback page lets anyone send ideas or report problems privately.
- Platform
Typed exam tasks, answer review and a new certificate
Exams now mix multiple choice with typed real entries (names, infants, seats, full PNR build), the result page reviews every answer with the correct entry and why, higher levels ask more questions in less time, and the certificate has a new premium design.
- Content
Courses section added — coming soon
A Courses page is now live as a preview: video courses by Hazem Magdy are in production and will be published on YouTube, then linked here lesson by lesson next to the terminal. Nothing is live yet.
- Terminal
Sabre now uses the real ¥ change key
Every Sabre entry in the terminal and the command library uses ¥ exactly like the live system (W¥ETR¥, WFR¥, WRE¥, PE¥, 4G1¥12A, 120SEPCAILHR¥MS). A ¥ button appears next to the input when Sabre is selected, and ‡ or * are still accepted.
- Terminal
Airline-specific availability and realistic ticket numbers
Search one carrier's flights (AN20SEPCAILHR/MS) from a much larger airline and airport database. Ticket, void, refund and reissue now use real airline prefixes with a check digit, and unknown entries are corrected with a teaching hint. HELP shows your current step; STEPS shows the whole booking path.
- Terminal
The terminal now learns from you
Every attempt is scored, your weak areas are remembered on this device, and the coach line points you back to them next session. Anonymous aggregates also show which topics visitors struggle with most.
- Terminal
Daily challenge
A new practice scenario is highlighted every day, the same one for everybody, so you always have something fresh to train on.
- Design
Appearance customizer
Pick your accent color, corner style, heading font and page texture from the palette button in the header. Your choice is remembered on your device.
- Platform
Paid consultation channel
A floating button now opens a direct paid-consultation request over WhatsApp or email, with the pricing stated up front.
