Catalog

This is the overall collection of things that can be browsed through and bought by Traveler or Crew Member. The items in the catalogue are enabled via Management Console.

Catalogitem

This is a specific item that can be seen in the catalogue and purchased. Its details are viewed on its detail page. It can be purchased individually or in combination with other items. The types of items include: experience item (e.g. stuff provided through Simplenight), flight service item (e.g. jump the line, upgrade seat, etc), Buy on Board item (e.g. sandwich, blanket, etc).

Experience item

This is a catalogue item. These pertain to the between flights or before/after flight activities that a Traveler or Crew Member might want to do. There are 7 types: tours, activities, dining, shows, nightlife, car service, hotel food and board. There might be 1 more type coming up: parking (this is TBD). Each type has its own attributes necessary to be captured at the time of placement into shopping cart or when the item is being put into wishlist or into journey. The types have a priority we are working on them in and each one has its own user story in waffle backlog.

Flight

This is specifically referring to one flight done by traveller on one plane, e.g. from Toronto to London. It could be one of the many legs in the journey that the Traveller will do. We'll be able to help Traveller construct their overall journey through the concept of journey where they would be able to specify how many legs they'll be doing. E.g. Toronto To London, London to Paris. or Toronto to London, London to Paris, Paris to London, London to Toronto. Return trip or one way.
