Room/Rate Request

This message will allow Levart to request the 3^rd party send back room and rate information back to Levart.

This will allow Levart to easily map the room/rate without any 3^rd party intervention if a property decides to add or remove rooms and/or rates.

Warning: Although this is a conforming OTA message it isn’t the typical way in that it is used (its primary use is for availability checking)

Direction

Levart can send request to 3^rd Party and expect a response.

For every RoomStay element it will contain valid combination of 1 Room and 1 Rate. If there are just rooms provided (such as how Wotif has room offers) just simply list them as a RoomType only with no RatePlan.
