Indicates the creation date and time of the message in UTC using the following format specified by ISO 8601; YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ with time values using the 24 hour clock (e.g. 20 November 2003, 1:59:38 pm UTC becomes 2003-11-20T13:59:38Z).
When true, the response should include rooms with an availability status of 'on request'. When false, the response should not include rooms with an availability status of 'on request'.
The value of this attribute will be a decimal field identifying the maximum number of seconds the responding application has to respond to the request. For example, suppose a client requests 10 OTA 'AvailRequestSegment' items but can only wait up to 4.0 seconds max. If only 6 segments were collected within the time-frame, the client would only receive those 6 segments within one response message.
A boolean flag that indicates the response message should return only HotelStay information. If true, no RoomStay information will be returned.
This indicates where this message falls within a sequence of messages.
Identifies the alternate language for a customer or message. The human language is identified by ISO 639 codes.
Used to identify the sequence number of the transaction as assigned by the sending system; allows for an application to process messages in a certain order or to request a resynchronization of messages in the event that a system has been off-line and needs to retrieve messages that were missed.
Used to indicate whether the request is for the Test or Production system.
A positive integer value that indicates the maximum number of responses desired in the return.
Identifes the primary language preference for the message. The human language is identified by ISO 639 codes.
A boolean flag that indicates the response message should include availability and rates that do not span the complete stay.
A boolean flag that indicates the response message should send back only those rates that are an exact match to the requested criteria.
A boolean flag that indicates the response message should send back only those rates that are available within the range of the minimum and maximum amount specified.
A boolean flag that indicates the response message should send back only the best rate available at the hotel property, as there could be multiple room types and rates that meet the requested criteria (e.g.: rate range). Allowing that the term "best rate" is subjective, the intent means the lowest rate that meets the category of the input criteria, and may have the effect of limiting the return to one rate quote as opposed to multiples.
For all OTA versioned messages, the version of the message is indicated by a decimal value.
If true, the response message should contain room rate details.
A boolean flag that indicates the response should include ONLY those rates that are available in the date range specified, or whether rates that are NOT available should be shown. "Yes" returns only available rates; "No" returns all rates.
Requests availability of hotel properties by specific criteria that may include: dates, date ranges, price range, room types, regular and qualifying rates, and/or services and amenities. The availability message can be used to get an initial availability or to get availability for the purpose of modifying an existing reservation.

Indicates that this is an availibility request for a modification to an existing reservation.
A reference for additional message identification, assigned by the requesting host system. When a request message includes an echo token the corresponding response message MUST include an echo token with an identical value.
A unique identifier to relate all messages within a transaction (e.g. this would be sent in all request and response messages that are part of an on-going transaction).
