visit www.snaptutorial.com   Class, a rather
large component of the hospitality industry is
the discussion around revenue. We've been
discussing how business segments revolve around
tourism and I teach a few other hospitality
courses and I've been finding that students are
coming not as prepared to understand how these
tourism areas make money. I thought I would
introduce you to the STAR (Smith Travel) report
and we will continue this discussion throughout
the upcoming weeks. While this is a subscription
service that most hotels participate in using,

organizations have ethics training classes built
into their core competencies structure and human
resources tracks the attendance, but I do think
that leaders have choices of ethical behavior no
matter if they've had proper training or not.

the difference between black and white cannot be
distinguished.

industry has been greatly impacted when it comes
to reservations systems. Before, travelers would
have to call the property and reserve a room
which was written down on paper with a pencil.
Now, the lodging industry has access to computer
software systems like PMS support to maintain
guest reservations, histories of stays, guest
loyalty programs, maintaining room management, as
well as including A/R and A/P information. For
example, Marriott International has two separate
PMS to choose from, MARSHA and FOSSE. FOSSE
allows associates to handle all information
related to guests with the computer.
